Energy Saving Tipshttps://www.spgroup.com.sg/dam/jcr:45a88db1-f6ed-441b-96e4-cadcb85f4b9c/Energy%20Saving%20Tips.pdf
Energy Saving Tips for Consumers BEDROOM Air Conditioner • Use fans instead of air-conditioners to keep cool. • If using fans alone is not enough to keep cool, run the air-conditioner for about an hour before switching to the fan. • Service your air-conditioners regularly. Besides the filters, the condition of other components such as the refrigerant, pipe and motor also affects energy efficiency. • Clean the filters regularly. Dirty filters impede airflow and cause energy wastage • Set the air-conditioner temperature to 25℃ or higher. The lower the temperature, the more electricity used. • Choose an inverter air-conditioner. • Shut the doors and windows when using air-conditioners. Computer • Switch off your computer completely when not in use for long periods. • Enable the power management features of your computer, such as switching to lower power sleep mode or hibernation mode after idling for a certain amount of time (e.g., more than 5 minutes). • Choose a laptop over a desktop as laptops consume less electricity. Iron • Start with clothes that require lower temperatures (e.g., silk and wool) before ironing those that require higher temperatures (e.g., cotton). This will prevent unnecessary heating, cooling, reheating. • Select the temperatures for the various fabrics. Overheating the iron will not only waste electricity, but also damage your clothes. BATHROOM Water Heater • If you have an instantaneous water heater, switch it on before you shower and switch it off immediately after use. • Cut down on long showers. Taking shorter showers save both electricity and water. Did you know? Unlike instantaneous water heaters, storage water heaters continue to use energy to heat water when they are left switched on. KITCHEN Refrigerator • Cover liquids and food stored in the refrigerator. Uncovered items release moisture, forcing the compressor to work harder to keep the temperature low. • Allow food to cool before putting them into the refrigerator. Hot food causes the compressor to work harder to keep the temperature low. • Do not overload the refrigerator to ensure that cold air can circulate freely. • Do not place the refrigerator near heat sources such as stoves, ovens or direct sunlight. The higher the ambient temperature, the more energy the refrigerator consumes. Instead, place the refrigerator in a cool place with good circulation. • Allow some space around the refrigerator to enable heat to escape from the compressor and condensing coil. • Do not open the refrigerator door unnecessarily. • Do not leave the refrigerator door open longer than necessary. Decide what you need from the refrigerator beforehand. • Set the refrigerator to the recommended temperature. • Thaw frozen food in the refrigerator instead of using the microwave oven. • Ensure that your refrigerator door seals are airtight. Electric Airport • Boil water only when needed. • Use a thermal flask to store hot water. KITCHEN Cooking Habits • Cover the pot while cooking. Food cooks faster in covered pots. • Match the size of the pot with the size of the burner. Energy is lost when small pots are used on larger burners. • Use a microwave oven to cook or warm leftovers instead of a conventional oven. • Use an over timer instead of opening the oven door to check your food. • Clean your cooking appliances regularly so that heat can be transferred more efficiently. • Check the seal on your oven door for cracks or tears to retain heat more effectively. • Plan your cooking procedures and prepare your ingredients ahead to reduce unnecessary energy usage. Washing Machine and Dryer • Wash with an optimal laundry load to maximise energy savings. • Use the right amount of detergent to avoid washing or rinsing the load unnecessarily. • Pre-soak or use a soak cycle for heavily soiled garments to avoid two washing cycles. • Use the economy mode to save energy. • Select a clothes dryer with energy-saving features, such as the ability to strop drying once it senses that the clothes are sufficiently dry. • Dry with an optimal laundry load whenever possible. Save even more energy by air-drying lightweight items and using the clothes dryer only for heavier items. • Choose a clothes dryer of suitable capacity that meets your family needs. LIVING ROOM Lighting • Choose energy-saving lighting such as compact fluorescent lamps and LED bulbs. Avoid incandescent lamps. • Use dimmers, timers or sensors to control the level and duration of lighting needed. • Clean lamps and light fixtures regularly. Dust on lamps and reflectors reduces light transmission. • Whenever possible, use natural light for your lighting needs. Television • Dim the light while watching television. This saves electricity while cutting glare from the screen. • Always switch off your TV set-top box at the power socket as it consumes the highest standby power. • Lower the brightness and contrast settings of your TV. Standby Mode • Switch off your home appliances at the power socket when they are not in use. Standby power can account for up to 10% of your home energy use.
200 electric cars up for Grab from next yearhttps://www.spgroup.com.sg/dam/jcr:5d278d16-99dc-4052-aabc-acf16a94acdb

PHOTO: GRAB, SP GROUP 200 electric cars up for Grab from next year Zhaki Abdullah Ride-hailing firm Grab will bring in 200 new electric cars from next year, as part of a partnership with energy utilities provider SP Group. Grab said yesterday the new vehicles, which will hit the roads progressively from early next year, will be available through its rental arm GrabRentals. Under the partnership, Grab drivers will enjoy preferential rates at SP Group’s electric-vehicle charging stations and discounted parking when their cars are being charged. In June, SP Group announced that it would introduce a network of 500 fast-charging stations by 2020 to be placed in areas such as housing estates and business parks, with the first 30 to be set up by the end of this year. Grab said it would work with SP Group to study usage patterns of its electric vehicles to improve the accessibility and utilisation of charging stations. The Singapore-based ride-hailing firm said more details regarding cost of charging, as well as the electric vehicle models to be used, will be available by the end of this year. It said, however, the cars will have a range of 400km per charge, which allows for a full day of driving on 40 minutes of charging. Mr Goh Chee Kiong, SP Group’s strategic development head, said the partnership with Grab will help “accelerate the wider adoption of EVs (electric vehicles) in Singapore and support the nation’s efforts to reduce our carbon footprint”. “With SP joining our consortium of EV partners, Grab is in a unique position to help drive a cleaner, greener Singapore by encouraging more of our drivers to adopt EVs,” said Grab Singapore head Lim Kell Jay. While fully-electric cars are already available through Grab, their numbers are not known. Green vehicles have taken off recently, with the number of electric and plug-in hybrid cars here at 647 as of last month, up from 137 two years ago. Taxi giant ComfortDelGro introduced two fully-electric Hyundai Ioniq cabs to its fleet last month as part of a one-year trial, while HDT Singapore Taxi will expand its fully-electric fleet from 100 currently to 800 by July 2022. azhaki@sph.com.sg

