Electricity sales are expected to grow by more than 30 per cent over the next decade. Less than 1 minute per customer a year is the average interruption time, making Singapore’s electricity grid one of the most reliable in the world. by wong sher maine In hIs six years with singapore Power (sP), Mr Thiruchelvam Ranjan has held three job portfolios. he has also added a significant achievement to his resumé — he was part of a team that set up a substation — and is being groomed for leadership. The sP scholar and principal engineer says: “I underwent a rigorous graduate development programme during which I was posted to various departments. Besides giving me an understanding of many aspects of the organisation, these rotations also helped me to feel the pulse on the ground, understand the culture of the organisation, and build a strong social network.” The 32-year-old became interested in the power sector during his final year at the national University of singapore, where he earned a bachelor’s degree in engineering, specialising in electrical engineering. he says: “Power is an important and necessary part of everyone’s lives. singapore’s economy and all modern day activities are enabled by electricity, and our networks are amongst the most reliable worldwide.” his career choice was partly inspired by his engineer father. “My father made me realise the impact engineers make on people’s lives,” says Mr Ranjan. “Also, as a young child I would often see him take things apart and put them back together. In today’s world where it’s easier to replace than repair, he made me appreciate and take good care of what I had.” his mother also played a crucial role in shaping who he is today. “Mum was a teacher, and she taught me to question everything. This is something which I constantly apply when I was a student and now as an engineer.” Under sP’s graduate development programme, he has enjoyed a diverse range of jobs. he started off as a network management engineer helping to ensure that the network delivering power to customers is in tip-top condition. Then, in risk management, he learnt to effectively manage sP’s risk exposures. he is currently a project engineer within sP PowerGrid’s network development division where he works on developing singapore’s electricity network, installing and renewing network infrastructure to meet the increasing power demands and connecting new customers to the grid. One of his professional highlights was when he helped to set up the 66kV Rangoon substation, to meet growing demand and strengthen the power network in the central part of singapore including areas like Toa Payoh and Bishan. “We conduct voltage tests, equipment My colleagues comprise a mixture of industry veterans and young talents, but they all have one thing in common — a deep rooted sense of pride in what they do. They have inspired me to always give my best at work, because what I do impacts lives. — Mr Thiruchelvam Ranjan (right), principal engineer, Singapore Power functionality and safety checks before the substation goes live. Each successfully commissioned project adds to the reliability of singapore’s power network, and I am proud to have contributed to this effort.” he adds: “As an sP engineer, no two work days are identical. The challenges I have had to handle include managing network projects, addressing customers’ concerns and responding to power outages.” he was selected to attend the 2013 Young LEADERs! programme conducted by Business Leadership Centre of the Temasek Management services Group, where he honed his strategic thinking and business leadership skills. he is now in charge of organising sP Family Day 2014. he says: “This is a massive event with a lot of logistical and manpower planning involved. I look forward to the challenge of providing an enjoyable and memorable experience for 10,000 staff and their loved ones.” his experience and accomplishments at sP stand him in good stead for a Professional Engineer certification, which is the profession’s highest standard of competence. Mr Ranjan says: “The experience and knowledge that I have gained from working in sP will be instrumental towards achieving this goal.” he loves what he does because the outcome is tangible and necessary. “Every day, the work we do and projects we handle help to grow singapore’s network and connect customers to the grid, powering their activities at home, work and play. In many ways, PhoTo: Wee TY what we do at sP is an integral part of nation building and enhancing lives.” Mr Ranjan is in good company. “My colleagues comprise a mixture of industry veterans and young talents, but they all have one thing in common — a deep rooted sense of pride in what they do. They have inspired me to always give my best at work, because what I do impacts lives.” Diverse career track Singapore Power’s Graduate Development Programme is a talent development scheme where staff benefits from job rotations to better understand the organisation at a macro and micro level. They also benefit from leadership development programmes, and are given opportunities to maximise their potential via stretch assignments.

