SP Group partners BCG Energy on solar project in Vietnam � MON, AUG 02, 2021 - 1:20 PM YONG JUN YUAN �junyuany@sph.com.sg �@JunYuanBT SP Group (SP) and BCG Energy, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Bamboo Capital JSC, have formalised a joint venture (JV) to invest in rooftop solar and other renewable energy projects in Vietnam. In a press statement on Monday, SP said that it will own 49 per cent of the JV, while the wholly-owned subsidiary of Bamboo Capital JSC will own 51 per cent. The JV will have an initial target of 500 megawatts (MW) of rooftop projects by 2025, contributing to Vietnam's target of having 30 per cent of its electricity generated through renewable energy sources by 2030. As part of the JV's rst rooftop solar project, it will work with Vinamilk, Vietnam's largest dairy production company, to install a combined 25MW of rooftop solar power across nine factories and seven farms. The installation will generate 35,000 megawatt-hour of clean electricity annually, enough to power approximately 20,000 households in Vietnam. It also amounts to a reduction of 32,000 tonnes of annual carbon emissions, equivalent to taking approximately 7,000 cars o the road. The JV will also acquire 28MW of operational rooftop solar assets across eight commercial and industrial sites located in South and Central Vietnam. BCG Energy chief executive o cer Tuan Pham noted that Vietnam completed and connected more than 100,000 rooftop systems to its grid and that there is strong growth potential in this market segment in Vietnam as it develops. "We believe this will promote the use of clean energy in manufacturing companies and contribute to the sustainable growth of the economy," he said. SP chief executive o SP as it steps into the Vietnamese market. cer Stanley Huang noted that the partnership is a key milestone for "Our combined expertise and ambition in renewable and sustainable energy solutions will o er customers more options and encourage their transition to clean energy sources," he said. The announcement comes after both sides signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) in May this year to invest in renewable energy projects in Vietnam. The MOU provided an exclusive right for SP to acquire up to 49 per cent of Skylar Joint Stock Company (Skylar), a subsidiary of BCG Energy which specialises in the development and deployment of solar assets.

The COVID-19 pandemic has brought air travel almost to a halt since the start of this year. As countries begin to ease air travel restrictions, many local residents may be looking forward to a much-needed getaway to their favourite vacation spots. According to a Guardian article in 2019, a long-haul flight emits more carbon emissions than the total emissions produced in a year by the citizens of some countries[1]. Besides air travel, there has been a huge surge in single-use plastics. Based on a TODAY Online report, an extra 1,334 tonnes of plastic waste was generated from takeaway and delivery meals in Singapore, during the Circuit Breaker period[2]. This is equivalent to the weight of 92 double-decker buses! Of all the plastic waste generated last year, ninety-six per cent was incinerated[3]. Around 3 per cent of our total greenhouse gas emissions were generated from the waste incineration process in Singapore[4]. So, how can individuals track and reduce their carbon emissions? SP Group (SP) has developed a carbon footprint calculator, which anyone can use to track the impact of daily activities and lifestyle. My Carbon Footprint enables consumers to keep tabs on the environmental impact of their energy consumption and lifestyle choices. Called My Carbon Footprint, this new feature in the SP Utilities app enables users to calculate their carbon emissions and the results are referenced against the national average. These projections are based on local data such as food consumption, driving conditions and air travel originating from Singapore. The calculator also draws its projection from common lifestyle and spending habits in Singapore, such as purchase of clothing and footwear, recreational activities or communication, to name a few. Most importantly, the calculator provides practical tips on reducing carbon footprint. My Carbon Footprint is the latest feature in the app, which also equips users to monitor and reduce their energy consumption.

