News Release UOB and SP Group partner to offset 100% or more of household electricity carbon emissions for UOB EVOL cardholders Cardholders can now achieve their sustainability goals seamlessly and conveniently when they charge their utilities bills to their card Singapore, 23 November 2022 – UOB EVOL cardholders will now be able to offset 100 per cent or more of their household electricity carbon footprint for free when they charge SP Group’s (SP) utilities bills to their credit card, via a new exclusive feature jointly launched by UOB and SP this month. With this new feature, when customers charge SP utilities bills to their UOB EVOL card, UOB will fund and contribute 2 per cent of the billed amount to purchase My Green Credits on the SP app on behalf of the customer. My Green Credits is an affordable and convenient way for customers to get on the sustainability movement by greening their energy consumption through the purchase the amount of “green credits” in the form of Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs)1. For example, when customers charge a $90 utilities bill to their UOB EVOL card, they will receive $1.80 worth of complimentary My Green Credits from UOB, equivalent to 2% of the billed amount. My Green Credits is purchased at a cost of S$0.12 per 25 kWh, which will translate to offsetting 375 kWh (kilowatt hour) or equivalent to an average national 4-room HDB flat’s electricity usage. This is equivalent to offsetting 100 per cent of the home’s electricity carbon footprint (see Annex for illustration). New UOB EVOL cardmembers paying their SP bills via the SP app will automatically enjoy the complimentary My Green Credits, while existing cardholders who are using the SP app to pay their bills before 10 November 2022 will simply need to do a one-time re-add of their EVOL card as a payment method to be eligible. My Green Credits will be automatically reflected within the customer’s SP app, with no additional effort required from them when bill payments are made. This benefit is available for both one-time and recurring SP bills payments. UOB EVOL card is the first in the market to partner with SP Group, Singapore’s national grid operator and leading sustainable energy solutions provider in the region, to offer customers complimentary My Green Credits when they use their EVOL Card to make utilities payment. This feature is applicable to all existing and new EVOL cardholders. The My Green Credits purchased will go towards supporting sustainable energy project developments in the region for the generation of green energy. 1Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) are tradable green energy attributes that represent units of electricity generated from renewable energy generation facilities. These facilities comply with and are registered under internationally recognised standards, such as the I-REC standard, and are eligible to be issued RECs for every unit of electricity generated. A credit card that supports the green initiative UOB EVOL card is designed to appeal and serve the needs of younger customers, particularly their increasing focus on sustainability. The UOB EVOL Card is Southeast Asia’s first credit card to use bio-sourced materials to minimise ecological footprint. The EVOL Card is made of 84 percent polylactic acid (PLA) and created from renewable sources which are safe for incineration process. An EVOL Card that has expired and discarded is biodegradable in an industrial facility. Each EVOL card cuts down the use of plastic by 84 per cent and reduces carbon footprint by 10 grams per card. EVOL card also has a strong partnership with over 30 green partners to increase customers’ awareness of sustainability in their daily spending. This new card feature is another innovative initiative to further help them contribute to sustainable efforts seamlessly and conveniently. Ms Jacquelyn Tan, Head of Group Personal Financial Services, UOB, said “We understand that every customer has unique needs, preferences and goals, and this drives us to do right by them, to serve them in a way that meets their needs. Our wide suite of credit cards provides a comprehensive range of benefits and rewards to cater to different groups of customers on their differing needs. Through our partnership with SP, we are happy to further support the younger generation’s sustainability goals with our UOB EVOL card. This also shows UOB’s commitment towards sustainability, as we empower customers to work with us to tackle climate change and to forge a more sustainable future together.” Mr Luke Tang, Head of Strategy and Sustainability, SP Group, said “We are pleased to partner UOB to catalyse behaviour that promotes sustainability and the use of renewable energy certificates on the SP App to green household electricity consumption. As younger customers chart their sustainability journeys, we look forward to empowering them with green platforms and resources and collectively accelerate Singapore’s progress towards net zero.” The SP app was launched by SP as the first sustainability lifestyle app in Singapore. It aims