Media Release SP Group partners Wuhou District Government to develop smart eco-district in Chengdu Partnership with district government will transform Wuhou into the benchmark for smart and sustainable districts in Chengdu. Smart energy solutions to be deployed at the International Urban Design Centre from 2021. Chengdu, China and Singapore, 13 July 2021 – SP Group (SP) announced a partnership with People’s Government of Wuhou District, Chengdu, to transform the largest of five city centre districts in Chengdu, to a smart eco-district. Through this partnership, SP will deploy smart and sustainable energy solutions to accelerate the city’s urban renewal masterplan. Wuhou is a mature government and civic district identified for revitalisation in Chengdu’s urban renewal masterplan. The masterplan aims to rejuvenate and transform existing buildings and districts into sustainable ecosystems that drive economic growth, innovation and cultural engagement for Chengdu. At a signing ceremony witnessed by Ms Xiong Miao, Head of International Economic Trade Partnerships, Chengdu Commerce Bureau; Ms Lin Li, District Deputy Secretary and District Mayor, People’s Government of Wuhou District, Chengdu; and Ms Foo An Gie, Regional Group Director, West China, Enterprise Singapore, SP Group inked two Memorandums of Understanding (MOU) and was appointed the energy and building solutions partner for International Urban Design Centre (IUDC) in Wuhou, Chengdu. Under the MOUs, SP will serve as the sustainable energy solutions partner to the district government with the objective of establishing the district as the benchmark for smart eco-districts in Chengdu. With an estimated rejuvenation pipeline of over 630,000 sqm (gross floor area) over the next five years, the collaboration will explore a wide range of solutions to help the city meet future infrastructural demands in a sustainable way. This includes developing and implementing technologies and digital solutions such as advanced data analytics and artificial intelligence tools to support the city’s roadmap to carbon neutrality. In the first phase under the partnership, SP will design, build, own and operate an integrated energy solution that includes district cooling and heating system, smart metering, energy management and monitoring for IUDC over the next 25 years, at an estimated total contract value of 110 million (SGD). The solution will provide building owners with real-time insights on their energy and utilities usage data to help them optimise building performance, energy efficiency and comfort for end- users. IUDC consists of four existing buildings with an estimated gross floor area of 48,000 sqm. Group Chief Executive Officer of SP Group, Mr Stanley Huang, said, “Chengdu is a key growth engine in southwestern China and an important hi-tech hub. We are excited to partner the Wuhou district government to create a sustainable, livable and vibrant city centre. Over time, the ability to ensure adaptive reuse of established buildings to meet new needs becomes critical. Leveraging our experience in Singapore and China, we will implement green energy technology and digital solutions to push the limits of buildings’ energy efficiency and performance standards.” In China, SP Group invested, designed, and operates Raffles City Chongqing’s energy-efficient cooling and heating system since 2019 to deliver energy savings for the customer. SP also established a joint venture in August 2020 to develop district cooling, heating and integrated energy solutions that will help the China-Singapore Guangzhou Knowledge City (CSGKC) achieve energy savings and efficiency targets. SP Group currently has three offices in China (Guangzhou Chongqing and Chengdu), with its China headquarters located in Shanghai.

Media Release Electricity Tariff Revision for the Period 1 October to 31 December 2024 Singapore, 30 September 2024 – For the period from 1 October to 31 December 2024, the electricity tariff (before GST) for households will decrease by 2.6% or 0.78 cent per kWh compared with the previous quarter due to lower energy costs. The average monthly electricity bill for families living in HDB four-room flats will decrease by $3.00 (before GST). Electricity tariffs (before GST), including tariffs for non-households, will decrease by an average of 2.5% or 0.70 cent per kWh compared with the previous quarter. SP Group reviews the electricity tariffs every quarter based on guidelines set by the electricity industry regulator, Energy Market Authority (EMA). The electricity tariffs may fluctuate quarter to quarter due to volatile global fuel prices. Please refer to Appendix 1 for the components of the electricity tariff, Appendix 2 for the electricity tariffs approved by EMA, and Appendix 3 for the average monthly electricity bill for households. Appendix 1 BREAKDOWN OF ELECTRICITY TARIFF The electricity tariff consists of the following four components: Energy costs (paid to the generation companies): This component is adjusted quarterly to reflect changes in the cost of fuel and power generation. The fuel cost is the cost of imported natural gas, which is tied to oil prices by commercial contracts. The cost of power generation covers mainly the costs of operating the power stations, such as the manpower and maintenance costs, as well as the capital cost of the stations. Network costs (paid to SP Group): This is to recover the cost of transporting electricity through the power grid. Market Support Services Fee (paid to SP Group): This is to recover the costs of billing and meter reading, data management, retail market systems as well as market development initiatives. Market Administration and Power System Operation Fee (paid to Energy Market Company and Power System Operator): This fee is reviewed annually to recover the costs of operating the electricity wholesale market and power system.   Q4 2024 TARIFF FOR HOUSEHOLDS (before 9% GST) Appendix 2 ELECTRICITY TARIFFS FROM 1 OCTOBER 2024 Appendix 3 AVERAGE MONTHLY ELECTRICITY BILLS FOR HOUSEHOLDS TARIFF WEF 1 OCTOBER 2024 (before GST)
