Page 5 of 5 Last updated on 30 October 2019 Singapore Polytechnic Students Rebuild Solar Car After Setback, Supported By Singapore Powerhttps://www.spgroup.com.sg/about-us/media-resources/news-and-media-releases/Singapore-Polytechnic-Students-Rebuild-Solar-Car-After-Setback--Supported-By-Singapore-Power News Release Singapore Polytechnic Students Rebuild Solar Car After Setback, Supported By Singapore Power   Singapore, 29 September 2015 – Just three weeks from departure for a prestigious international race, Singapore Polytechnic students’ chances of competing were crushed when their self-built solar car, SunSPEC4 was destroyed. Undaunted, the Singapore Polytechnic team rose to the challenge to rebuild the car, with strong support from sponsor Singapore Power. The team of 52 students and lecturers worked nights and weekends to rebuild a new vehicle in four weeks, compared to eight months for the original car. With additional funding and logistical support from Singapore Power, the team acquired and assembled parts under a highly-compressed schedule. Airfreight saved two weeks, compared to marine freight. Singapore Power alumni – all alumni of Singapore Polytechnic – also provided additional support. The polytechnic’s team is the only Singapore contender in what is considered the toughest solar car race in the world. The team will travel 3,000km from Darwin to Adelaide in six days, using only solar energy. Singapore Power is the sponsor of this initiative, through a five-year $1 million-partnership. The wide-ranging agreement will enable the Singapore Polytechnic team to compete at the biennial World Solar Challenge in 2015, 2017 and 2019. Mr Steven Chew, Team Manager and Senior Lecturer at the polytechnic’s School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, said, “The students had worked so hard to create the solar car. Just when we were ready to unveil it and pit it against the world’s best at the World Solar Challenge, the setback took everything away. We were devastated to see 20 months of hard work totally destroyed in front of us. But we received strong encouragement from our Board and management, and the students responded by committing to rebuild the car to stay in the Challenge. This became possible when Singapore Power stepped up their sponsorship, including airfreighting the car, which shaved two weeks from the schedule.” Mr Lee Kok Kin, Singapore Power’s Head of Group Risk Management and alumni of the polytechnic, said “Singapore Power stepped up our support so that the entire production can be expedited, especially with supply of materials. We also helped to secure space for road testing. My colleagues and I, all alumni, joined the team to help where we are needed. We want to see our juniors bounce back from this setback, and are committed to supporting them with funding, time and all resources necessary.” Singapore Power Group CEO Mr Wong Kim Yin said, “It is important that we support the students to help them overcome the setback. Against all odds, they have committed themselves to stay in the World Solar Challenge. We must nurture this resilient, “never-say-die” spirit in our younger generation. Singapore can be proud of our SunSPEC team as they hold our flag high in Australia!” Besides being Singapore’s sole entry, SunSPEC4 is the only team from a polytechnic, competing alongside leading global universities such as Stanford University, Cambridge University, and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The team is in the advanced Cruiser Class category of the competition which encourages the cars to be designed for practicality and acceptance in today’s market segment.