to incorporate green solutions and initiatives to provide users with insights and solutions to manage their utilities and to reduce their carbon footprint. In addition to My Green Credits, users can also use the app to manage their utilities, reduce electricity consumption and contribute to Singapore’s sustainability targets to achieve a low-carbon future. On another sustainable front, as part of the UOB EVOL Card My Green Credits launch, SP supported National Parks Board’s (NParks) OneMillionTrees movement to plant a million more trees across Singapore by 2030 through NParks’ registered charity and IPC, Garden City Fund’s Plant-A-Tree programme. UOB and SP will plant 50 trees in April 2023, bringing us closer to realising our vision of becoming a City in Nature, a key pillar of the Singapore Green Plan 2030. Strategic partnership to create better solutions for customers This year marks the fourth year of partnership between UOB and SP, with joint efforts to empower customers on their green goals. Previous collaborations include the purchase of RECs through SP as part of a National Day promotion in 2021 for the EVOL card. UOB has also launched an API with SP in 2020, to allow UOB customers to instantly use their UNI$ to off-set their utility bills. Moving forward, UOB will work with SP to launch another new feature in the first quarter of 2023 that allows UOB cardholders to use their UNI$ to redeem for My Green Credits via the SP mobile app. They can choose which local or international renewable energy projects that they would like to support with the My Green Credits redeemed. Under the My Green Credits initiative, SP is supporting various green projects ranging from a solar farm in Vietnam, to a wind farm in Thailand, to a solar rooftop system in Singapore, to help reduce emissions and impact on the environment. In line with Singapore’s strong push to electrify its vehicle population, ecosystem, UOB and SP also have plans to provide promotional offers to customers who use their UOB cards to pay for electric vehicles (EV) charging at SP EV charging points. Over the past 2 years, UOB has been building up a suite of sustainable future solutions to make it simpler for customers to create impact with their everyday choices. The Bank has an established sustainable investing approach which set standards for its Singapore and regional footprint by curating a suite of sustainable investments across funds, bonds and structured products. This includes its first UOB Personal Financial Services (PFS) secured loans green product framework, serving as the foundation of its Go Green home and car loans. The framework leverages insight from Morningstar Sustainalytics, a leading global provider of ESG research, ratings, and data. In November 2022, UOB also will be availing a digital doorway to sustainable banking on the UOB TMRW app, allowing customers to easily access green deals, investments and banking products on mobile. Through the app, customers will also receive eco-friendly tips for the holiday festivities, and personalised insights to bank and live more sustainably in 2023.   ANNEX: Illustration of offsetting customers’ carbon footprint with UOB EVOL Card

A simulated environment also ensures that the workforce could be trained in scenarios which are rare in the power sector but can lead to plant shutdowns. A unique feature of the CPPS courses is that various Gencos have committed to provide trainers who are industry practitioners, who will be able to impart valuable knowledge and skills to the participants. 5. As part of the launch of the CPPS, SIPG has introduced a structured training programme consisting of two new Power Generation Certificate Programmes with certificates recognised by all Gencos. Certificates will be issued upon the completion of the CPPS courses, as well as other Power Generation courses offered by SIPG. 6. Minister of State (MOS) for Trade and Industry Low Yen Ling officiated the launch of the CPPS at SIPG today. In her opening speech, MOS Low commended key industry partners for the strong collaboration to bolster the competency of its workforce. 7. Mr Chia Soo Ping, Principal of SIPG, said: “As the energy landscape continues its dynamic and transformative journey, SIPG is focused on cultivating competencies and technological know-how needed for the industry to keep pace with change. The Gencos’ collaborative and structured approach promotes sharing and adoption of best practices. The Centralised Power Plant Simulator training reaps efficiencies and optimises the pooling of resources and expertise across all Gencos in Singapore to strengthen the overall resilience of the workforce for the energy sector.” 8. On the launch of the CPPS, Ms Violet Chen, EMA’s Industry Ecosystem Development Director, said: “We are heartened by the collective effort of SIPG and Gencos to strengthen the training of its workforce. The Power sector will continue to play a critical role in keeping the lights on and gas flowing for Singapore as we step up efforts to advance Singapore’s energy transition towards a sustainable future.”