SP Group launches SP Kids at Heart to boost children's learninghttps://www.spgroup.com.sg/about-us/media-resources/news-and-media-releases/SP-Group-launches-SP-Kids-at-Heart-to-boost-children-s-learning
News Release SP Group launches SP Kids at Heart to boost children's learning New programme kickstarts with S$1 million donation to benefit 2,000 KidSTART children Singapore, 23 June 2021 – SP Group (SP) has launched SP Kids at Heart to support young children from low-income families in their learning journey. Kickstarting the initiative, SP is donating S$1 million to benefit KidSTART children aged 0-6 years old from low-income families. The SP Kids at Heart funds will provide educational tools, books and toys in the form of learning and development packs for about 2,000 KidSTART children for a year. The funds will also enable these children to receive electronic devices such as tablets and internet routers to support their online engagement and learning during the pandemic. In addition, SP will provide grocery vouchers and other financial assistance packages including tools and equipment that enable a more conducive home learning environment. SP’s S$1 million donation will go to Community Chest which will administer the funds and disburse them to KidSTART to support its learning and assistance packages. Speaking at the virtual launch of SP Kids at Heart, Minister for Social and Family Development and Chairman of the Growing Together (GT) with KidSTART Council, Mr Masagos Zulkifli said, “We launched the Growing Together with KidSTART initiative in 2019 to help us achieve greater impact for our families through deeper government and community partnerships. SP Group has shown us how corporates can play their part in building a society of opportunities together even amid a pandemic, sustaining a culture where those who have done well give back for the betterment of society. I look forward to many more meaningful initiatives in our partnership.” SP Group Chairman Tan Sri Hassan Marican said, “We are expanding our community outreach to help children, who are the future of Singapore. Through SP Kids at Heart, we can give them the best possible start in their formative years, with access to the right developmental and educational materials. This includes digital tools to ensure their learning is not disrupted during the pandemic. For parents, we aim to equip them with soft skills to help them connect better with their children and support them in their holistic education.” SP Kids at Heart complements SP’s existing programmes for seniors through the SP Heartware Fund and sustained volunteer activities throughout the year. SP’s staff volunteers, known as SP Heart Workers, will assemble and deliver the welcome and learning packs to the families. The Heart Workers will also help install the routers for families who need assistance, and produce instructional videos to work around safe management guidelines. When physical interaction permits, SP Heart Workers will be involved on-site to engage the children while their parents attend sessions with the facilitators. Madam Shariffah Dayana Binte Syed Hassan Al-Yahya, mother of three-year-old Rumi, who is part of the KidSTART programme, shared, “Since Rumi joined the programme, he has become more confident and grown more interested in learning new things. The materials we have received helped Rumi to expand his vocabulary and become more expressive. As a parent, the most important thing is for our children to grow up well. With SP Kids at Heart, I am grateful that he can get the support he needs for a better future.” Mr Brennan Lee, father of three-year-old Shaya, said, “Through the KidSTART programme, the time we spent with the facilitator was well planned and well structured. There was an outcome in mind and we had quality bonding with our child, that has helped her development. Because of her heart condition, her motor skills were limited, and she couldn’t say many words initially. After attending the programme, we can see the difference. She is more lively, her motor skills and vocabulary have improved, she is more sociable and smiles more too.” Amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, SP continues to give back to the community in a sustained manner. Since 2005, more than S$17 million has been raised for the SP Heartware Fund in aid of programmes for seniors under Community Chest. SP has also provided over 7,200 meals for seniors in Toa Payoh West – Balestier since 2018.  This year, SP Heart Workers continued with its annual Power Packs charity drive to bring bags of daily essential food items to seniors in need. The SP Charity Golf event in April raised S$500,000 for the SP Heartware Fund.

