6 FAQs about [Singapore overseas solar power generation]

Can Singapore import low-cost solar power from neighbouring countries?

Singapore could import large quantities of low-cost solar power from neighbouring countries using undersea cables, with the indicative cost being competitive with gas generation. Unlimited world-class pumped hydro energy storage is available in neighbouring countries in the range 50-5000 GWh to support very large scale transmission.

Can Singapore get solar energy?

Presently, Singapore relies upon imported fossil fuels. In the future, Singapore could procure large amounts of solar energy from nearby nations, including Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand and Australia. This solar energy could be transmitted to Singapore through undersea HVDC cables. Wind energy could also be imported from Vietnam.

How can solar energy be transmitted to Singapore?

This solar energy could be transmitted to Singapore through undersea HVDC cables. Wind energy could also be imported from Vietnam. Undersea HVDC cables are expensive and require complex negotiations with neighboring countries.

How is Singapore transforming the way it produces energy?

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.

Which sector is driving the growth of solar energy in Singapore?

According to EMA's Singapore Energy Statistics 2023 report, the private sector has been the driving force behind the growth in solar deployment, accounting for 63.5 per cent of the total installed capacity. Apart from solar energy, Singapore is working towards importing low-carbon electricity from the region.

Will Singapore achieve a new solar target by 2030?

Singapore is also working towards achieving a new solar target of at least 2GWP by 2030. Solar energy is one of EMA's "four switches" vital to decarbonising Singapore – the others being natural gas, regional power grids and low-carbon alternatives.