Media Release SP Group donates $850,000 for preventive outreach to isolated youths, run by Youth Guidance Outreach Services Cyber Outreach initiative aims to prevent them from becoming “hidden youth”. SINGAPORE, 5 DECEMBER 2025 – SP Group (SP) is donating S$850,000 to Youth Guidance Outreach Services (YGOS), to support its Cyber Outreach initiative, providing rehabilitation and prevention programmes for youths who may be addicted to online gaming and face the risk of social isolation. Through early intervention, the initiative aims to prevent them from becoming “hidden youth” – individuals who are disconnected from school, family, and the community and isolate themselves at home. This builds on SP Group’s past contributions to YGOS’ outreach programmes, bringing its total contributions to S$1.6 million. The initiative was launched today by Mr Xie Yao Quan, Advisor for Jurong Central GROs. Mr Xie witnessed the presentation of SP’s donation to YGOS, which was made through Community Chest. Extensive social isolation among youths can lead to poor physical health, strained family relationships, increased risks of psychological issues and even suicidal behaviours[1]. According to the Ministry of Manpower’s 2024 Labour Force Survey[2], around 17,000 youth, aged 15 to 24, in Singapore were not in school, employed nor undergoing any form of training in 2023. This represents 4.1 per cent of youth in Singapore who may be at risk of becoming “hidden youth”. This year, the government reaffirmed its commitment to preserve social mobility and strengthen safety nets – building a nation that prioritises youths and future generations. In his first parliamentary address as Prime Minister, Lawrence Wong[3] cited growing concerns among young people on intensified competition and social stratification, highlighting similar global trends such as "躺平 (tang ping)" in China, "hikikomori" in Japan and "quiet quitting" in the West. He emphasised Singapore’s commitment to defy these trends. Mr Xie said, “The world our youth face today is changing faster than ever – shaped by technology, global challenges, and evolving social norms. As a community, we must respond with understanding and action by creating safe spaces, strengthening family bonds, and offering various pathways for learning and growth. Together, we can help young Singaporeans feel valued and supported in building their future.” Mr Stanley Huang, Group CEO of SP Group, added, "Our youth today are the foundation and future talent pipeline for our nation’s growth and development. We are committed to empowering them with the right support and resources to thrive in an increasingly complex digital world. By effectively engaging them where they are, we can connect with them in ways that resonate with their interests, and foster a sense of self-worth and belonging. This in turn can help build their confidence, hone their social skills and prepare them for a smooth transition into young adulthood.” “We believe that early intervention is critical in supporting youths before challenges escalate. With the launch of our Cyber Outreach, a dedicated team to run the programme, and through our ongoing initiatives, we aim to extend sphere of connections and mentoring efforts. These will help us go further in creating a stronger and more supportive ecosystem – where every youth feels safe, seen, and empowered to do their best”, said Wilson Tan, Executive Director of YGOS. One of the youths who has benefitted from the intervention programme is 14-year-old Joey Chung. Joey was constantly immersed in online activities as she felt unseen and unheard. Before joining YGOS, she often hid behind the screen – a common behaviour among hidden youths who turn to gaming or online spaces to feel safe. At YGOS, Joey found something different: a genuine connection with a community that values her for who she is, beyond just a username. “I usually play Roblox with my online friends through a masked identity,” she said. “But here, I feel supported and can be myself. The mentors here actually care, listen and encourage me to express my doubts and concerns, and share about things that bring me joy.” A highlight of the event today was a gaming tournament attended by youths between the ages of 13 and 24 years old and community partners. About 120 participants, including a team from SP’s gaming interest group, competed in Mobile Legends: Bang Bang, a multiplayer online battle arena mobile game. By bringing the youths together to interact in person on a common interest in a safe, environment, the event aims to foster genuine connections and build a sense of community. Beyond the tournament, the youths explored educational and interactive booths hosted by YGOS, REACH Community Services and Fei Yue Community Services. These booths offered various outreach services such as how YGOS’ Cyber Outreach team connects with hidden youths online to draw them out of isolation. In 2023, SP contributed $750,000 to YGOS to launch the first-of-its-kind mobile youth engagement outpost with an electric vehicle, and to enable the full refurbishment of its youth centres in Woodlands and Ang Mo Kio to expand service delivery and outreach programmes.