Designed and built in-house, My Carbon Footprint comes with additional features from the original version that was launched in December. Users can now track their emissions from not just electricity, but also from water and gas. They can also calculate the total amount of carbon emissions of their daily activities, according to their household profile, mode and duration of commute, frequency of holiday travel, as well as spending and dining habits. This is useful especially with a Singapore household consuming an average of seven per cent more electricity during the months of April to August, due to the hotter months when there is higher usage of air conditioning. With an increase of people staying at home, it also points to higher electricity and water consumption. On average, a consumer in Singapore emits more than eight tonnes of carbon emissions annually due to their lifestyle and consumption patterns. More than 400 rain trees are required to absorb this impact on the environment.

SP Group (SP) has developed a carbon footprint calculator, which anyone can use to track the impact of daily activities and lifestyle. My Carbon Footprint enables consumers to keep tabs on the environmental impact of their energy consumption and lifestyle choices. Called My Carbon Footprint, this new feature in the SP Utilities app enables users to calculate their carbon emissions and the results are referenced against the national average. These projections are based on local data such as food consumption, driving conditions and air travel originating from Singapore. The calculator also draws its projection from common lifestyle and spending habits in Singapore, such as purchase of clothing and footwear, recreational activities or communication, to name a few. Most importantly, the calculator provides practical tips on reducing carbon footprint. My Carbon Footprint is the latest feature in the app, which also equips users to monitor and reduce their energy consumption. The SP Utilities app can be downloaded from the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.

SP has launched its Carbon Footprint calculator - My Carbon Footprint, available now on the SP Utilities App.  The upgraded calculator promotes behaviour and lifestyle changes to reduce carbon emissions through greater awareness of the environmental impact from everyday habits such as transportation, use of electrical appliances and even food consumption. Designed and built in-house, My Carbon Footprint comes with additional features from the original version that was launched in December. Users can now track their emissions from not just electricity, but also from water and gas. They can also calculate the total amount of carbon emissions of their daily activities, according to their household profile, mode and duration of commute, frequency of holiday travel, as well as spending and dining habits. This is useful especially with a Singapore household consuming an average of seven per cent more electricity during the months of April to August, due to the hotter months when there is higher usage of air conditioning. With an increase of people staying at home, it also points to higher electricity and water consumption. On average, a consumer in Singapore emits more than eight tonnes of carbon emissions annually due to their lifestyle and consumption patterns. More than 400 rain trees are required to absorb this impact on the environment.

The COVID-19 pandemic has brought air travel almost to a halt since the start of this year. As countries begin to ease air travel restrictions, many local residents may be looking forward to a much-needed getaway to their favourite vacation spots. According to a Guardian article in 2019, a long-haul flight emits more carbon emissions than the total emissions produced in a year by the citizens of some countries[1]. Besides air travel, there has been a huge surge in single-use plastics. Based on a TODAY Online report, an extra 1,334 tonnes of plastic waste was generated from takeaway and delivery meals in Singapore, during the Circuit Breaker period[2]. This is equivalent to the weight of 92 double-decker buses! Of all the plastic waste generated last year, ninety-six per cent was incinerated[3]. Around 3 per cent of our total greenhouse gas emissions were generated from the waste incineration process in Singapore[4]. So, how can individuals track and reduce their carbon emissions? SP Group (SP) has developed a carbon footprint calculator, which anyone can use to track the impact of daily activities and lifestyle. My Carbon Footprint enables consumers to keep tabs on the environmental impact of their energy consumption and lifestyle choices. Called My Carbon Footprint, this new feature in the SP Utilities app enables users to calculate their carbon emissions and the results are referenced against the national average. These projections are based on local data such as food consumption, driving conditions and air travel originating from Singapore. The calculator also draws its projection from common lifestyle and spending habits in Singapore, such as purchase of clothing and footwear, recreational activities or communication, to name a few. Most importantly, the calculator provides practical tips on reducing carbon footprint.

Impacting people’s lives Singapore Power engineer Thiruchelvam Ranjan loves what he does because the outcome is tangible and necessary At a glance n n n About 2,400 technical professionals required by 2020. 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.