Mereka bersama anak mereka (dari kiri); Muhammad Adam Qayyum, Muhammad Aqil Qayyis, Muhammad Afan Qayyid, dan Maya Amara Qayyisha, semasa acara Hari Kanak-Kanak di The Lighthouse pada 4 Oktober. – Foto BH oleh IZWANDI AZMAN ▶ IZWANDI AZMAN izwandi@sph.com.sg Setiap malam, Encik Muhammad Hafiz Sapeh tidur di ruang tamu, sementara isterinya, Cik Nur Adilah Zuraime, bersama empat anak kecil mereka yang berusia antara satu setengah bulan dengan tujuh tahun, berkongsi katilratuatau‘QueenSizeBed’dibilik tidur. Ini memandangkan ruang yang sempitdiflatsewaduabilikdiPunggol itu tidak mengizinkan seisi keluarga tidur bersama. Namun, keadaan itu bakal berubah tidak lama lagi apabila mereka dijangka menerima sebuah katil dua tingkat daripada badan amal Suncare SG, yang ditubuhkan pada November 2022, bagi menyokong kesejahteraan kanak-kanak dan belia. Bagi Encik Hafiz, 37 tahun, seorang juruteknik kawalan serangga, dan Cik Adilah, 24 tahun, seorang suri rumah, sebuah katil dua tingkat membawa makna besar kepada kehidupan keluarganya yang sudah menetap di flat itu sejak 2022. “Saya gembira sebab nanti boleh tidur sebilik dengan anak-anak. Walaupun ada yang tidur di atas, sekurangkurangnya kami semua berdekatan. “Saya harap ia boleh buat kami sekeluarga meluangkan masa bersama atau‘bonding’ demi lebih eratkan ikatan keluarga,” ujar Encik Hafiz. Bantuan itu adalah sebahagian hasil sumbangan Dana Kindness Inspires Dreams (Kids) Suncare SG, yang bakal menyokong keluarga menerusi penambahbaikan rumah, bantuan pemakanan, serta sokongan pendidikan dan pekerjaan. Dana itu menerima sumbangan sebanyak $1 juta daripada pengendali grid,SP Group,pada 4 Oktober di The Lighthouse, sebuah ruang belia di Punggol kendalian Suncare SG, semasa satu acara meraikan Hari Kanak- Kanak. Acara itu dirasmikan dua Anggota Parlimen GRC Punggol, iaitu Timbalan Perdana Menteri merangkap Menteri Perdagangan dan Perusahaan, Encik Gan Kim Yong; serta Menteri Negara Kanan (Pembangunan Negara merangkap Pengangkutan), Cik Sun Xueling. Sumbangan SP Group akan disalurkan selama tiga tahun dan bakal membantu kira-kira 200 keluarga di bawah Dana Kids, termasuk Encik Hafiz sekeluarga. Selain katil dua tingkat, pasangan itu bakal menerima sokongan lain daripada Dana Kids pada minggu depan, seperti susu tepung dan lampin bayi, barang keperluan sekolah, kipas dan penyaman udara untuk membantu meredakan ekzema anak bongsu mereka. Antara sokongan bermanfaat yang diraih daripada pelbagai program bantuan Suncare SG ini, jelas Encik Hafiz, ialah perubahan pada anak sulungnya, Muhammad Adam Qayyum, yang kini lebih yakin dan berupaya bertutur dengan lancar. Sebahagian besar kemajuan itu ialah hasil bimbingan program You Shine dan You Power anjuran Suncare SG, yang disertai Adam sejak berusia empat tahun. “Sejak kecil lagi,Adam tidak boleh menyusun ayat dengan tepat. Saya dan isteri sukar memahami percakapannya. Tetapi dia kini lebih yakin dan mampu bercakap dengan fasih. Sekarang dia boleh ceritakan apa berlaku di sekolah. Dia lebih berani,” tambah Encik Hafiz. Program You Shine, yang dijalankan selepas waktu sekolah, menggalakkan pembelajaran secara sendiri serta kerjasama bersama rakan sebaya menerusi permainan, seni, sukan dan program celik bahasa di samping Sains, Teknologi, Kejuruteraan dan Matematik (Stem). Sementara itu, Program You Power menghubungkan kanak-kanak dengan mentor terlatih untuk pembangunan akademik dan peribadi. Anggota Lembaga Suncare SG,Encik David Ong, berkata: “Kebanyakan peserta program daripada keluarga muda dan rentan yang tinggal di flat sewa. The Lighthouse memberi mereka ruang selamat dan program Suncare SG membantu mereka dari segi emosi dan keyakinan.” Ketua Pegawai Eksekutif Kumpulan SP Group, Encik Stanley Huang, berkata: “Daripada memenuhi keperluan harian, mewujudkan kediaman sihat,hinggalahpendidikandanpekerjaan, sokongan menyeluruh penting demi membina masa depan lebih baik.” Average-Electricity-Consumption--kWh--Jul-23-to-Jun-24.xlsxhttps://www.spgroup.com.sg/dam/spgroup/docs/our-services/utilities/tariff-information/Average-Electricity-Consumption--kWh--Jul-23-to-Jun-24.xlsx Consumption_Elect Average consumption of Electricity (kWh) Premises Types Aug-23 Sep-23 Oct-23 Nov-23 Dec-23 Jan-24 Feb-24 Mar-24 Apr-24 May-24 Jun-24 Jul-24 HDB 1-Room 145 143 146 144 135 126 126 132 150 152 149 140 HDB 2-Room 190 189 190 188 176 164 167 173 199 199 195 183 HDB 3-Room 272 269 274 269 247 236 241 250 292 285 277 264 HDB 4-Room 371 367 374 370 342 321 330 342 398 396 383 360 HDB 5-Room 434 427 437 436 401 367 381 399 463 466 448 416 HDB Executive 536 528 541 530 478 456 474 489 575 568 544 515 Apartment 514 515 537 541 483 430 435 486 578 573 543 500 Terrace 866 859 890 881 804 740 794 821 957 900 872 838 Semi-Detached 1,134 1,150 1,187 1,174 1,065 1,019 1,038 1,109 1,254 1,224 1,170 1,128 Bungalow 2,219 2,298 2,308 2,358 2,075 2,106 1,951 2,146 2,432 2,360 2,266 2,220 Note: The figures exclude electricity consumption for PAYU customers and customers who are not purchasing electricity at the regulated tariff.

Walaupun kerap berasa letih disebabkan kesukaran bernafas, pegawai teknikal kanan bersama Singapore Power itu tidak pernah menjadikan masalah kesihatan sebagai alasan baginya mengambil sikap sambil lewa di tempat kerja. Pernah sekali Encik Johari membatalkan sesi rawatan dialisis bagi menjawab panggilan kecemasan tentang kebocoran gas yang berlaku selepas waktu kerja. “Saya tunda sesi rawatan dialisis itu kepada keesokan hari. Ia dibolehkan kerana NKF (Yayasan Buah Pinggang Kebangsaan) faham bahawa kami, pesakit yang bekerja, kadangkala mempunyai tugas yang tidak dapat dielakkan,” kata Encik Johari, 54 tahun. Begitulah antara cara bapa empat anak itu menunjukkan betapa beliau menghargai sokongan yang diberi majikannya meskipun tahu beliau mengalami masalah ginjal. Teknisyen tidak ambil sikap sambil lewa meski kerap letih TERUS TABAH: Encik Johari Marzuki telah menghidap penyakit ginjal sejak 23 tahun lalu, namun terus bersikap positif dan memberi yang terbaik di tempat kerja. Encik Johari berkata fikirannya berkecamuk apabila disahkan menghidap penyakit ginjal pada 1990 kerana takut dibuang kerja dan tidak mampu membiayai kos rawatan. Mujur Lembaga Perbekalan Awam (PUB), majikannya pada waktu itu sebelum Singapore Power ditubuhkan, mengekalkan Encik Johari sebagai pekerja. Malah, Encik Johari diberi peluang sama seperti pekerja lain untuk mendaki tangga kerjaya. “Selepas didiagnosis menghidap masalah ginjal, saya beritahu diri saya bahawa saya perlu bekerja dua kali lebih keras berbanding teknisyen lain,” kata Encik Johari. Tidak sekadar itu, Singapore Power turut membantu membiaya perbelanjaan perubatan Encik Johari dan memberinya masa kerja fleksibel agar beliau dapat meluangkan masa menjalani rawatan dialisis. Namun, Encik Johari berkata beliau tidak mahu mengganggu operasi di tempat kerjanya lalu memilih menjalani rawatan dialisis selepas waktu kerja dari 6 petang hingga 10 malam. Beliau juga jarang sekali mengambil cuti sakit sehingga beberapa kali diberi anugerah kerana tidak menggunakan cuti sakit sepanjang tahun. Encik Johari berharap lebih banyak syarikat akan memberi peluang kepada pesakit ginjal membuktikan kebolehan mereka, namun menekankan bahawa pesakit sendiri harus menunjukkan bahawa mereka boleh melakukan tugas dengan sempurna. “Pesakit ginjal harus buktikan kepada majikan bahawa mereka boleh melakukan tanggungjawab mereka dengan baik atau lebih daripada orang sihat,” kata Encik Johari.