Daikin and SP Group Form New Joint Venture to Build Singapore’s Largest Industrial District Cooling Systemhttps://www.spgroup.com.sg/about-us/media-resources/news-and-media-releases/Daikin-And-SP-Group-Form-New-Joint-Venture-To-Build-Singapore-s-Largest-Industrial-District-Cooling-System
News Release Daikin and SP Group Form New Joint Venture to Build Singapore’s Largest Industrial District Cooling System Singapore, 18 May 2022 – Daikin Singapore ("Daikin") and SP Group (“SP”) announced the formation of a new joint venture (JV), in conjunction with an earlier announcement by STMicroelectronics (ST) and SP to establish Singapore’s largest industrial district cooling system for ST’s Ang Mo Kio TechnoPark. The JV will build the district cooling system (DCS) which will have a cooling capacity of up to 36,000 refrigerant tonnes(RT). When completed in 2025, it will help ST achieve 20 per cent savings in cooling-related electricity consumption annually and support ST’s target of achieving carbon neutrality by 2027. Daikin and SP also signed a separate Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to explore the potential of district cooling in other Southeast Asian countries, starting with Indonesia. Under the MOU, Daikin and SP will combine their expertise, experience and resources to bring this sustainable cooling solution to the various markets to help lower their energy consumption and reduce their carbon footprint. The expanded collaboration between both companies signifies their commitment to empower smart, low-carbon cities across the region, and to support Singapore’s sustainability ambitions under the Singapore Green Plan 20301. “We are excited to collaborate with SP Group, and we look forward to working together closely towards greater environmental sustainability”, said Mr Yoshihiro Mineno, Daikin Industries, Ltd. Moving towards a greener, cleaner future This project aligns with Daikin’s mission to build upon Singapore's ongoing roadmap for greener buildings as well as the longer-term vision for a Singapore Smart-city that includes sustainability in its advocacy. The JV will be 70 percent owned by SP and 30 percent by Daikin. It will build the new district cooling plant for ST Ang Mo Kio (AMK) Technology Park. By centralising chilled water production, the new facility is designed to optimise chiller efficiency and deliver a 24/7 chilled water supply to meet ST’s wafer fabrication needs. In addition, Daikin will be deploying one of its most efficient 2,000-tonne HFO Chiller for this project. HFO or Hydrofluro-Olefins is the new generation of synthetic refrigerants with zero ozone depletion effect and is designed to significantly reduce the Global Warming Potential2. Group Chief Executive Officer of SP Group, Stanley Huang, said, “We are honoured to partner Daikin in this joint venture to provide district cooling to STMicroelectronics at AMK TechnoPark. We look forward to a broader collaboration in Southeast Asia with Daikin.” Reducing carbon footprint and moving towards sustainability In line with the nation’s green vision, Daikin hopes to achieve net-zero by the year 2050 by reducing greenhouse gas emissions and is constantly working towards this goal. The company plans on achieving this by making conscious changes in its entire value chain: life cycle of products, manufacturing, work processes through solution propositions, innovative technologies, and the use of IoT and AI. The ultimate goal here is to contribute toward a cleaner, safer environment to combat climate change issues and move towards a sustainable future. Daikin Singapore has been working with a keen focus on lowering its carbon footprint. As such, the company plans on leveraging its latest chiller software and optimisation expertise3 for this project. Daikin is also planning to launch other green initiatives, including a solution that uses chemical-free water treatment4 that leverages applied electrochemistry and an intelligent controller to enhance system performance, providing a sustainable and scalable solution to large building HVAC systems and industrial chiller circuits, but also saves energy, water, maintenance and chemical costs in cooling water management. Daikin fully supports our national directions and is keen to play an active role in this journey, especially in going Green, Smart and Sustainable in the Living Environment. With this project, we are excited to take another step towards our goals for a sustainable smart nation,” said Mr Liu Shaw Jiun, Daikin Airconditioning Singapore Pte Ltd. Daikin and SP first collaborated back in 2020 to bring Singapore’s first large-scale residential centralised cooling system to the upcoming Tengah HDB Town. Both companies will continue to explore future opportunities to help create energy-saving models and help Singapore and the rest of Southeast Asia move towards a resilient, sustainable future About SP Group SP Group is a leading utilities group in the Asia Pacific, empowering the future of energy with low-carbon, smart energy solutions for its customers.

