Energy Market Authority (EMA)

Electricity powers our lights, devices, and everyday life. But do you know what technologies are behind Singapore’s electricity supply?   From Combined Cycle Gas Turbines to solar PV, here’s a breakdown of technologies generating Singapore’s electricity supply.   Learn more in our Singapore Energy Statistics at https://lnkd.in/gRxchTjr   #EMAsg #Energy

Hear from GOH Chia Jin from our Energy Management Systems Department in our first episode of Make It Simple. This is where we break down complex energy topics into bite-sized insights.   In our first episode, we talk about electricity. Find out why electricity supply has to meet demand for a reliable power system.    #EMAsg #EnergySecurity #MakeItSimple

Our Assistant Chief Executive Xin Wei Low and colleagues hosted an industry workshop on Virtual Power Plants (VPPs) and their role in Singapore's energy transition. The workshop welcomed 50 attendees from the energy industry and institutes of higher learning. We had experts from NARI Group Corporation, GRIDWIZ and Integrate To Zero to share valuable insights on how these systems can support our power infrastructure and benefit consumers. As Singapore works towards its net-zero goal by 2050, we will see more distributed energy resources like solar panels and energy storage systems across the island. VPPs can play an important role by aggregating these resources to function as a single power generation source, thereby better supporting our power grid’s reliability. Is your business interested in participating in our regulatory sandbox for VPPs?

Our colleagues had a literally fruitful day out with children from Children's Wishing Well, our adopted charity. We took the children grocery shopping for their family and to learn about budgeting and healthier eating habits.   Watch as LIYANA GAFOOR from our External Relations Department, guides a child through the supermarket aisles to pick out groceries for her family!   #EMAsg #CSR

Over 18,000 delegates from more than 70 countries came together to connect and discuss the latest advancements in clean energy technologies and policies at #SIEW2024. We also announced many exciting plans in our energy transition, from a grant call to study carbon capture and storage pathways to importing electricity from the region. These developments collectively demonstrate the growing momentum towards a cleaner and more sustainable energy future. Read our full feature story at https://lnkd.in/g7YGkeP6 #SIEW #SIEW2024

Singapore’s first hydrogen-compatible power plant saw its gas turbine installed at the Keppel Sakra Cogen Plant. This plant will play an important role in our energy transition to a low-carbon future. Congratulations to Keppel Ltd. on this significant milestone!  

Our Chief Executive Kok Keong Puah Kok Keong and colleagues shared the benefits of EMA’s Demand Response (DR) programme at the recent IdeasFest 2.0. This is an event organised by the Public Service Division for government agencies to showcase innovative projects. Our DR programme incentivises businesses to reduce or shift their electricity consumption during peak demand periods. This enhances the reliability of Singapore’s power system and reduces its overall system cost. Between 2023 and mid-2024, the programme has resulted in over $700 million in savings for electricity buyers in the Singapore Wholesale Electricity Market.

As the year draws to a close, we recap the significant strides we have made in our energy transition, and our plans for the future as we journey towards net-zero. Read on in our latest edition of #WattsOn. #EMAsg

On behalf of Chief Executive of Energy Market Authority (EMA) I was honoured to participate in the Singapore-Sweden Royal Business Forum yesterday alongside distinguished speakers. Good discussions on the energy collaboration between both countries to accelerate energy transitions and facilitate regional integration and infrastructure financing. Looking forward to stronger cooperation between EMA and Sweden Ministry of Climate and Enterprise under our newly established MOU in conjunction with the Royal State Visit of His Majesty.

We signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Sweden's Ministry of Climate and Enterprise on energy collaboration. This will include key areas such as advancing High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) technologies, developing transmission infrastructure, and to facilitate deeper knowledge exchanges on ammonia and hydrogen, nuclear safety, and cooperation to accelerate Singapore’s decarbonisation pathways.   This partnership will contribute to our efforts to advance the energy transition and strengthen energy resiliency.   The MOU was signed at the State Visit of Sweden to Singapore.   Our Director of External Relations Jonathan Goh participated in a panel to share more about Singapore's energy transition and how we can work with Sweden to strengthen regional interconnectivity and the adoption of clean energy technologies.   Read more on the MOU at https://lnkd.in/gDe7SrMr   #EMAsg #EnergySustainability #EnergySector
