Delighted to launch Singapore’s first large-scale floating solar farm today. The size of 45 football fields, the Sembcorp Tengeh Floating Solar Farm is one of the largest in the world! This has been 10 years in the making, as we explored ways to harness the power of the sun for clean energy here.
The electricity generated from the Tengeh Reservoir facility will power our five local water treatment plants. This will make Singapore one of the few countries to have a fully green waterworks system, running completely on clean energy.
If you’re wondering how the farm affects the surrounding environment, studies have shown it has no significant impact on water quality nor wildlife. I was told a resident otter family has even set up its home there!
Congratulations to PUB and Sembcorp for the successful launch of this project. It is a significant step towards a greener and more sustainable future for Singapore.