Media Release Singapore’s largest industrial district cooling system begins operations to support STMicroelectronics’ decarbonisation strategy Designed, built, owned and operated by a joint venture between SP Group and Daikin Airconditioning (Singapore), the innovative district cooling system will significantly improve the environmental performance of ST’s high-volume semiconductor manufacturing site in Singapore New system expected to reduce carbon emissions by 120,000 tonnes per year, cooling-related electricity costs by 20 percent each year, and repurposing over half a million cubic meters of water consumption per year 21 October 2025, Geneva, Switzerland, and Singapore – STMicroelectronics (NYSE: STM), a global semiconductor leader serving customers across the spectrum of electronics applications, and SP Group (SP), a leading utilities group in the Asia Pacific and Singapore’s national grid operator, have commenced operations for Singapore’s largest industrial district cooling system at STMicroelectronics’ (ST) Ang Mo Kio TechnoPark. The event was inaugurated by Ms. Low Yen Ling, Senior Minister of State, Ministry of Trade and Industry and Ministry of Culture, Community and Youth. The system is expected to reduce carbon emissions by up to 120,000 tonnes per year and enable 20 per cent savings on cooling-related electricity consumption. It will also repurpose over half a million cubic meters of water each year by using reject reverse osmosis water, previously used in ST Cooling Towers, to support the new district cooling operations.  This marks ST’s first use of district cooling at a manufacturing facility and will strengthen ST’s commitment to be carbon neutral by 2027. “The deployment of Singapore’s largest industrial district cooling system at our Ang Mo Kio TechnoPark demonstrates our commitment to pioneering energy-efficient solutions that reduce carbon emissions and conserve resources. This achievement strengthens our partnership with Singapore in advancing its national sustainability goals, said Rajita D’Souza, President of Human Resources and Corporate Social Responsibility at STMicroelectronics. “By integrating advanced technologies like the district cooling system, we are driving a smarter, greener future — showcasing how industry leadership and environmental stewardship align to create lasting value for our business, communities, and the planet.” “SP Group’s strategic partnership with STMicroelectronics marks a pivotal milestone in our nation’s transition towards a low-carbon future. This project showcases how collaborative innovation can transform urban infrastructure to deliver sustainable, energy-efficient solutions. District cooling will continue to play a vital role in Singapore’s net-zero ambitions, enabling carbon emissions reduction and enhancing energy resilience across industrial and urban developments,” said Mr Stanley Huang, SP’s Group Chief Executive Officer.  Technical information about the district cooling system  Designed, built, owned, and operated by a joint venture between SP and Daikin Airconditioning (Singapore), the system has an installed capacity of up to 36,000 refrigeration tonnes (RT). It delivers continuous chilled water to cool both manufacturing and office spaces via a centralised closed-loop pipe network replacing individual chillers in each building. The total area served by the system is approximately 90,000 square metres. Chillers in series counterflow configuration reduce the energy required to cool the water. This ensures an efficient and reliable 24/7 operation, with remote monitoring capabilities augmenting the operations team on site to come. “This partnership with SP reflects Daikin’s commitment to delivering advanced, energy-efficient solutions that go beyond immediate operational needs. Our goal is to contribute to a more sustainable built environment, where technology plays a key role in enhancing resilience, reducing environmental impact, and supporting Singapore’s long-term climate ambitions,” said Mr Chua Ban Hong, Managing Director at Daikin Airconditioning (Singapore). Additionally, the new installations free up around 4,000 square metres of space at Ang Mo Kio TechnoPark, which will enable ST to install other equipment contributing to environmental impact mitigation. This includes perfluorocarbon (PFC) abatement equipment, with near-future plans for additional water reclamation systems and volatile organic compounds (VOC) abatement as part of its ongoing sustainability efforts. The project achieved over 2 million accident-free man hours, underscoring the commitment to safety during construction. The district cooling plant has been awarded the Green Mark Platinum Super Low Energy certification by the Building and Construction Authority for its exceptional energy efficiency and sustainable design. Incorporating whole-life carbon assessments during design and construction of the plant also enabled a reduction of about 44 percent in embodied carbon compared to industrial building benchmarks, achieved through optimised material choices and system design to further lower the plant’s carbon footprint. Further collaboration between STMicroelectronics and SP Group To accelerate its decarbonisation roadmap, ST has also partnered with SP to upgrade the cooling system at its Toa Payoh site. Under a 20-year chilled-water-as-a-service agreement, SP will design, build, operate, and maintain a new high-efficiency chiller system, scheduled for completion by December 2025. The system will improve energy efficiency and aims to reduce carbon emissions by approximately 2,140 tonnes annually. In addition to sustainable cooling solutions, ST and SP are implementing a range of sustainable technologies across ST’s Ang Mo Kio and Toa Payoh campuses. This includes the deployment of the energy management information system (EMIS), comprising 2,400 smart electricity meters and multi-utility sensors. With SP’s smart metering infrastructure in place, ST can monitor its overall energy consumption – enabling data-driven decisions that enhance efficiency and sustainability. SP has also implemented smart water meters that track water inflow to five of ST’s buildings. This provides ST with an accurate view of its water consumption, allowing the organisation to enhance its critical wafer fabrication operations by ensuring greater water efficiency. Together, the partnership delivers on a shared vision for a smarter, cleaner energy future through integrated digitalisation and decarbonisation at scale.  

