Media Release Electricity Tariff Revision for the Period 1 April to 30 June 2022 Singapore, 31 March 2022 – For the period from 1 April to 30 June 2022, electricity tariff (before 7% GST) will increase by an average of 9.9% or 2.49 cents per kWh compared with the previous quarter. The increase is mainly due to higher energy cost arising from significantly higher global gas and oil prices exacerbated by the conflict in Ukraine. For details on the components of the electricity tariff, please refer to Appendix 1: Breakdown of Electricity Tariff. For households, the electricity tariff (before 7% GST) will increase from 25.44 to 27.94 cents per kWh for 1 April to 30 June 2022. The average monthly electricity bill for families living in HDB four-room flats will increase by $8.73 (before 7% GST) (Appendix 3: Average monthly electricity bills of domestic consumers). *before 7% GST SP Group reviews the electricity tariffs every quarter based on guidelines set by the electricity industry regulator, Energy Market Authority (EMA).

SP Group’s Mr Goh Chee Kiong (right) and Grab’s Mr Lim Kell Jay with a Hyundai Ioniq electric car. Grab says that it will give more details of the 200 electric cars later this year. PHOTO: GRAB, SP GROUP 200 electric cars up for Grab from next year Zhaki Abdullah Ride-hailing firm Grab will bring in 200 new electric cars from next year, as part of a partnership with energy utilities provider SP Group. Grab said yesterday the new vehicles, which will hit the roads progressively from early next year, will be available through its rental arm GrabRentals. Under the partnership, Grab drivers will enjoy preferential rates at SP Group’s electric-vehicle charging stations and discounted parking when their cars are being charged. In June, SP Group announced that it would introduce a network of 500 fast-charging stations by 2020 to be placed in areas such as housing estates and business parks, with the first 30 to be set up by the end of this year. Grab said it would work with SP Group to study usage patterns of its electric vehicles to improve the accessibility and utilisation of charging stations. The Singapore-based ride-hailing firm said more details regarding cost of charging, as well as the electric vehicle models to be used, will be available by the end of this year. It said, however, the cars will have a range of 400km per charge, which allows for a full day of driving on 40 minutes of charging. Mr Goh Chee Kiong, SP Group’s strategic development head, said the partnership with Grab will help “accelerate the wider adoption of EVs (electric vehicles) in Singapore and support the nation’s efforts to reduce our carbon footprint”. “With SP joining our consortium of EV partners, Grab is in a unique position to help drive a cleaner, greener Singapore by encouraging more of our drivers to adopt EVs,” said Grab Singapore head Lim Kell Jay. While fully-electric cars are already available through Grab, their numbers are not known. Green vehicles have taken off recently, with the number of electric and plug-in hybrid cars here at 647 as of last month, up from 137 two years ago. Taxi giant ComfortDelGro introduced two fully-electric Hyundai Ioniq cabs to its fleet last month as part of a one-year trial, while HDT Singapore Taxi will expand its fully-electric fleet from 100 currently to 800 by July 2022. azhaki@sph.com.sg

The digital board provides real-time figures of a block’s aggregated water and electricity consumption and the resulting carbon emissions generated over the previous 24 hours. PHOTO: TAMPINES TOWN COUNCIL/FACEBOOK ‘Eco boards’ to track utilities usage at five Tampines HDB blocks Rei Kurohi Residents from about 633 households staying in five Housing Board blocks in Tampines can now track their blocks’ utilities usage at “eco boards” installed at their lift lobbies under a pilot programme. The digital boards provide real-time figures of the block’s aggregated water and electricity consumption and the resulting carbon emissions generated over the previous 24 hours. They also offer residents tips on lowering their utilities consumption and will let them take part in energy-saving challenges through competitions with other blocks. Speaking at the launch event yesterday morning at Block 878A in Tampines Avenue 8, Minister for Social and Family Development Masagos Zulkifli said the eco boards are part of the Tampines Town Council’s effort to make the estate Singapore’s first “eco town”. Mr Masagos, who is the MP for the Tampines West ward of Tampines GRC, noted that Singapore is aiming to reduce the amount of water used by households to 130 litres per person daily by 2030, down from the current amount of about 140 litres daily. “To get there, there are a lot of things that need to be done. First, we need to get information to our residents for them to know how they compare with others in terms of usage and what they can do to reduce their water usage over time.” Three other Tampines GRC MPs – Ms Cheng Li Hui, Mr Desmond Choo and Mr Baey Yam Keng – also attended the launch. More eco boards will be installed at five other blocks in Tampines over the next two months under the pilot, which will last about six months. The programme is the result of a partnership between Tampines Town Council and utilities provider SP Group, which designed and developed the boards. Mr Chang Sau Sheong, chief executive of energy tech company SP Digital under SP Group, said during the launch that the boards will complement the SP Utilities app, which was rolled out in 2015 to let consumers track their individual consumption. On top of its main aim to change residents’ behaviour and nudge them to reduce their consumption, the boards will also help the town council and municipal operators improve estate management efficiency by enabling them to monitor utilities used for common areas. This will allow them to pick up any anomalies and react quickly, Mr Chang said. “Today, what they have is end of the month (figures). This is often too late, say, if there’s a leakage in the water supply or some issues with the electricity usage.” rei@sph.com.sg
