An Analysis of Singapore's Market-Based Tools for Energy
An Analysis of Singapore’s Market-Based Tools for Energy Policy Foreword Two years after the widely acclaimed Paris COP21 Climate agreement, the scope, modes and monitoring mechanisms of how to finance a low-carbon transition are still widely debated. As direct subsidisation of renewable energies has been more and more criticised due to distorting incentives and high fiscal burdens for the consumer, carbon taxation and market-oriented solutions like Emission Trade Systems (ETS) are now considered as the most effective instruments for the decarbonisation of energy systems. To contribute to the latter discussion, Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung has launched a new regional project on Energy Security and Climate Change in Asia-Pacific (RECAP). Based in Hong Kong since 2015, it aims at increasing the flow of ideas between Europe and Asia in the field of energy politics and climate change mitigation and adaptation. With now more than 35 countries, 15 states and provinces, and 7 cities having implemented ETS, this instrument has gained momentum in Asia – not least to China's proposed national ETS – and amply experiences around the world can already be found and discussed. Against this background, KAS RECAP commissioned two studies on essential aspects of Singapore's energy transformation, not least due to the fact that global cities like Singapore now play an ever-greater role in global climate change diplomacy. It is encouraging that Singapore has joined about 170 countries, including China, Japan and South Korea, in having ratified the Paris Agreement. The country has reaffirmed its commitment to address climate change and reduce emissions effectively.

Clean Energy Industry in Singapore
CLEAN ENERGY INDUSTRY IN SINGAPORE CLEAN ENERGY INDUSTRY IN SINGAPORE 1 CLEAN ENERGY INDUSTRY OVERVIEW The Cleantech Industry is a strategic economic growth area of Singapore. In 2007, SGD350 million was committed by the Singapore government to the clean energy industry for the purpose of advancing research & development, and for capability development. Singapore’s Cleantech industry can be broken into two key sub-sectors – Clean Energy and Water Technologies. It is estimated that the clean energy industry itself would contribute around SGD1.7 billion to Singapore ‘s GDP by 2015 and create 7,000 jobs in the various areas of solar power, fuel cells, wind power, energy efficiency and carbon services. (The all- encompassing cleantech industry is predicted to contribute SGD3.4 billion to Singapore’s GDP and generate 18,000 new jobs by 2015.) Singapore’s natural geography precludes it from adopting many natural alternative energy solutions: Tidal, wave and ocean thermal power are not feasible as most of the sea space is dedicated to the shipping, logistics and other port purposes. Hydroelectric power relies on the gravitational force of falling or flowing water, but Singapore lacks a major river system for that to be harnessed. Wind energy is also still a flimsy option for Singapore as the country’s average wind speeds are too weak to justify the economic use of large wind turbines; furthermore, Singapore does not have sufficient land for commercial wind turbines. Geothermal energy is geographically impossible, as it is typically limited to the tectonic plate boundaries. Given Singapore’s limitations, solar photovoltaic (PV) and biofuels have been determined to be the most viable options for renewable energy.

ROOFTOP SOLAR POWER PRODUCTION POTENTIAL OF EXISTING PUBLIC HOUSING BUILDINGS IN SINGAPORE Dissertation in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of BACHELOR OF SCIENCE WITH A MAJOR IN SUSTAINABLE ENERGY TRANSITION Uppsala University Department of Earth Sciences, Campus Gotland Liew Chiat Chee Jamie 2021.06.25 ROOFTOP SOLAR POWER PRODUCTION POTENTIAL OF EXISTING PUBLIC HOUSING BUILDINGS IN SINGAPORE Dissertation in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of BACHELOR OF SCIENCE WITH A MAJOR IN SUSTAINABLE ENERGY TRANSITION Uppsala University Department of Earth Sciences, Campus Gotland Approved by: Supervisor, Christian Lewander Examiner, Simon Davidsson Kurland 2021.06.25 iii ABSTRACT The importance of increasing renewable energy production to facilitate a sustainable energy transition has been well-discussed and reinforced worldwide. In land- and resource-scarce and tropical Singapore, solar has been deemed the most feasible renewable energy technology for the country moving forward. Previous studies have focused on assessing the feasibility of various solar technologies. This paper instead analyses the rooftop solar power production potential of existing high-rise residential buildings in Singapore, and thus contributes to reaching the national solar goal using geographic information system geospatial imagery. For this study, the chosen focus area is the south of Jurong East in Singapore. Results show that solar deployment on all available public high-rise residential building rooftop areas in the focus area will be able to generate a total potential solar peak power and annual solar energy output of 2-megawatt peak and 2.8-gigawatt hour per year respectively. This equates to meeting the energy demand of 679 public residential apartments in the focus area and meeting 0.18% of the national solar goal of reaching 1.5- gigawatt peak by 2025.

In the December 2015 conference, Singapore has made a commitment to reduce our Emissions Intensity by 36% from 2005 levels by 2030, and stabilise our greenhouse gas emissions with the aim of peaking around 2030. Given Singapore’s limited access to renewable energy, this pledge is an ambitious one. It will require the concerted effort by all stakeholders, including the government, businesses, households and individuals to achieve this target. The Singapore Certified Energy Manager (SCEM) programme is targeted at engineers and managers who manage manufacturing facilities and buildings and provide energy services or engineering consulting services.