SP’s technical officer Eric Lee shares how he and his team from Asset Sensing & Analytics have advanced from manual inspections to digital diagnostics. Previously, Eric trekked through substations, inspecting panels one by one and recording data by hand – a time-consuming and physically demanding process.

Media Release SP Group Partners Airbus Asia Training Centre to Provide Sustainable Thermal Comfort with Smart Cooling Solution SINGAPORE, 13 JANUARY 2025 — SP Group (SP) will deploy its GET (Green Energy Tech) Control building intelligence system at Airbus Asia Training Centre (AATC) to improve occupant thermal comfort and enable energy savings. Under the five-year partnership, GET Control, powered by building intelligence solutions provider 75F, will provide dynamic airflow balancing that optimises air-conditioning and energy efficiency. The micro-climate control solution uses artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things (IOT) to ensure spaces are cooled more evenly by dynamically controlling airflow based on real-time temperature changes in weather and occupancy. In Singapore, air-conditioning typically contributes to about half of a building's total energy usage. When fully installed in 2025, GET Control aims to improve on AATC's existing air-conditioning system, which supplies a constant airflow to all locations, causing overcooling and higher energy use. GET Control will reduce energy consumption to lower costs and enhance efficiency by using the least amount of energy to deliver optimal cooling and occupant thermal comfort. This will be facilitated by retrofitting wireless sensors and smart dampers that eliminate the need for disruptive and expensive duct alteration works, saving up to 25 per cent on man-hours for installation. On a larger scale, GET Control will enable Airbus's largest flight crew training facility in the world to eventually become a green building, in line with the Super Low Energy Technology Roadmap published by Singapore's Building and Construction Authority. "SP is pleased to support AATC's efforts in providing a conducive environment for its trainees and employees to learn and work. GET Control will ensure an optimal occupant experience within the building while lowering AATC's carbon footprint. As Singapore accelerates in its decarbonisation journey, deploying innovative next-generation technologies will be key to a net-zero future," said Mr S Harsha, Managing Director of Sustainable Energy Solutions (Singapore), SP Group. AATC's General Manager, Silvia Meloni, said that this collaboration with SP reflected Airbus's commitment to reduce the environmental impact at its sites around the world. In the original design of AATC, thermal comfort was designed to be zonal, with spaces cooled uniformly throughout the facility regardless of room occupancy and usage. With the implementation of GET Control, AATC will be able to ensure conducive working and learning conditions for all without wasting energy by cooling spaces only when and where needed. “In a pilot project completed earlier in 2024, a single zone was fitted with GET Control. Electrical energy consumption was reduced by 48.8 per cent, cooling energy consumption was reduced by 18.5 per cent. With the full deployment of GET Control, the improved air-side cooling system is expected to reduce annual Scope 2 CO2 emissions by approximately 70 tonnes,” said Ms Meloni. In addition to AATC, GET Control has also been deployed at several commercial developments and educational institutions, including Republic Plaza, Singapore Institute of Technology (Punggol Campus), Singapore Land Tower, United Square, and the upcoming Labrador Tower. AATC and SP are also exploring the adoption of additional sustainable energy solutions such as electric vehicle charging and additional cooling optimisations to further reduce carbon emissions.

Schneider Electric Partners SP to Fully Electrify Service Vehicleshttps://www.spgroup.com.sg/about-us/media-resources/news-and-media-releases/Schneider-Electric-Partners-SP-To-Fully-Electrify-Service-Vehicles Media Release Schneider Electric Partners SP to Fully Electrify Service Vehicles Schneider Electric is the first corporate partner outside of the public transport sector to use SP Group’s nationwide EV charging network Singapore, 2 January 2020 – Schneider Electric (SE) and SP Group (SP) today announced a partnership to fully electrify SE’s service fleet in Singapore. The agreement enables SE’s service vehicles to access SP’s nationwide network of electric vehicle (EV) charging points. SP will fully support SE’s charging needs for at least the next two years. SE has a total service fleet size of 25. Its intent is to convert 10 of its vehicles into EVs by June 2020 and fully electrify its fleet by 2021. This decision was made possible with the partnership with SP. Damien Dhellemmes, Country President of Schneider Electric Singapore elaborates: “Going green is a deliberate decision. After greening our regional headquarters in Singapore, our next step is to electrify our fleet. This is only possible if we have an accessible and wide enough charging network so that our service vehicles can be green and still serve our customers efficiently. SP’s nationwide network gives us the impetus to make this decision.” SP had earlier signed partnerships with Grab and HDT Singapore Taxi (HDT) to support the charging needs of their EV fleets. SE is the first corporate partner outside of the public transport sector to be using SP’s nationwide EV charging network. This represents a growing trend of companies in Singapore electrifying their internal fleets to achieve environmental sustainability and cost savings. SP currently operates Singapore’s largest and fastest public EV charging network with more than 200 charging points across the island. It is targeting 1,000 EV charging points by end of 2020, of which 250 will be high-speed DC (direct current) chargers that can deliver a full charge in 30 minutes. Goh Chee Kiong, Head of Strategic Development, SP Group, said: “SP has built up deep capabilities in electric vehicle charging and usage over the years which we have harnessed for our nationwide public EV charging network. We are pleased to have Schneider Electric as our first corporate partner outside of the public transport sector and are confident this will provide a model for many other corporates to electrify their own fleet vehicles. SP’s pervasive EV charging network across Singapore will fully support their charging needs, providing drivers convenience and peace of mind.” About Schneider Electric At Schneider, we believe access to energy and digital is a basic human right.