Sembcorp and SP Group to Collaborate on an Environmental Sustainability Platformhttps://www.spgroup.com.sg/about-us/media-resources/news-and-media-releases/Sembcorp-and-SP-Group-to-Collaborate-on-an-Environmental-Sustainability-Platform
News Release Sembcorp and SP Group to Collaborate on an Environmental Sustainability Platform Platform to offer one-stop global solution to help customers meet sustainability targets Singapore, 27 October 2020 – Leading energy companies Sembcorp Industries (Sembcorp) and SP Group (SP) are collaborating to develop an Environmental Sustainability Platform, a one-stop global solution to help corporates and consumers achieve their sustainability goals. The launch of the platform is planned for the first quarter of 2021. The platform aims to include a marketplace that trades renewable energy certificates (RECs) and carbon credits as well as provide carbon consulting services. RECs are a recognised way of achieving green targets and a credible means for buyers to report their consumed energy comes from renewable energy sources. Carbon credits are tradable certificates that allow buyers to offset their greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) by supporting projects aimed at reducing GHG emissions. Carbon consulting services include analysis, advisory and strategy development to assist corporates in achieving their carbon emission reduction targets. The momentum for climate action is accelerating. In 2015, Singapore pledged to reduce the nation’s emission intensity by 36 per cent from 2005 levels by 2030, and to stabilise emissions with the aim of peaking around 20301 . The national target is to halve emissions from its peak to 33 million tonnes of CO2 equivalent by 2050, with a view to achieving net zero emissions as soon as viable in the second half of the century. Increasingly, companies are incorporating environmental, social and corporate governance (ESG) factors into their business strategies and practices, which has led to growing demand for environmental solutions to offset GHG emissions. The Environmental Sustainability Platform will tap on the expertise of both parties to provide consultancy services that encompass physical and digital solutions across energy, water and waste management – enabling corporates to achieve their GHG reduction targets. More companies have joined the RE100, a global initiative that brings together the world’s leading businesses committed to using only renewable electricity. As of September this year, the number of companies who have set Science Based Targets2 to pursue efforts to limit global warming to 1.5oC has increased by about 45 per cent from the same period in 2019. The Sembcorp-SP collaboration will cater to demand among corporates and consumers to reduce their carbon intensity and improve their sustainability credentials. Mr Stanley Huang, SP’s Group Chief Executive Officer said: “This platform complements SP Group’s full suite of sustainable energy solutions that enable individuals and corporates to achieve a lowcarbon, smart energy future. We contribute through deep experience and a strong track record of serving our strong base of 1.6 million industrial, commercial and residential customers in Singapore and the region, as well as operating the world’s first blockchain-powered RECs platform.” Mr Wong Kim Yin, Group President and Chief Executive Officer, Sembcorp Industries, said: “Our partnership with SP is timely as more customers pivot towards low-carbon energy goals. We are well positioned to add value through our strong global energy expertise, digital innovation and renewables portfolio. This offering, together with the 2,600MW renewable energy assets we have developed across key markets, enables Sembcorp and our customers to contribute actively towards a sustainable future.” SP Group, through its existing REC platform, has been providing corporates with a one-stop automated process of buying and selling of RECs by the I-REC Standard3. Customers enjoy the convenience, ease and transparency for the issuance, transaction and redemption of RECs. In addition, SP’s My Green CreditsTM provides individuals and households in Singapore an affordable and convenient way to purchase RECs via the SP Utilities App and match their electricity consumption with an equivalent amount of green energy produced to support renewable energy generation.

[20190124] The Business Times - SP Group Brings Chinese New Year Cheer to 2300 Underprivileged Familieshttps://www.spgroup.com.sg/dam/jcr:ff8dc348-378f-4345-8758-8307bea7dd38
SP Group brings Chinese New Year cheer to 2,300 underprivileged families Singapore THE Chinese New Year period is not only a time for loved ones and friends to gather, but one to give back to the community. With that in mind, some 300 SP Group staff volunteers, who call themselves SP Heart Workers, handed out gift packs to more than 2,300 families in Buona Vista, Geylang Bahru, Punggol North, Tampines West, Toa Payoh-Balestier, Woodgrove and Yio Chu Kang. Each family received a “Power Pack” containing essential food items such as rice, Milo, biscuits and canned food – items donated and packed by SP employees. SP Group has been organising distribution drives for such gift packs since 2015. Many of these families live in districts where SP’s Heart Workers regularly spend time and resources supporting seniors and families from underprivileged backgrounds. Among the recipients were 200 residents in Toa Payoh West-Balestier, an area where SP Heart Workers regularly serve lunches to seniors at Meeting Point@128, a senior activity centre that SP Group helped to set up a year ago. These volunteers host a range of activities that include game and craftwork sessions, and even digital clinics on the use of smart phones and mobile applications; they also promote awareness of electrical and gas safety, and take the seniors on outings to places of interest. On Jan 17, the seniors were invited to a carnival held at SP Group’s headquarters.
