Media Statement GAS SUPPLY DISRUPTION ALONG JURONG WEST ST 65 Singapore, 5 May 2017 – Gas supply along Jurong West St 65 was disrupted at 1514hrs today, due to a gas leak. The gas leak was caused by damage to an underground pipe when a third-party contractor, Gerrich International Pte Ltd, was carrying out works there. A fire broke out at the void deck of Block 663D, as a result of the gas leak. SCDF was activated to put out the fire. Our engineers were immediately dispatched to the site. Our priority is to ensure the safety of everyone in the vicinity. As a precautionary measure, the valves to our gas pipes were shut off to isolate the leak, for our engineers to repair the damaged pipe and restore supply. During this period, supply to 1,305 households in 12 blocks (663A, 663B, 663C, 663D, 664A, 664B, 664C, 664D, 665A, 665B, 666A and 666B Jurong West St 65) was affected. Gas supply to 8 blocks (663A, 663B, 663C, 663D, 664A, 664B, 664C and 664D) was restored by 1920hrs and to the remaining blocks (665A, 665B, 666A and 666B) by 2100hrs. We thank the residents for their understanding and patience. Members of the public who have enquiries can contact the City Gas hotline at 1800-752-1800.

31 Mar 2014 For Immediate Release MEDIA RELEASE ELECTRICITY TARIFF REVISION FOR THE PERIOD 1 APRIL TO 30 JUNE 2014 1. For the period from 1 Apr to 30 Jun 2014, electricity tariffs will increase by an average of 0.3% or 0.07 cent per kWh. The increase is due to a 1.3% rise in fuel costs, which was partially mitigated by a reduction in non-fuel costs. 2. For households, the electricity tariff will increase from 25.65 to 25.73 cents per kWh for 1 Apr to 30 Jun 2014. The average monthly electricity bill for families living in four-room HDB flats will increase by $0.26 (see Appendix 3 for the average increase for different household types). 3. SP Services reviews the electricity tariffs quarterly based on guidelines set by the Energy Market Authority (EMA), the electricity industry regulator. The tariffs given in Appendix 1 have been approved by the EMA. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________ Issued by: SP Services Limited 10 Pasir Panjang Road #03-01 Mapletree Business City Singapore 117438 Co.

More solar means more investment: SP More infrastructure needed to handle two-way flow when supply rises in future By RONNIE LIM ronnie@sph.com.sg SINGAPORE Power (SP), which handles electricity and gas transmission and distribution here, will need to make a “significant investment” in additional infrastructure to handle a two-way power flow in the electricity grid when supply from intermittent generation sources, including solar energy, ramps up in future, said its CEO Wong Kim Yin. Speaking to BT on the sidelines of the Electricity Roundtable yesterday, Mr Wong said that while SP’s existing infrastructure can handle the just-announced increase this week in the current cap on intermittent generation sources from 350 megawatts to 600 MW, SP will have to boost its infrastructure if this is further upped beyond 1,000 MW later. The new 600 MW cap announced by the government represents around 10 per cent of current peak electricity demand in Singapore of 6,000 MW. The cap Mr Wong: Power market liberalisation has brought capital inflows of over $78 billion in last five years is to ensure there is sufficient electricity reserve (from the gencos) to back up the intermittent energy sources and ensure power system stability. Mr Wong explained that presently power is transmitted via copper cables, which are stronger or thicker nearer the power source, like a power station, with this “stepped down” as it progresses down the chain from sub-stations to industries or homes. “The existing transmission system is already two-way in that homes with solar panels already sell back some of their generated electricity to the grid,” Mr Wong said. But when supplies from such intermittent sources, like solar energy, increase significantly, SP will need to make “a significant investment” to build up system capability to handle this. But he declined to give specifics, like the investment dollars needed, at this stage. Already, the Housing Development Board is stepping up its use of solar energy in flats here, while other new projects like the Singapore Sports Hub are also adopting solar panel use to meet some of its electricity needs. This is why government this week said it is preparing the power system here to “effectively incorporate solar energy as it becomes commercially viable”. Apart from raising the current cap on intermittent generation sources here, regulator Energy Market Authority has also launched a public consultation on a regulatory framework for such power sources. In his presentation, Mr Wong – who as senior managing director of Temasek Holdings previously had handled its divestment of the three biggest gencos here – said that liberalisation of the power market here has proven successful. “Market liberalisation here has attracted capital inflows of over $78 billion into the power sector over the last five years. And SP alone has spent capex of $5.4 billion to improve pipelines and the power grid, with this raised from capital markets,” he said. On this, David Wong, director and chairman of Energy Market Company’s audit committee, noted that while gencos have invested in more efficient gas-firing plants to generate electricity competitively, surging fuel prices have led to a steady increase in the spot or wholesale electricity price over the last decade. “Compared to 2003, the wholesale electricity price has almost doubled to $179 per megawatt hour in the first three quarters of 2013,” he said, adding that economic growth has fuelled electricity demand, putting upward pressure on prices. This in turn has attracted investment in new plants, and “an outcome of this is that the wholesale electricity price has in actual fact softened, and is currently 19 per cent lower than last year”.
