SP Group’s electric-vehicle chargers grow to 200 islandwide Christopher Tan Senior Transport Correspondent SP Group has installed 200 electric-vehicle (EV) charging points across the island, four times the number it had as at June this year. Giving an update on its roll-out, the utility group said yesterday the 200 points include 52 direct current (DC) fast chargers. By next year, SP is targeting 1,000 charging points, of which 250 will be high-speed DC chargers. DC fast chargers are seen to be most convenient for users who need to charge their vehicles on the go. They can charge up a car in as little as 30 minutes, compared with six to eight hours for a normal charger. SP said some of its DC charging 52 Number of direct current (DC) fast chargers, out of the 200 charging points, installed across the island. 30 mins How long it takes for a DC fast charger to charge up a car, compared with six to eight hours for a normal charger. points are in the Central Business District, with Republic Plaza being the first commercial building in the CBD to host a fast charger. Other new charging locations include Orchard Road, Sentosa and Paya Lebar. EV drivers visiting Orchard Road can now charge their cars at Shaw Centre. Elsewhere, Resorts World Sentosa is hosting Sentosa’s first fast chargers, while a cluster of 20 charging points are at Paya Lebar Quarter. SP Group’s head of strategic development Goh Chee Kiong said: “Our aim is to drive green mobility in Singapore. By building the largest and fastest public EV charging network islandwide, we reduce range anxiety and shorten the time needed to charge the vehicles.” Mr Christopher Wehner, managing director of BMW Group Asia, said: “BMW still believes electrification is the future in Singapore, and it’s clear we aren’t the only ones. “I find it extremely heartening to see companies such as SP Group invest in the development of the charging infrastructure and in key areas of Singapore.” He described the race to mass adoption of electrified vehicles as a marathon, not a sprint, adding that it will be won only if companies work together to provide a complete ecosystem. “BMW Asia is doing its part by continually introducing the latest EVs and plug-in hybrids into the market,” added Mr Wehner. Currently, BMW has one electric model – the i3 – and a number of plug-in hybrids, which still have an internal combustion engine but can cover up to 50km on pure electric mode. Hyundai agent Komoco, which currently has two electric models, said: “We’re glad that electric car charging stations are now more readily available and conveniently located for the public.” christan@sph.com.sg Source: The Straits Times © Singapore Press Holdings Limited.

Permission required for reproduction. Singapore AMERICAN conglomerate General Electric on Wednesday opened an Asia Digital Operations Centre (A-DOC) in Singapore as part of a commitment to develop digital industrial capabilities in the city-state. Underlining the new thrust in Singapore, it also signed partnership agreements with grid operator SP Group, Spring Singapore and Singapore Institute of Management’s entrepreneurship centre Platform E. The group’s A-DOC is the first such centre in Asia, and is part of a larger strategy by the company to transform how IT is delivered across the group. The centre, which helps provide round-the-clock IT resources and support for GE, will house about 60 employees initially, with the potential to expand software jobs three-fold over the next five years. Separately, GE has also teamed up with SP Group, formerly known as Singapore Power, to develop capabilities in Industrial Internet of Things and intelligent applications so as to enhance the reliability and efficiency of the power network in Singapore. Specifically, engineering and digital experts from both companies will work to create a digital replica of the Singapore grid, known as a “digital twin”, which will enhance the performance of the network and reduce unplanned downtime. Having a digital twin of the network is akin to providing the doctor with health data every minute instead of going for a medical check-up once a month, SP chief digital officer Samuel Tan explained. With the real-time data, abnormal activity can be picked up more quickly, allowing for predictive maintenance that reduces costs, he told The Business Times. Data about the performance of the grid can also be compared with those from other grids around the world, allowing SP to enhance the grid’s performance further, he said, adding that these could potentially result in lower costs. SP is the first utility to work with GE on a digital twin; results from the partnership can be expected within 12-18 months, Mr Tan said. GE is also collaborating with Spring Singapore to develop a startup incubation and acceleration programme to promote ideas and solutions in Industrial IoT technology. These include agile programming, machine learning and algorithms for asset performance management, and cybersecurity. Similarly, it plans to establish a co-working space with Platform E to incubate Industrial IoT startups in Singapore and the region. “The Industrial Internet represents a multi-billion dollar opportunity for industry,” said GE chairman and CEO Jeff Immelt in a statement. “We look forward to working with our partners in Singapore to build a digital ecosystem and support entrepreneurship in the country.” Washington ues every year,” Oxfam senior adviser holders at the expense of important Separately, THE 50 largest US companies, including Apple, Microsoft and Wal-Mart, Apple is at the top of the ranking And the drastic reduction in cor- Singapore Shipping Forum 2017 Robbie GE Silverman has said. also teamed anti-poverty programmes. up with SP Group, are formerly parking about US$1.6 known trillion in with as more than Singapore US$200 billion offshore funds, followed closely by Pfstructive race to the bottom that has The Future of Shipping: Game Changers Power, porate income tax to will “feed develop into a de- capabilities in offshore tax havens to reduce their US tax burden, according to a study izer laboratories (US$193.6 billion) seen countries across the globe slash- published on Wednesday.

Media Release Electricity Tariff Revision For The Period 1 January to 31 March 2024 Singapore, 29 December 2023 – For the period from 1 January to 31 March 2024, the electricity tariff (before GST) for households will increase by 4.1% or 1.19 cents per kWh compared with the previous quarter. The average monthly electricity bill for families living in HDB four-room flats will increase by $4.39 (before GST). This is due to higher energy costs (as detailed in Appendix 1) compared with the previous quarter. *before GST Singaporean households living in HDB flats will receive U-Save rebates in January 2024 to offset their utility including electricity bills, as part of the permanent GST Voucher (GSTV) scheme and the Assurance Package, to help defray GST and provide cost-of-living support for lower- to middle-income households. Electricity tariffs (before GST), including tariffs for non-households, will increase by an average of 4.3% or 1.18 cents per kWh compared with the previous quarter. SP Group reviews the electricity tariffs every quarter based on guidelines set by the electricity industry regulator, Energy Market Authority (EMA). Please refer to Appendix 1 for the components of the electricity tariff, Appendix 2 for the tariffs approved by EMA, and Appendix 3 for the average monthly electricity bills for households.

Taking Heart Big boost to funds for the elderly THE Singapore Power Heartware Fund – which supports more than 31,000 beneficiaries under Community Chest’s 26 programmes for the elderly – received a S$600,000 boost on Friday, through Singapore Power’s annual charity golf event. The figure represents the largest amount ever raised in the event’s 10-year history. The fund helps to provide services such as dementia day care, hospice care, community homes and caregiver support to the elderly. As part of the Care & Share Movement that Community Chest is leading this year, the funds will also be matched dollar-for-dollar by the government. The matched amount will go towards building the capabilities of the social service sector.