News Release SP Group Expands Marina Bay District Cooling Network With New Partnerships 8 Shenton Way, IOI Central Boulevard Towers, 80 Anson Road, Marina Bay Sands Integrated Resort Expansion and NS Square, will be connected to the world’s largest underground district cooling network Sustainable cooling solution helps Marina Bay avoid almost 20,000 tonnes of carbon emissions annually Singapore, 20 April 2022 – SP Group (SP) announced that it will be providing its energy efficient district cooling services to five upcoming new and retrofit developments – 8 Shenton Way (formerly AXA Tower), the commercial component of 80 Anson Road (formerly Fuji Xerox Towers), IOI Central Boulevard Towers, Marina Bay Sands Integrated Resort Expansion and NS Square – through its Marina Bay District Cooling Network. Marina Bay is planned as a sustainable live-work-play district, and all developments are served by a comprehensive underground network of common services tunnels that houses the district cooling system.1 The addition of the five developments will further expand the world’s largest underground district cooling network, bringing the total number of buildings served by SP’s Marina Bay operations to 28. SP’s sustainable cooling solution will help the Marina Bay district reduce its carbon emissions by 19,439 tonnes annually while providing the same cool comfort. This is equivalent to removing 17,672 cars off our roads. At an appreciation event held earlier today which marked the expansion of the Marina Bay District Cooling network, Mr Desmond Lee, Minister for National Development and Minister-in-charge of Social Services Integration, presented certificates of appreciation to the building owners of the five buildings – City Developments Limited (CDL), IOI Properties, Marina Bay Sands Singapore, NS Square, and Perennial Holdings – affirming their commitment to the sustainable development of our city centre. Through subscribing to district cooling, the new developments will enjoy reliable cooling comfort with the network achieving zero supply interruptions since the Marina Bay District Cooling operations started in 2006. Without the need to invest in their own chillers, the new developments will enjoy a lower initial investment cost compared to a conventional air-conditioning system. The savings on equipment, operating and maintenance costs will also reduce the total cost of ownership by up to 15 per cent. Having centralised chiller plants also frees up prime space for other commercial or lifestyle purposes, potentially increasing asset yield for building owners. SP’s Group Chief Executive Officer, Mr Stanley Huang, said, “SP Group is the largest district cooling solutions provider in Singapore. With the expanded infrastructure in place, we are pleased to extend the same reliable and sustainable solution to other buildings in Singapore’s core financial district and look forward to welcoming more partners to this network. Together, we can accelerate the development of greener buildings and cities to achieve Singapore’s ambitious sustainability targets.” In addition to the energy savings and the reduction in carbon emissions, developments will also benefit from the centralisation of ownership and maintenance of their cooling systems under a district cooling operator, ensuring optimal operations at all times. SP as the district cooling operator is responsible for meeting the industry sustainability standards. Under the latest BCA Green Mark 2021 (GM: 2021) green building certification scheme, buildings supplied by an external district cooling system (DCS) plant have a dedicated pathway to demonstrate their energy efficiency performance, allowing for a more seamless certification experience. With the inclusion of these new customers, SP will be increasing the capacity of its Marina Bay district cooling network to 70,000 refrigerant tons (RT). It will also add more than two kilometres of underground insulated pipes to the network to cater to the additional demand and cooling capacity. To further enhance the reliability of the network, SP is exploring installing thermal storage tanks in the neighbouring Central Business District to increase the network’s energy storage capacity. These auxiliary chilled water tanks will enable the existing network to significantly reduce its peak load consumption and support future expansion of the cooling network beyond the Marina Bay vicinity. Additional energy storage capacity will also facilitate the incorporation of more renewable energy sources to the grid by mitigating the intermittency of renewables while maintaining grid stability and reliability. The deployment of energy storage systems, such as thermal storage tanks, is in line with government’s energy storage target and vision of a clean and efficient energy future. SP continues to actively engage with potential customers to further expand the Marina Bay district cooling network. It is currently studying the feasibility of M Hotel Singapore, a hotel under the CDL Group, being the first brownfield hotel development to incorporate district cooling in its operations. In addition to the Marina Bay district cooling network, SP is also collaborating with the Housing and Development Board (HDB) to deploy Singapore’s first residential centralised cooling system for up to 22,000 households at the upcoming Tengah housing estate by 2023. SP will also be developing Singapore’s first brownfield, sustainable cooling solution for a town centre at Tampines. When completed, SP will be operating a total 118,500 RTs of cooling capacity through its district cooling networks, extending its lead as the biggest provider of district cooling solutions in Singapore. 1District cooling in Marina Bay provides centralised cooling to developments in the area. There are two district cooling plants in Marina Bay, both situated underground and seamlessly integrated with the surrounding developments, providing greater reliability of services and allows more efficient use of energy across the district.

