As Singapore has limited renewable energy capacity, it would be more viable to import green hydrogen produced in other countries. By 2035, some small-scale trials using imported green hydrogen could be in place. Mr Chen
SINGAPORE - A new Future Energy Fund with an initial injection of $5 billion will be set up to help build the critical infrastructure needed for Singapore''s shift to low-carbon electricity, said
Singapore''s proactive stance on renewable energy reflects its commitment to mitigating climate change and ensuring future energy security. Despite its limited land and industrial landscape, Singapore has set ambitious targets for renewable energy adoption, aiming to achieve net-zero by 2050, with the public sector reaching net-zero by 2045.
The global energy transition from fossil fuels to low-carbon energy is a complex process which will require significant investments by all countries. Singapore is further challenged by our lack of domestic renewable energy resources.

Highlights on how Singapore is transforming the way it produces energy through the Four Switches — Solar Energy, Regional Power Grids, Low-Carbon Alternatives, and Natural Gas, as well as ramping up efforts to manage demand.
Singapore''s overall capacity remains robust and adaptable, despite the decommissioning of older generation units. The increasing trend in the solar generation capacity over the years is expected to continue, further bolstering Singapore''s renewable energy development and sustainability efforts.
2nd Switch: Solar – This remains Singapore''s most promising renewable energy source. We are on track to reach our solar target of 350 megawatt-peak (MWp) by 2020. The Government is working towards achieving a new solar target of at least 2 gigawatt-peak (GWp) by 2030, and an energy storage deployment target of 200 MW beyond 2025.
In Singapore as an example, given that 95% of Singapore''s electricity mix comes from natural gas, a non-renewable energy source, in order to meet net zero targets, companies will need to purchase the equivalent amount of RECs (in megawatt-hours) to offset their electricity consumption from the electrical grid.
Renewable heat. Renewables also have an important role in providing heat for buildings and industrial processes. To achieve decarbonisation and energy saving objectives, many countries are encouraging individual homes and buildings to shift from fossil fuel heating systems such as gas- or oil-fired boilers to systems like heat pumps which are much more

With the limited renewable energy options available to us and the current technological capabilities, we are not able to generate sufficient baseload electricity from renewable sources reliably for Singapore. Nevertheless, Singapore aims to deploy at least 2 gigawatt-peak of solar energy by 2030.
For most of its energy security and production, Singapore relies on liquefied natural gas (LNG) and oil. On the other hand, Singapore’s renewable energy initiative is led by solar power. Singapore has reached its target of 350 MWp solar production (its 2020 green energy agenda goal) and is targeting 2 GW by 2030.
Currently, renewables account for about 5% of Singapore’s total electricity generation, with solar power being the main contributor. Singapore has set an ambitious target to increase its renewable energy capacity to at least 2 gigawatts peak by 2030.
As Singapore transitions towards cleaner energy sources, reliable and sufficient energy sources are needed to ensure supply reliability. Natural gas will continue to be a dominant fuel for Singapore’s electricity generation even as we scale up the other 3 Switches.
Hydroelectric power cannot be harnessed, as Singapore does not have a river system with fast flowing water throughout the year. We do not have geothermal energy sources, as there are no adequate near-surface underground geothermal energy sources in Singapore for conventional geothermal systems deployment.