Langkah itu bertepatan dengan langkah syarikat pengangkutan sewa swasta, Grab, memanfaatkan kemudahan tersebut untuk mengecas kereta-kereta elektriknya. Kesemua 38 tempat pengecasan – 19 alat pengecas yang mempunyai arus berubah arah (AC) sebanyak 43 kilowatt dan 19 alat pengecas 50 kilowatt langsung (DC) – merupakan pengecas berkelajuan tinggi yang mampu menambah kuasa pada kereta elektrik bersaiz sederhana dalam masa sejam, berbanding enam hingga lapan jam menggunakan pengecas dalam rumah. Dalam kenyataannya, SP berkata tempat pengecasan itu terletak di lapan lokasi serata Singapura, berhampiran dengan pusat makanan, agar pemandu boleh berehat ketika kereta mereka sedang dicas. Tempat pengecasan tersebut adalah yang pertama daripada 1,000 tempat pengecasan yang SP ingin lancarkan menjelang 2020. Pengguna boleh mencari dan mengakses tempat mengecas yang disediakan melalui aplikasi SP. Ia boleh dimuat turun di iTunes App Store dan Google Play. Aplikasi tersebut turut mempunyai fungsi yang memaklumkan pengguna apabila pengecasan selesai. Ia juga membolehkan pengguna membuat pembayaran menerusi kad DBS dan POSB. Kad dari semua bank utama akan disertakan tidak lama lagi, kata SP. Sistem AC dapat mengecas kereta bersaiz sederhana dalam masa 45 hingga 60 minit, manakala pengecas DC dapat melakukannya dalam masa sekitar setengah jam. SP berkata ia merancang mahu memperkenalkan pengecas berkuasa 350 kilowatt “dalam beberapa tahun mendatang”. Pengecas tersebut dapat mengecas kereta berprestasi tinggi dalam kira-kira 15 minit. Ketika ini, pengguna perlu membayar 41.4 sen bagi setiap kilowatt jika mereka menggunakan pengecas AC dan 47.3 sen setiap kilowatt bagi pengecas DC. Mengikut kadar ini, SP berkata pemandu kereta elektrik boleh menjimat sekurang-kurangnya 50 peratus berbanding mereka yang memandu model setanding yang menggunakan petrol. Namun, akhbar The Straits Times difahamkan bahawa Grab akan memberi diskaun kepada para pemandu elektriknya. Syarikat tersebut dijangka menerima 20 kereta Hyundai Kona Electric bulan ini. Kereta ini – yang boleh memandu sejauh 400 kilometer jika dicas sehingga penuh – adalah sebahagian daripada 200 kereta yang telah dipesan Grab. Ogos lalu, syarikat pengangkutan itu telah membuat pengumuman bahawa ia bakal memperkenalkan kereta tersebut sebagai sebahagian daripada perkongsian dengan SP Group. Ketua Pegawai Eksekutif (CEO) Kumpulan SP, Encik Wong Kim Yin, berkata rangkaian pengecasan SP akan “menggalak penggunaan mobiliti hijau yang lebih meluas di Singapura, dan membolehkan pemandu untuk berjimat”.

SP Group Partners Hyundai Motor Group to Accelerate Adoption of Electric Vehicles in Singaporehttps://www.spgroup.com.sg/about-us/media-resources/news-and-media-releases/SP-Group-Partners-Hyundai-Motor-Group-to-Accelerate-Adoption-of-Electric-Vehicles-in-Singapore News Release SP Group Partners Hyundai Motor Group to Accelerate Adoption of Electric Vehicles in Singapore First Battery-as-a-Service concept in Southeast Asia Singapore & Seoul, 12 November 2020 – SP Group (SP) and Hyundai Motor Group (Hyundai) today announced that they have signed a Business Cooperation Agreement (BCA) to accelerate the adoption of electric vehicles (EV) in Singapore. SP, which operates Singapore’s largest high-speed charging network, will partner with Hyundai to jointly develop a new business model for battery leasing, or Battery-as-a-Service (BaaS) – a first in Southeast Asia – where EV users lease the car battery instead of owning it. Stanley Huang, Group Chief Executive Officer, SP Group, said: “SP has the largest fast EV charging network in Singapore and we are progressively expanding it to establish a highly pervasive and reliable network in order to encourage EV adoption. Through this partnership with Hyundai, we are making low-carbon mobility solutions more accessible to vehicle owners. EVs are a key pillar in SP’s strategy to introduce more low-carbon, smart energy solutions to help achieve Singapore’s sustainability goals.” “For the success of innovation activities through the Hyundai Motor Group's Singapore Global Innovation Center (HMGICS), cooperation with competent local partners like SP Group is important,” said Hongbum Jung, Senior Vice President of Hyundai Motor Group. “We will strengthen cooperation with various local partners starting with this cooperation.” In October 2020, Hyundai announced the establishment of an open innovation base through a groundbreaking ceremony for the HMGICS. Hyundai will step up efforts to expand the supply of electric vehicles in Singapore in cooperation with SP, which is expanding its network of charging infrastructure. Meanwhile, Hyundai is working closely with local universities, startups, and research institutes to build an innovative ecosystem in Singapore, including Nanyang Technological University for industry-academic cooperation in smart city and future new business areas, and PSA Cargo Solutions for the establishment of automatic logistics services. -Ends- About SP Group SP Group is a leading utilities group in the Asia Pacific, enabling a low-carbon, smart energy future for its customers.

Schneider Electric Partners SP to Fully Electrify Service Vehicleshttps://www.spgroup.com.sg/about-us/media-resources/news-and-media-releases/Schneider-Electric-Partners-SP-To-Fully-Electrify-Service-Vehicles Media Release Schneider Electric Partners SP to Fully Electrify Service Vehicles Schneider Electric is the first corporate partner outside of the public transport sector to use SP Group’s nationwide EV charging network Singapore, 2 January 2020 – Schneider Electric (SE) and SP Group (SP) today announced a partnership to fully electrify SE’s service fleet in Singapore. The agreement enables SE’s service vehicles to access SP’s nationwide network of electric vehicle (EV) charging points. SP will fully support SE’s charging needs for at least the next two years. SE has a total service fleet size of 25. Its intent is to convert 10 of its vehicles into EVs by June 2020 and fully electrify its fleet by 2021. This decision was made possible with the partnership with SP. Damien Dhellemmes, Country President of Schneider Electric Singapore elaborates: “Going green is a deliberate decision. After greening our regional headquarters in Singapore, our next step is to electrify our fleet. This is only possible if we have an accessible and wide enough charging network so that our service vehicles can be green and still serve our customers efficiently. SP’s nationwide network gives us the impetus to make this decision.” SP had earlier signed partnerships with Grab and HDT Singapore Taxi (HDT) to support the charging needs of their EV fleets. SE is the first corporate partner outside of the public transport sector to be using SP’s nationwide EV charging network. This represents a growing trend of companies in Singapore electrifying their internal fleets to achieve environmental sustainability and cost savings. SP currently operates Singapore’s largest and fastest public EV charging network with more than 200 charging points across the island. It is targeting 1,000 EV charging points by end of 2020, of which 250 will be high-speed DC (direct current) chargers that can deliver a full charge in 30 minutes. Goh Chee Kiong, Head of Strategic Development, SP Group, said: “SP has built up deep capabilities in electric vehicle charging and usage over the years which we have harnessed for our nationwide public EV charging network. We are pleased to have Schneider Electric as our first corporate partner outside of the public transport sector and are confident this will provide a model for many other corporates to electrify their own fleet vehicles. SP’s pervasive EV charging network across Singapore will fully support their charging needs, providing drivers convenience and peace of mind.” About Schneider Electric At Schneider, we believe access to energy and digital is a basic human right.