About Daikin Singapore In the beginning, Daikin Singapore has placed its strategic focus on HDB, building a stronger sales channel by developing Daikin Proshop and thereby differentiating itself from its competitors. With more than 50 years of history in Singapore, Daikin also drove expansion by launching differentiated products such as Remote Monitoring System (RMS), which provides energy optimization and predictive analytics. In Applied Product equipment (AP), which is mainly used in the commercial or industrial sector, it expanded sales by focusing on highly efficient products like magnetic-chiller products and airside using EC motors. Its services business was solely related to the repair and supply of spare parts and since with the acquisition of BMS Engineering, the company has started to focus on Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) and Eco-Friendly Maintenance, where it aims to support green building projects. Daikin will then optimize AC equipment and other building equipment implementation before moving towards providing a full suite of services by adding Energy Management to its portfolio to manage equipment for the whole building. The expansion of Daikin technology and know-how in the cooling industry has enabled Daikin to scale up their green projects to build District Cooling Networks for Tengah and now STMicroelectronics Website: https://www.daikin.com.sg - Ends - 1https://www.greenplan.gov.sg/splash 2https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1757-899X/905/1/012070/pdf 3https://www.daikin.com.sg/building-solutions/bms/water-sideoptimisation 4https://www.daikin.com.sg/building-solutions/environmental-solutions/chemical-free-water-treatment
[20191030] Media Release - SP Group Sets Up First Zero-Emission Building Powered By Green Hydrogen In Southeast Asiahttps://www.spgroup.com.sg/dam/spgroup/wcm/connect/spgrp/c9d8ef18-9a18-4b91-a98b-0e0c0f611b68/%5B20191030%5D+Media+Release+-+SP+Group+Sets+Up+First+Zero-Emission+Building+Powered+By+Green+Hydrogen+In+Southeast+Asia.pdf?MOD=AJPERES&CVID=
Media Release SP GROUP SETS UP FIRST ZERO-EMISSION BUILDING POWERED BY GREEN HYDROGEN IN SOUTHEAST ASIA Singapore, 30 October 2019 – SP Group (SP) has established the first zero-emission building in Southeast Asia that is powered by green hydrogen. Located at SP’s training centre at Woodleigh Park, the self-sustaining building is 100% powered with renewable energy via an innovative Hydrogen Energy System and is disconnected from the national electricity grid. Mr Brandon Chia, Head, Centre of Excellence, SP Group said: “Buildings contribute 40 per cent of energy related carbon emissions worldwide 1 . The Hydrogen Energy System provides a safe and compact way of storing green hydrogen which powers the region’s first zero-emission building. We believe this can be a significant contributor toward Singapore’s climate change pledge to cut national emissions intensity by 36 per cent below 2005 levels by 2030.” The challenge to achieving zero emission The world in its fight against climate change is using various means to lower carbon emissions. One way is to use renewable energy sources. However, in urban places such as Singapore, due to limited land and inconsistent solar energy, achieving zero emission with 100% renewable energy is extremely challenging. Zero-emission solution An alternative is hydrogen as a green energy source. In the Hydrogen Energy System used by SP, electricity from green sources, such as solar, is used to conduct electrolysis. The hydrogen generated from this process is bonded with special metal alloy powders to form metal hydride, compacted and stored in tanks. When electricity supply is required, the stored hydrogen from the metal hydride tanks is slowly released and converted to electricity via fuel cells. As green energy sources are used for electrolysis, this entire process of converting hydrogen to electricity is 100 per cent green, with zero carbon emission. 1 The buildings and building construction sectors combined are responsible for nearly 40% of total direct and indirect CO2 emissions (International Energy Agency). 1 Safe hydrogen storage While there have been other energy systems using hydrogen as a fuel, the key challenge of hydrogen lies in having a storage solution that is safe for deployment in highly-urbanised areas such as Singapore. The system uses special metal alloy as a storage medium to bond with hydrogen. This allows for the storage of a large volume of hydrogen at a much lower pressure over a long period of time without any deterioration. When electricity is needed, the stored hydrogen is released in a slow and regulated manner, making it safer and more compact to be stored in an urban setting. Encourages greater mix of renewable energy The Hydrogen Energy System can mitigate electricity supply fluctuations and intermittency issues – common shortcomings of renewable energy. When there is surplus renewable energy, it can be stored in the form of hydrogen and converted back to electricity when there is a deficit of renewable energy. This ensures that the grid remains stable even with a greater mix of renewable energy introduced, hence encouraging the use of green energy. SP is working with Marubeni Corporation and Tohoku University on the Hydrogen Energy System with special metal alloy storage tanks from Japan, and to customise and integrate it for use in Singapore. -Ends- 2 About SP Group SP Group is a leading energy utilities group in the Asia Pacific.
