Boundaries

● between Indian and Pacific Oceans

● No native resources Malaysia and Indonesia supplied all of

Singapore’s natural gas demand, via pipelines Imports & Exports

● 93.3% of imports

● no indigenous hydrocarbon reserves & must import all its crude oil and natural

gas.

● 3rd largest oil refining center & major energy trading hub Energy production

● no nuclear power plants

● 11 power stations (3 oil & 8

gas)

red=oil, yellow = gas Oceans

● ports, anchorage and shipping lanes, limit ocean energy technologies.

● narrow tidal range & calm seas limit opportunities for commercial tidal

power generation.

● Hydroelectric power cannot be harnessed, Singapore does not have a

river system with fast flowing water Future

● solar target 2 gigawatt-peak GWp by 2030

● Explore energy carriers ~ hydrogen

● Capture CO2 & convert into useful products

● 200MW of energy storage

Liquified natural gas (LNG)

● import natural gas from just about anywhere in the world.

● co2 emissions apox. 70% less

● Odorless,colorless, and non-toxic Interesting fact

● 2002 and 2010 singapore’s natural gas grew 42,000.

● improve the performance of solar systems and develop innovative ways of

integrating solar energy systems into our urban environment

● no nuclear power plants