[20201113] Straits Times - Higher rebates, surcharges to cut vehicle emissions from next yearhttps://www.spgroup.com.sg/dam/jcr:cdb796c3-b029-4dbe-a0c0-8a023522f3c5 Higher rebates, surcharges to cut vehicle emissions from next year Clement Yong Rebates on the purchase of cleaner cars will be increased by $5,000 from Jan 1 next year to Dec 31, 2022, under the Vehicular Emissions Scheme (VES). Cleaner taxis will have their rebates increased by $7,500 in the same time period, under the programme aimed at nudging motorists towards more environmentally friendly models of private transport. In the carrot-and-stick model, surcharges for more pollutive vehicles will also be increased – by $5,000 for cars and $7,500 for taxis. This will kick in on July 1 next year instead of at the start of the year to allow time for the market to adjust, and will be in effect until Dec 31, 2022, the National Environment Agency (NEA) and Land Transport Authority (LTA) said in a joint statement yesterday. The increased rebates and surcharges mean buyers of cleaner cars will be awarded with rebates of up to $25,000, up from the previous $20,000, while buyers of the most pollutive cars will be penalised by $25,000, also up from $20,000. The VES was introduced in 2018 to reduce carbon emissions on Singapore’s roads. It categorises vehicles based on emissions across five pollutants, with each category’s rebate or surcharge calibrated accordingly. NEA and LTA said the scheme has been effective in encouraging the purchase of cleaner car models, with the number of new cars that qualify for the cleanest two bands increasing by 60 per cent between the third quarter of 2018 and the first quarter of this year. The number of those in the most pollutive two bands has fallen by around 20 per cent in the same time period. Singapore University of Social Sciences associate professor of economics Walter Theseira said the VES rebates and surcharges could push motorists towards the adoption of cleaner cars in two ways. As motor car dealers usually quote a price inclusive of all taxes and certificate of entitlement bidding, a portion of the discounts usually goes to car buyers, while another could go to the dealers. This means that in addition to consumers getting a discount, the VES changes could also encourage car dealers to import cleaner models. Cleaner cars include the Hyundai Kona Electric, Renault Zoe and Toyota Prius Plus, while more pollutive cars are those like the Mitsubishi Outlander 2.0 CVT, Mazda CX-5 2.5 AT and Porsche Cayenne E3. The enhanced VES is also a boon for aspiring electric car buyers, whose car models often fall under the cleanest bands. Together with the early adoption incentive scheme for electric vehicle buyers announced by LTA in February – which offers rebates capped at $20,000 per vehicle – the increased rebates under the VES will allow for savings of up to $45,000 for each new fully electric car. However, Associate Professor Transport Minister Ong Ye Kung beside a BlueSG electric vehicle (EV). He said the authorities are reviewing the plan to increase the number of EV-charging points to see if commercial parties could be roped in. PHOTO: ONG YE KUNG/FACEBOOK Theseira noted that there are additional factors to consider with regard to electric vehicles. “The number of electric vehicle models is still very limited compared with that of internal combustion engines. Electric vehicles also require the owner to have available charging. I think until these two are solved, the VES change will have minimal effect,” he said. Transport Minister Ong Ye Kung said yesterday that industry watchers believe that costs for motorists choosing between electric vehicles and internal combustion engine vehicles will equalise by around 2025, or earlier. Electric models are now still generally more expensive, and there were only 1,125 electric cars on the road as at January. SP, Hyundai to boost usage of electric vehicles SP Group and Hyundai Motor Group signed an agreement yesterday to accelerate the adoption of electric vehicles in Singapore. The Temasek investment fund-owned group and the South Korean automotive manufacturer will work together on various initiatives, including the expansion of Singapore’s electric vehicle-charging infrastructure to make owning an electric car more convenient for motorists. They will also jointly develop a new business model for battery leasing, which will allow electric vehicle users to lease the car battery instead of owning it. It will be the first such exploration in South-east Asia. “SP and Hyundai aim to lower the initial cost of purchasing electric vehicles, enhance the accessibility of charging points and build an ecosystem of innovative solutions that can encourage the adoption of electric vehicles in Singapore,” the two groups said in a press statement. Mr Ong referred to Singapore’s electric vehicle-charging infrastructure, which has been cited as a potential bottleneck by industry watchers who believe the lack of chargers could stop Singapore’s electric dreams in its tracks. Singapore currently has 1,800 charging points and is planning to increase this to 28,000 by 2030. Mr Ong repeated what he said in SP’s group chief executive officer Stanley Huang said electric vehicles constitute a key pillar in SP’s strategy to help Singapore achieve its sustainability goals. Singapore aims for the last internal combustion engine car to be sold in 2030 and wants to phase out internal combustion engine vehicles by 2040. Hyundai Motor Group’s senior vice-president Jung Hong-bum said the group will continue to strengthen its cooperation with various local partners, beginning with this partnership with SP group. It is currently working closely with local universities such as Nanyang Technological University, start-ups and research institutes to create smart city solutions and brainstorm new future business areas. There are currently about 1,800 charging points in Singapore. The aim is to have more than 28,000 by 2030. Clement Yong Parliament last month – that the authorities are reviewing this plan to see if it could be made more ambitious by roping in commercial parties. “What is clear is that EVs (electric vehicles) will become a reality, but we need to embrace and promote it,” he said. clementy@sph.com.sg Searchhttps://www.spgroup.com.sg/search?tag=electric-vehicles Search [20190110] Tamil Murasu - Charging Points for Electric Vehicleshttps://www.spgroup.com.sg/dam/jcr:13083dd3-5d8f-4798-b008-aff32ef063a1 ������� ���� ����� ������ �������� ���� ��� ��� �� ����� ���� ���� ������� ������, ���� ��� ���� ����� ���� �� (���) ��� ���� ���� ����. �� ������ ��� ��� ������ ���� 38 ����� ������ �� ������������. �����, 43 ���� ����� �� ����� ������ 19. ���� 50 ���� ��� �� �� ����� ������. ��� ����� ������ ��������� ���� ������������ ����� �� ������� ���� ������ ����� ����. ���� ������ ��� ����� ���������� 1,000 ����� ������� ���� ���������� 38 ������ �������� �������� ������. ��� ������ ���� ����� ��� ����. ���� ����� ���� ���� �� �� ������� ������ ��� ����. ���� ����� ����� ��������� ���� �� ��� ��� �� ��� ������. ��� ����� ������ ����� ����� ����� �� ����� ��������� ��� ������� ����� ������� ����. ���� ����������� ���� ��� ����� ������ ���. ������ ���� ���� ����� ������ ��� ���� ����� ��� ��� ���� ����. ��� ���� ������ ������� �������� ��� ���� ����� �������� ���� ���. �� ����� ���� �� ����� 45 ��� 60 ������ ����� ����, �� ����� ������ ���� ��� 30 ������ ����� ���� �� ���� ��. ���� �� ������ 350 ���� ����� �� Source: Tamil Murasu © Singapore Press Holdings Limited.