Safety Performance Criteria Policy.pdfhttps://www.spgroup.com.sg/dam/jcr:357660c9-748b-4390-a5fe-4d1ffa7016a4/Safety%20Performance%20Criteria%20Policy.pdf
SAFETY PERFORMANCE CRITERIA Introduction 1. With effect from 1 April 2022, all tenders called by Singapore Power Limited and its Singapore incorporated subsidiaries (SP Group) will include a tender evaluation criteria that takes into account the participating tenderer’s safety performance in their contracts with SP Group. With effect from 1 April 2023, this criteria is extended to subcontractors with LTI. 2. This is in line with SP Group’s core value that safety is our highest priority and all our suppliers and contractors must continuously adopt good safety practices and prevent accidents from occurring. Tender Evaluation Criteria 3. All open and closed tenders published on or after 1 April 2022 by SP Group shall include the new Safety Performance criteria as part of its tender evaluation criteria. 4. The Safety Performance criteria shall be a 1 st level evaluation criteria together with Price and/or Quality and shall be of a overall weightage of not less than 10% of the total evaluation score. 5. For tenders that is evaluated based solely on lowest compliant priced tender with no requirement to assess quality (e.g supply of standard items such as HP toner cartridges), the following evaluation method shall apply: Total Evaluation Score (100%) = Safety Performance (10%) + Price (90%) 6. For tenders that is evaluated based on Price and Quality factors, the following evaluation method shall apply: Total Evaluation Score (100%) = Safety Performance (10%) + Price (X%) + Quality (Y%) Where X + Y = 90% 7. For the avoidance of doubt, other safety related evaluation criteria such as the proposed safety measures to be taken for the tendered project or the tenderer’s past safety awards shall be accounted separately under the Quality score. Safety Performance 8. Safety Performance of tenderers shall be assessed by taking into account the occurrence of any Loss Time Injury (LTI) incidents in the past 2 years prior to tender closing date. In the event of the occurrence of any incidents that results in fatality or serious injury in the past 1 year prior to the tender closing date, the bid submitted by the tenderer may be rejected by SP Group. For the avoidance of doubt only incidents occurring on or after 1 April 2022 will be considered. 9. Loss Time Injury incidents for the purpose of this Safety Performance criteria refers to any incidents where: a. It is a work-related injury occurs which results in lost work time of one work day or more; b. The incident occurred while the tenderer was carrying out works under a contract with SP Group; and c. The incident occurred on or after 1 April 2022. 10. Any incidents that occur in the course of the Tenderer’s work in contracts with other parties are not accounted under this criteria’s scoring but may considered in the final decision for award.

