PHOTO: SCREENGRAB FROM GOOGLE MAPS Lee Nian Tjoe Senior Transport Correspondent PUBLISHED JUN 30, 2022, 5:40 PM SGT SINGAPORE - Residents in Tengah town will have access to various electrified Toyota models through a car-sharing pilot between Toyota distributor Borneo Motors and energy provider SP Group. The announcement was made at a signing ceremony for the memorandum of understanding between the two parties on Thursday (June 30). When launched in June next year, the cars can be booked through the SP smartphone app or the Kinto Share app operated by Borneo Motors. This will be the first time that users of SP Group's services can hire a car through its smartphone app. Ms Jasmine Wong, the chief executive of Inchcape Singapore and Greater China, which owns Borneo Motors, said: "With this initiative, we combine our expertise in electrified vehicles with SP Group's eco-charging solutions to embark on a significant step in steering the nation towards a more responsible and sustainable way of living." In addition, Borneo Motors and SP Group will set up an innovation and experience centre in the housing estate to help Tengah residents learn about sustainable mobility solutions. Borneo Motors launched Kinto Share last year for its on-demand car-sharing service with Lexus models. On its website, prices for daily rental start from $198. The collaboration with SP Group will see the vehicles being parked at dedicated carparks in the Tengah township. The exact details are still being worked out. This is the first time Kinto Share will serve a housing estate. Currently, users of the car-sharing service pick up the vehicles from the Lexus Boutique in Leng Kee Road. They can also pay for doorstep delivery and retrieval. SP Group and Borneo Motors are also conducting joint research in electrification, focusing on areas such as user behaviour and vehicle energy consumption, to further develop their future electric mobility programmes. The pilot, which runs for five years, will initially have eight Toyota models, seven of which are hybrids that do not require access to an EV charger. The eighth is the bZ4X, the Japanese car brand's first fully-electric vehicle, which will be officially launched in Singapore by then. A plug-in hybrid model is said to be in the pipeline. To encourage take-up, Tengah residents will be offered preferential rates for both the car rental and EV charging. Located in the western part of Singapore, Tengah consists of five districts with 42,000 residential units. Touted as a "smart-energy town", it features EV-ready carparks. Solar panels located on the top of residential blocks supply the needed electricity to power selected parking lots with EV chargers.

Located at Labrador, SP will build its 230kV electrical substation underground to optimise space in land-scarce Singapore for urban growth and development. The substation alone will free up three hectares of prime land space, or the equivalent of four football fields. When in service, the substation will serve the electricity needs of nearby towns such as Alexandra, Clementi, Keppel, Pasir Panjang, and the Science Park district. Group Chief Executive Officer of SP Group, Stanley Huang, said: “In our business of enabling a low carbon, smart energy future, we are building sustainable and resilient infrastructure. Taking a holistic approach, we are constructing this substation underground, freeing up space above for a 34-storey development. This is in line with Singapore’s urban renewal plans and our own United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals of ensuring access to reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all and tapping on innovation to build sustainable infrastructure.” In addition to optimising land resources for other purposes, underground substations have a lower risk of being exposed and damaged. This will enhance asset and network security. The Labrador underground substation is part of the Urban Redevelopment Authority’s underground Master Plan 2019. The underground electricity substation at Labrador and an above-ground commercial building are scheduled for completion in 2024.

Besides the filters, the condition of other components such as the refrigerant, pipe and motor also affects energy efficiency. • Clean the filters regularly. Dirty filters impede airflow and cause energy wastage • Set the air-conditioner temperature to 25℃ or higher. The lower the temperature, the more electricity used. • Choose an inverter air-conditioner. • Shut the doors and windows when using air-conditioners. Computer • Switch off your computer completely when not in use for long periods. • Enable the power management features of your computer, such as switching to lower power sleep mode or hibernation mode after idling for a certain amount of time (e.g., more than 5 minutes). • Choose a laptop over a desktop as laptops consume less electricity. Iron • Start with clothes that require lower temperatures (e.g., silk and wool) before ironing those that require higher temperatures (e.g., cotton). This will prevent unnecessary heating, cooling, reheating. • Select the temperatures for the various fabrics. Overheating the iron will not only waste electricity, but also damage your clothes. BATHROOM Water Heater • If you have an instantaneous water heater, switch it on before you shower and switch it off immediately after use. • Cut down on long showers. Taking shorter showers save both electricity and water. Did you know? Unlike instantaneous water heaters, storage water heaters continue to use energy to heat water when they are left switched on. KITCHEN Refrigerator • Cover liquids and food stored in the refrigerator. Uncovered items release moisture, forcing the compressor to work harder to keep the temperature low. • Allow food to cool before putting them into the refrigerator. Hot food causes the compressor to work harder to keep the temperature low. • Do not overload the refrigerator to ensure that cold air can circulate freely. • Do not place the refrigerator near heat sources such as stoves, ovens or direct sunlight. The higher the ambient temperature, the more energy the refrigerator consumes. Instead, place the refrigerator in a cool place with good circulation. • Allow some space around the refrigerator to enable heat to escape from the compressor and condensing coil. • Do not open the refrigerator door unnecessarily. • Do not leave the refrigerator door open longer than necessary. Decide what you need from the refrigerator beforehand. • Set the refrigerator to the recommended temperature. • Thaw frozen food in the refrigerator instead of using the microwave oven. • Ensure that your refrigerator door seals are airtight. Electric Airport • Boil water only when needed. • Use a thermal flask to store hot water. KITCHEN Cooking Habits • Cover the pot while cooking. Food cooks faster in covered pots. • Match the size of the pot with the size of the burner. Energy is lost when small pots are used on larger burners. • Use a microwave oven to cook or warm leftovers instead of a conventional oven. • Use an over timer instead of opening the oven door to check your food. • Clean your cooking appliances regularly so that heat can be transferred more efficiently. • Check the seal on your oven door for cracks or tears to retain heat more effectively. • Plan your cooking procedures and prepare your ingredients ahead to reduce unnecessary energy usage. Washing Machine and Dryer • Wash with an optimal laundry load to maximise energy savings. • Use the right amount of detergent to avoid washing or rinsing the load unnecessarily. • Pre-soak or use a soak cycle for heavily soiled garments to avoid two washing cycles. • Use the economy mode to save energy. • Select a clothes dryer with energy-saving features, such as the ability to strop drying once it senses that the clothes are sufficiently dry. • Dry with an optimal laundry load whenever possible. Save even more energy by air-drying lightweight items and using the clothes dryer only for heavier items. • Choose a clothes dryer of suitable capacity that meets your family needs. LIVING ROOM Lighting • Choose energy-saving lighting such as compact fluorescent lamps and LED bulbs. Avoid incandescent lamps. • Use dimmers, timers or sensors to control the level and duration of lighting needed. • Clean lamps and light fixtures regularly. Dust on lamps and reflectors reduces light transmission. • Whenever possible, use natural light for your lighting needs. Television • Dim the light while watching television. This saves electricity while cutting glare from the screen. • Always switch off your TV set-top box at the power socket as it consumes the highest standby power. • Lower the brightness and contrast settings of your TV. Standby Mode • Switch off your home appliances at the power socket when they are not in use. Standby power can account for up to 10% of your home energy use.