Schneider Electric Partners SP to Fully Electrify Service Vehicleshttps://www.spgroup.com.sg/about-us/media-resources/news-and-media-releases/Schneider-Electric-Partners-SP-To-Fully-Electrify-Service-Vehicles Media Release Schneider Electric Partners SP to Fully Electrify Service Vehicles Schneider Electric is the first corporate partner outside of the public transport sector to use SP Group’s nationwide EV charging network Singapore, 2 January 2020 – Schneider Electric (SE) and SP Group (SP) today announced a partnership to fully electrify SE’s service fleet in Singapore. The agreement enables SE’s service vehicles to access SP’s nationwide network of electric vehicle (EV) charging points. SP will fully support SE’s charging needs for at least the next two years. SE has a total service fleet size of 25. Its intent is to convert 10 of its vehicles into EVs by June 2020 and fully electrify its fleet by 2021. This decision was made possible with the partnership with SP. Damien Dhellemmes, Country President of Schneider Electric Singapore elaborates: “Going green is a deliberate decision. After greening our regional headquarters in Singapore, our next step is to electrify our fleet. This is only possible if we have an accessible and wide enough charging network so that our service vehicles can be green and still serve our customers efficiently. SP’s nationwide network gives us the impetus to make this decision.” SP had earlier signed partnerships with Grab and HDT Singapore Taxi (HDT) to support the charging needs of their EV fleets. SE is the first corporate partner outside of the public transport sector to be using SP’s nationwide EV charging network. This represents a growing trend of companies in Singapore electrifying their internal fleets to achieve environmental sustainability and cost savings. SP currently operates Singapore’s largest and fastest public EV charging network with more than 200 charging points across the island. It is targeting 1,000 EV charging points by end of 2020, of which 250 will be high-speed DC (direct current) chargers that can deliver a full charge in 30 minutes. Goh Chee Kiong, Head of Strategic Development, SP Group, said: “SP has built up deep capabilities in electric vehicle charging and usage over the years which we have harnessed for our nationwide public EV charging network. We are pleased to have Schneider Electric as our first corporate partner outside of the public transport sector and are confident this will provide a model for many other corporates to electrify their own fleet vehicles. SP’s pervasive EV charging network across Singapore will fully support their charging needs, providing drivers convenience and peace of mind.” About Schneider Electric At Schneider, we believe access to energy and digital is a basic human right.

[20190110] Berita Harian - SP Group Launches 38 Charging Points for Electric Vehicleshttps://www.spgroup.com.sg/dam/jcr:f278505f-b7f6-4258-8ebc-776e2a445a3c Berita Harian | Khamis, 10 Januari 2019 Berita SP Group lancar 38 tempat pengecas kenderaan elektrik MENGECAS KENDERAAN ELEKTRIK: Syarikat pembekal tenaga SP Group telah melancarkan kumpulan pertama tempat mengecas kenderaan elektrik. – Foto SPH SYARIKAT pembekal tenaga SP Group telah melancarkan kumpulan pertama tempat mengecas kenderaan elektrik. Langkah itu bertepatan dengan langkah syarikat pengangkutan sewa swasta, Grab, memanfaatkan kemudahan tersebut untuk mengecas kereta-kereta elektriknya. Kesemua 38 tempat pengecasan – 19 alat pengecas yang mempunyai arus berubah arah (AC) sebanyak 43 kilowatt dan 19 alat pengecas 50 kilowatt langsung (DC) – merupakan pengecas berkelajuan tinggi yang mampu menambah kuasa pada kereta elektrik bersaiz sederhana dalam masa sejam, berbanding enam hingga lapan jam menggunakan pengecas dalam rumah. Dalam kenyataannya, SP berkata tempat pengecasan itu terletak di lapan lokasi serata Singapura, berhampiran dengan pusat makanan, agar pemandu boleh berehat ketika kereta mereka sedang dicas. Tempat pengecasan tersebut adalah yang pertama daripada 1,000 tempat pengecasan yang SP ingin lancarkan menjelang 2020. Pengguna boleh mencari dan mengakses tempat mengecas yang disediakan melalui aplikasi SP. Ia boleh dimuat turun di iTunes App Store dan Google Play. Aplikasi tersebut turut mempunyai fungsi yang memaklumkan pengguna apabila pengecasan selesai. Ia juga membolehkan pengguna membuat pembayaran menerusi kad DBS dan POSB. Kad dari semua bank utama akan disertakan tidak lama lagi, kata SP. Sistem AC dapat mengecas kereta bersaiz sederhana dalam masa 45 hingga 60 minit, manakala pengecas DC dapat melakukannya dalam masa sekitar setengah jam. SP berkata ia merancang mahu memperkenalkan pengecas berkuasa 350 kilowatt “dalam beberapa tahun mendatang”. Pengecas tersebut dapat mengecas kereta berprestasi tinggi dalam kira-kira 15 minit. Ketika ini, pengguna perlu membayar 41.4 sen bagi setiap kilowatt jika mereka menggunakan pengecas AC dan 47.3 sen setiap kilowatt bagi pengecas DC. Mengikut kadar ini, SP berkata pemandu kereta elektrik boleh menjimat sekurang-kurangnya 50 peratus berbanding mereka yang memandu model setanding yang menggunakan petrol. Namun, akhbar The Straits Times difahamkan bahawa Grab akan memberi diskaun kepada para pemandu elektriknya. Syarikat tersebut dijangka menerima 20 kereta Hyundai Kona Electric bulan ini. Kereta ini – yang boleh memandu sejauh 400 kilometer jika dicas sehingga penuh – adalah sebahagian daripada 200 kereta yang telah dipesan Grab. Ogos lalu, syarikat pengangkutan itu telah membuat pengumuman bahawa ia bakal memperkenalkan kereta tersebut sebagai sebahagian daripada perkongsian dengan SP Group. Ketua Pegawai Eksekutif (CEO) Kumpulan SP, Encik Wong Kim Yin, berkata rangkaian pengecasan SP akan “menggalak penggunaan mobiliti hijau yang lebih meluas di Singapura, dan membolehkan pemandu untuk berjimat”.