Gas Transportation Tariffs - Shippers with Customers Off-taking NG at High Pressure (wef 1 Apr 24).pdfhttps://www.spgroup.com.sg/dam/jcr:600f24a3-8991-4c52-8d31-c357761b0cb2/1.%20Gas%20Transportation%20Tariffs%20-%20Shippers%20with%20Customers%20Off-taking%20NG%20at%20High%20Pressure%20(wef%201%20Apr%2024).pdf
GAS TRANSPORTATION TARIFFS (for Shippers with customers off-taking natural gas at high pressure) (W.E.F. 1 Apr 24) 1 Introduction 1.1 Under the Gas Network Code, PowerGas is the Gas Transporter and is responsible for maintaining the reliability and safety of the gas transportation network in Singapore. PowerGas’ transportation business is regulated by the Energy Market Authority (EMA). The transportation tariffs levied by PowerGas are approved by the EMA. 1.2 PowerGas charges transportation tariffs for the transport of gas through its network. PowerGas’ transportation tariffs are levied on Shippers and not the end-users. End-users’ transportation charges imposed by Shippers are commercial arrangements between both parties. 2 Natural Gas Transmission Tariffs 2.1 There are two gas transmission networks, namely Transmission Network 1 and Transmission Network 2. Transmission Network 1 refers to the natural gas transmission network conveying both piped natural gas and regasified LNG from West Natuna (Indonesia) and the LNG Terminal. Transmission Network 2 is the natural gas transmission network conveying both piped natural gas and regasified LNG from South Sumatra (Indonesia), Attap Valley (Malaysia) and the LNG Terminal. 2.2 Transmission tariffs consist of capacity and usage charges (refer to Section 3 below for details). These charges are applicable to Shippers off-taking gas at high pressure. The same charging structure also applies to Shippers with Small Transmission Customers (i.e. with load less than or equal to 5 bbtud). 3 Transmission Charging Structure 3.1 Shippers book capacity with PowerGas to transport gas from designated injection points to off-take points. Shippers pay entry and exit charges based on their respective booked capacity. In addition, a usage charge is levied on the volume of gas transported. 3.2 Arising from EMA’s notification to the industry dated 21 March 2024, a GSC of 20 cents/mmBtu for PNG Injection Points or GSC of 2 cents/mmBtu for LNG Injection Points is imposed on PNG and LNG gas users respectively with effect from 1 Apr 24 to recover the cost associated with Strategic Capacity (as defined in EMA's Policy Paper issued to the industry dated 30 Sep 2019). The Transporter will collect the GSC from all Shippers as an agent for and on behalf of SLNG. The GSC will be reviewed from time to time as directed by EMA and will be included as an uplift in the usage charge. Details of the transmission charges are shown in Table 1 of the Appendix. 3.3 These transmission charges do not include specific cost items which need to be determined on a case-by-case basis for inclusion into the final transmission charges. 3.4 For Shippers with Small Transmission Customers (i.e. requiring gas at high pressure, but with load of less than or equal to 5 bbtud), the transportation charges as shown in Table 2 of the appendix shall apply. 3.5 Shippers will have to pay Overrun Charges in the event they off-take gas above their booked capacity. These Overrun Charges are necessary to encourage the efficient use of the gas network. There are two types of Overrun Charges: • Authorised Capacity Overrun Charge: If a Shipper applies for additional capacity above the booked capacity (i.e. capacity overrun), the Authorised Capacity Overrun Charge, equivalent to 1.25 times the Transmission Capacity Charge rate, shall be applied on that additional capacity. 2 • Unauthorised Capacity Overrun Charge: If a Shipper does not apply for Authorised Capacity Overrun for utilisation of additional capacity above the booked capacity, it will pay 2 times the Transmission Capacity Charge rate for that additional capacity utilised. 4 Appendix – Table of Charges Transmission Network 1 (locational) Transmission Network 2 (locational) Table 1: Transmission Charges (Exclusive of GST) Entry Capacity Charge per annum ($/MMBtu/hr) Exit Capacity Charge per annum ($/MMBtu/hr/km) Transmission Usage Charge ($/MMBtu) 729.81 47.41 0.0071 1,375.68 (Attap Valley Injection Point) 1,000.54 (Sakra Injection Point) 39.40 0.0121 New Pipeline – utilised 246.96 246.96* 0.0030 New Pipeline – excess 240.38 240.38* 0.0037 GSC for PNG Injection Point N.A N.A 0.2000 GSC for LNG Injection Point N.A N.A 0.0200 * in $/MMBtu/hr per annum Transmission Network 1 (locational) Transmission Network 2 (locational) Table 1a: Transmission Charges (Inclusive of 9% GST) + Entry Capacity Charge per annum ($/MMBtu/hr) Exit Capacity Charge per annum ($/MMBtu/hr/km) Transmission Usage Charge ($/MMBtu) 795.49 51.68 0.0078 1,499.50 (Attap Valley Injection Point) 1,090.59 (Sakra Injection Point) 42.95 0.0132 New Pipeline – utilised 269.19 269.19* 0.0033 New Pipeline – excess 262.02 262.02* 0.0040 GSC for PNG Injection Point N.A.