SP Energy HubAnnual ReportReliabilitySustainabilityInnovation Shaping the evolution of electricity meters in the past 25 years RELIABILITY Vice President of SP Services’ Metering Branch Razali Bin Mohd. “If my coral dies, you pay”, is a customer’s comment that 51-year-old Razali Bin Mohd recalls in an unforgettable experience during his earlier days as an engineer. His team was carrying out electricity meter replacement works then. In this unique situation, when the customer was informed that the power supply will be temporarily disrupted during the replacement, she requested for a mobile electrical generator to keep her coral tanks maintained at four degrees Celsius during the servicing period. Handling a multitude of customer requests, is part and parcel of stakeholder management in Razali’s job at SP Group (SP). Over his 25 years with SP, the Vice President of SP Services’ Metering Branch has seen the evolution of analogue electricity meters manually read by meter readers to smart meters that can now be monitored remotely. As of May 2022, Razali and his team have deployed over 650,000 smart electricity meters islandwide. In the next few years, all 1.4 million residential households in Singapore will be equipped with smart meters. “I cherish this experience the most as we took great lengths to incept this idea and eventually see it come to fruition. As this project had a nation-wide impact, I remembered we went to the Parliament to present our plans to the Mayors, and convinced the relevant agencies to support our deployment plan.” Razali now has another ambitious task ahead of him. Besides rolling out smart electricity meters nationwide, his team also won the contract for Singapore’s first large-scale smart water meter programme for PUB in Apr 2021. Over the next 15 years, they will be developing the metering system, enhancing the wireless communications network, deploying, operating and maintaining over 300,000 smart water meters. “We faced intense competition against strong contenders and various challenges during the tender process. Our strong teamwork and expertise in smart electricity meter deployment has enabled us to secure this strategic partnership. The late-night calls with counterparts from different parts of the world were all worth it!” Interestingly, his career options after graduating as an electrical engineering graduate from Nanyang Technological University were between a cadet pilot at a leading airline and an engineer at SP. He received SP’s letter of offer on the day of his final round of interview for the cadet pilot position. “I just went with my gut feel and I am convinced now looking back, it was meant to be.” he recalled fondly.   Razali with his colleagues from the metering team at the old St James District Office in 2011. Back in the late 90s, Razali’s key responsibilities included working with contractors to install and maintain meters for residential and commercial customers, procure new meters, handle project tenders and manage customer feedback.  The implementation of smart electricity meters in Singapore has been the highlight of his career. Razali with colleagues from SP Services and SP Digital on an overseas trip to Itron’s office in San Francisco, to adopt best practices from the implementation of the US’ smart meter programme. Before the opening of Singapore’s electricity retail market in 2014, Razali and his team travelled to San Francisco and Melbourne to learn how these cities deployed smart meters successfully. “The study trip shortened our learning curve and prevented potential pitfalls.” SP is one of the first few utility companies in the world that has separated its communication network card from the meter. In other parts of the world, communication modules are integrated within the meters. Hence, if the communication part fails, the entire meter must be replaced. In Singapore, the decision was to adopt a “modular” structure for parts to be replaced separately if they are faulty. This will not only save cost, but also eliminate supply interruption and reduce inconvenience to the customers. CEO of SP Services Law Chin Ho (sixth from left) and Razali with the SP Services team that won the contract for Singapore’s first large-scale smart water meter programme for PUB in Apr 2021. Razali is thankful for all the growth opportunities at SP and is committed to continue rising to the challenges in the evolving energy industry. “I wake up every day looking forward to the next challenge at work. I am thankful for the wonderful team support. We are constantly innovating and finding solutions to problems. It gives me a huge sense of job satisfaction!” Volunteering trip with SP colleagues in Cambodia in 2015. In his free time, Razali enjoys travelling for nature walks, trekking, snorkelling, and exploring other types of land and sea activities. He also finds meaning in organising charity trips to children’s orphanages in Thailand, Cambodia and Indonesia and has even rallied his colleagues to join him in distributing essential items for these vulnerable communities. With borders reopening, Razali hopes to revive this initiative very soon!