[20201113] Straits Times - Higher rebates, surcharges to cut vehicle emissions from next yearhttps://www.spgroup.com.sg/dam/jcr:cdb796c3-b029-4dbe-a0c0-8a023522f3c5 Higher rebates, surcharges to cut vehicle emissions from next year Clement Yong Rebates on the purchase of cleaner cars will be increased by $5,000 from Jan 1 next year to Dec 31, 2022, under the Vehicular Emissions Scheme (VES). Cleaner taxis will have their rebates increased by $7,500 in the same time period, under the programme aimed at nudging motorists towards more environmentally friendly models of private transport. In the carrot-and-stick model, surcharges for more pollutive vehicles will also be increased – by $5,000 for cars and $7,500 for taxis. This will kick in on July 1 next year instead of at the start of the year to allow time for the market to adjust, and will be in effect until Dec 31, 2022, the National Environment Agency (NEA) and Land Transport Authority (LTA) said in a joint statement yesterday. The increased rebates and surcharges mean buyers of cleaner cars will be awarded with rebates of up to $25,000, up from the previous $20,000, while buyers of the most pollutive cars will be penalised by $25,000, also up from $20,000. The VES was introduced in 2018 to reduce carbon emissions on Singapore’s roads. It categorises vehicles based on emissions across five pollutants, with each category’s rebate or surcharge calibrated accordingly. NEA and LTA said the scheme has been effective in encouraging the purchase of cleaner car models, with the number of new cars that qualify for the cleanest two bands increasing by 60 per cent between the third quarter of 2018 and the first quarter of this year. The number of those in the most pollutive two bands has fallen by around 20 per cent in the same time period. Singapore University of Social Sciences associate professor of economics Walter Theseira said the VES rebates and surcharges could push motorists towards the adoption of cleaner cars in two ways. As motor car dealers usually quote a price inclusive of all taxes and certificate of entitlement bidding, a portion of the discounts usually goes to car buyers, while another could go to the dealers. This means that in addition to consumers getting a discount, the VES changes could also encourage car dealers to import cleaner models. Cleaner cars include the Hyundai Kona Electric, Renault Zoe and Toyota Prius Plus, while more pollutive cars are those like the Mitsubishi Outlander 2.0 CVT, Mazda CX-5 2.5 AT and Porsche Cayenne E3. The enhanced VES is also a boon for aspiring electric car buyers, whose car models often fall under the cleanest bands. Together with the early adoption incentive scheme for electric vehicle buyers announced by LTA in February – which offers rebates capped at $20,000 per vehicle – the increased rebates under the VES will allow for savings of up to $45,000 for each new fully electric car. However, Associate Professor Transport Minister Ong Ye Kung beside a BlueSG electric vehicle (EV). He said the authorities are reviewing the plan to increase the number of EV-charging points to see if commercial parties could be roped in.

Electric vehicles also require the owner to have available charging. I think until these two are solved, the VES change will have minimal effect,” he said. Transport Minister Ong Ye Kung said yesterday that industry watchers believe that costs for motorists choosing between electric vehicles and internal combustion engine vehicles will equalise by around 2025, or earlier. Electric models are now still generally more expensive, and there were only 1,125 electric cars on the road as at January. SP, Hyundai to boost usage of electric vehicles SP Group and Hyundai Motor Group signed an agreement yesterday to accelerate the adoption of electric vehicles in Singapore. The Temasek investment fund-owned group and the South Korean automotive manufacturer will work together on various initiatives, including the expansion of Singapore’s electric vehicle-charging infrastructure to make owning an electric car more convenient for motorists. They will also jointly develop a new business model for battery leasing, which will allow electric vehicle users to lease the car battery instead of owning it. It will be the first such exploration in South-east Asia. “SP and Hyundai aim to lower the initial cost of purchasing electric vehicles, enhance the accessibility of charging points and build an ecosystem of innovative solutions that can encourage the adoption of electric vehicles in Singapore,” the two groups said in a press statement. Mr Ong referred to Singapore’s electric vehicle-charging infrastructure, which has been cited as a potential bottleneck by industry watchers who believe the lack of chargers could stop Singapore’s electric dreams in its tracks. Singapore currently has 1,800 charging points and is planning to increase this to 28,000 by 2030. Mr Ong repeated what he said in SP’s group chief executive officer Stanley Huang said electric vehicles constitute a key pillar in SP’s strategy to help Singapore achieve its sustainability goals. Singapore aims for the last internal combustion engine car to be sold in 2030 and wants to phase out internal combustion engine vehicles by 2040. Hyundai Motor Group’s senior vice-president Jung Hong-bum said the group will continue to strengthen its cooperation with various local partners, beginning with this partnership with SP group.

Schneider Electric Partners SP to Fully Electrify Service Vehicleshttps://www.spgroup.com.sg/about-us/media-resources/news-and-media-releases/Schneider-Electric-Partners-SP-To-Fully-Electrify-Service-Vehicles Media Release Schneider Electric Partners SP to Fully Electrify Service Vehicles Schneider Electric is the first corporate partner outside of the public transport sector to use SP Group’s nationwide EV charging network Singapore, 2 January 2020 – Schneider Electric (SE) and SP Group (SP) today announced a partnership to fully electrify SE’s service fleet in Singapore. The agreement enables SE’s service vehicles to access SP’s nationwide network of electric vehicle (EV) charging points. SP will fully support SE’s charging needs for at least the next two years. SE has a total service fleet size of 25. Its intent is to convert 10 of its vehicles into EVs by June 2020 and fully electrify its fleet by 2021. This decision was made possible with the partnership with SP. Damien Dhellemmes, Country President of Schneider Electric Singapore elaborates: “Going green is a deliberate decision. After greening our regional headquarters in Singapore, our next step is to electrify our fleet. This is only possible if we have an accessible and wide enough charging network so that our service vehicles can be green and still serve our customers efficiently. SP’s nationwide network gives us the impetus to make this decision.” SP had earlier signed partnerships with Grab and HDT Singapore Taxi (HDT) to support the charging needs of their EV fleets. SE is the first corporate partner outside of the public transport sector to be using SP’s nationwide EV charging network. This represents a growing trend of companies in Singapore electrifying their internal fleets to achieve environmental sustainability and cost savings. SP currently operates Singapore’s largest and fastest public EV charging network with more than 200 charging points across the island. It is targeting 1,000 EV charging points by end of 2020, of which 250 will be high-speed DC (direct current) chargers that can deliver a full charge in 30 minutes. Goh Chee Kiong, Head of Strategic Development, SP Group, said: “SP has built up deep capabilities in electric vehicle charging and usage over the years which we have harnessed for our nationwide public EV charging network. We are pleased to have Schneider Electric as our first corporate partner outside of the public transport sector and are confident this will provide a model for many other corporates to electrify their own fleet vehicles. SP’s pervasive EV charging network across Singapore will fully support their charging needs, providing drivers convenience and peace of mind.” About Schneider Electric At Schneider, we believe access to energy and digital is a basic human right.

[20201113] Straits Times - Higher rebates, surcharges to cut vehicle emissions from next yearhttps://www.spgroup.com.sg/dam/jcr:cdb796c3-b029-4dbe-a0c0-8a023522f3c5 Higher rebates, surcharges to cut vehicle emissions from next year Clement Yong Rebates on the purchase of cleaner cars will be increased by $5,000 from Jan 1 next year to Dec 31, 2022, under the Vehicular Emissions Scheme (VES). Cleaner taxis will have their rebates increased by $7,500 in the same time period, under the programme aimed at nudging motorists towards more environmentally friendly models of private transport. In the carrot-and-stick model, surcharges for more pollutive vehicles will also be increased – by $5,000 for cars and $7,500 for taxis. This will kick in on July 1 next year instead of at the start of the year to allow time for the market to adjust, and will be in effect until Dec 31, 2022, the National Environment Agency (NEA) and Land Transport Authority (LTA) said in a joint statement yesterday. The increased rebates and surcharges mean buyers of cleaner cars will be awarded with rebates of up to $25,000, up from the previous $20,000, while buyers of the most pollutive cars will be penalised by $25,000, also up from $20,000. The VES was introduced in 2018 to reduce carbon emissions on Singapore’s roads. It categorises vehicles based on emissions across five pollutants, with each category’s rebate or surcharge calibrated accordingly. NEA and LTA said the scheme has been effective in encouraging the purchase of cleaner car models, with the number of new cars that qualify for the cleanest two bands increasing by 60 per cent between the third quarter of 2018 and the first quarter of this year. The number of those in the most pollutive two bands has fallen by around 20 per cent in the same time period. Singapore University of Social Sciences associate professor of economics Walter Theseira said the VES rebates and surcharges could push motorists towards the adoption of cleaner cars in two ways. As motor car dealers usually quote a price inclusive of all taxes and certificate of entitlement bidding, a portion of the discounts usually goes to car buyers, while another could go to the dealers. This means that in addition to consumers getting a discount, the VES changes could also encourage car dealers to import cleaner models. Cleaner cars include the Hyundai Kona Electric, Renault Zoe and Toyota Prius Plus, while more pollutive cars are those like the Mitsubishi Outlander 2.0 CVT, Mazda CX-5 2.5 AT and Porsche Cayenne E3. The enhanced VES is also a boon for aspiring electric car buyers, whose car models often fall under the cleanest bands. Together with the early adoption incentive scheme for electric vehicle buyers announced by LTA in February – which offers rebates capped at $20,000 per vehicle – the increased rebates under the VES will allow for savings of up to $45,000 for each new fully electric car. However, Associate Professor Transport Minister Ong Ye Kung beside a BlueSG electric vehicle (EV). He said the authorities are reviewing the plan to increase the number of EV-charging points to see if commercial parties could be roped in. PHOTO: ONG YE KUNG/FACEBOOK Theseira noted that there are additional factors to consider with regard to electric vehicles. “The number of electric vehicle models is still very limited compared with that of internal combustion engines. Electric vehicles also require the owner to have available charging. I think until these two are solved, the VES change will have minimal effect,” he said. Transport Minister Ong Ye Kung said yesterday that industry watchers believe that costs for motorists choosing between electric vehicles and internal combustion engine vehicles will equalise by around 2025, or earlier. Electric models are now still generally more expensive, and there were only 1,125 electric cars on the road as at January. SP, Hyundai to boost usage of electric vehicles SP Group and Hyundai Motor Group signed an agreement yesterday to accelerate the adoption of electric vehicles in Singapore. The Temasek investment fund-owned group and the South Korean automotive manufacturer will work together on various initiatives, including the expansion of Singapore’s electric vehicle-charging infrastructure to make owning an electric car more convenient for motorists. They will also jointly develop a new business model for battery leasing, which will allow electric vehicle users to lease the car battery instead of owning it. It will be the first such exploration in South-east Asia. “SP and Hyundai aim to lower the initial cost of purchasing electric vehicles, enhance the accessibility of charging points and build an ecosystem of innovative solutions that can encourage the adoption of electric vehicles in Singapore,” the two groups said in a press statement. Mr Ong referred to Singapore’s electric vehicle-charging infrastructure, which has been cited as a potential bottleneck by industry watchers who believe the lack of chargers could stop Singapore’s electric dreams in its tracks. Singapore currently has 1,800 charging points and is planning to increase this to 28,000 by 2030. Mr Ong repeated what he said in SP’s group chief executive officer Stanley Huang said electric vehicles constitute a key pillar in SP’s strategy to help Singapore achieve its sustainability goals. Singapore aims for the last internal combustion engine car to be sold in 2030 and wants to phase out internal combustion engine vehicles by 2040. Hyundai Motor Group’s senior vice-president Jung Hong-bum said the group will continue to strengthen its cooperation with various local partners, beginning with this partnership with SP group. It is currently working closely with local universities such as Nanyang Technological University, start-ups and research institutes to create smart city solutions and brainstorm new future business areas. There are currently about 1,800 charging points in Singapore. The aim is to have more than 28,000 by 2030.