Participants in the Cruiser Class race some 3,000km across the breadth of Australia from Darwin to Adelaide, without a single drop of fuel and with only one mid-point charging station. Vehicles operate on actual roads, at road speeds. Singapore Polytechnic is participating in the World Solar Challenge for the third time, with SunSPEC4 as its first entrant in the Cruiser Class. About the partnership between Singapore Power and Singapore Polytechnic Singapore Power and Singapore Polytechnic announced a SGD $1 million, five-year partnership which will see the two organisations collaborate to participate at the next three editions of the World Solar Challenge in 2015, 2017 and 2019. As part of the partnership, Singapore Power will contribute building materials, subject-matter expertise, logistics and public education. Singapore Power’s key objectives for this partnership are: To nurture and develop the next generation of engineers and talents Sustainability – To develop energy efficiency initiatives in caring for the environment Innovation – To promote renewables and innovation in technology developments, such as Solar Powered devices Project Overview About the Team   Size:  43 students, nine lecturers and three Singapore Power engineers Background : Multi-disciplinary team representing expertise from the schools of Electrical & Electronic Engineering; Mechanical & Aeronautical Engineering; and Digital Media & Infocomm Technology The team designed and built the original SunSpec4 over a 20-month period – from December 2013. Following a fire on 25 August 2015, the team subsequently rebuilt a new SunSPEC4 from scratch in just four weeks. Singapore Power stepped up its sponsorship to help the team stay in the race. The new SunSPEC4 was also rebuilt with the additional safety measures: Reinforcements to strengthen solar car body Solar panels able to follow body contour for improved aerodynamics Improved battery system with compartmentalisation and usage of flame retardant materials Enhanced battery management system with external fuse protection for battery system Improved ventilation for driver and passenger Detailed handling checklists and procedures, covering e.g. mechanical, battery, and motor subsystems About SunSPEC4   SunSPEC4 is Singapore Polytechnic’s fourth solar car, and its first two-seater model. Designed and built completely in-house, SunSPEC4 resembles a futuristic saloon car – albeit one powered solely by solar cells. In contrast to the polytechnic’s previous solar models, SunSPEC4 is designed to perform similarly to a standard commercial car in terms of speed, seating capacity, and range. Incorporating leading-edge technology throughout its engineering, many of the car’s features out-perform commercial variants. For example, SunSPEC4 weights a mere 220kg – a fifth of an average 1.6 litre car, and uses thinner solar panels which are approximately 10 per cent more efficient than typical commercial versions. SunSPEC4’s drag coefficient of 0.13 is more than 50 per cent more efficient than an average passenger car. The car is Singapore Polytechnic’s most technologically advanced and highest performing model to date. SunSPEC4 will be Singapore’s sole representative at the World Solar Challenge; and the only team from a polytechnic, competing alongside leading global universities such as Stanford University, Cambridge University, and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. For the first time in Singapore Polytechnic’s participation at the World Solar Challenge, the team will be competing in the more advanced Cruiser Class. In this category, teams are encouraged to design their cars based on innovation, energy consumption, as well as practicality and acceptance from end-users. SunSPEC4 Key Specifications Dimensions: 4.5m (l) x1.8m (w) x 1.2m (h, max) Body: Full carbon fibre body Motor Drive System: 2-wheel drive, powered by two – 2 kilowatt high efficiency brushless DC motor Top Speed: 90 – 100 km/h Drag Coefficient: 0.13 Passenger Capacity: 1 driver and 1 passenger Power Supply: 122V 15 kW Li-ion battery pack – The car runs on less power than a household electric kettle Unladen Weight: 220kg  - About a fifth of the weight of an average 1.6litre family sedan Driving Range: A single charge provides a range of 500km – enough to drive a journey from Singapore to Malacca and back Media Release - Singapore Polytechnic Students Rebuild Solar Car After Setback, Supported By Singapore Powerhttps://www.spgroup.com.sg/dam/spgroup/wcm/connect/spgrp/7f993018-17d4-45a3-bf7d-f750fd3c267e/%5B20150929%5D+Media+Release+-+Singapore+Polytechnic+Students+Rebuild+Solar+Car+After+Setback,+Supported+By+Singapore+Power.pdf?MOD=AJPERES&CVID= 29 September 2015 News release For immediate release SINGAPORE POLYTECHNIC STUDENTS REBUILD SOLAR CAR AFTER SETBACK, SUPPORTED BY SINGAPORE POWER Singapore, 29 September 2015 – Just three weeks from departure for a prestigious international race, Singapore Polytechnic students’ chances of competing were crushed when their self-built solar car, SunSPEC4 was destroyed.

Annex 1 SunSPEC 4 Rises From The Ashes It was a near-miracle that SunSPEC 5’s predecessor, SunSPEC 4, took to the roads at the 2015 World Solar Challenge. SunSPEC 4 was destroyed in a fire on 25 August 2015, just three weeks before it was scheduled to be shipped off to Darwin, Australia, for the race flag-off. Undaunted, the Singapore Polytechnic team of 52 students and lecturers worked through nights and weekends to rebuild a new vehicle in four weeks, compared to eight months for the original car. With additional funding and logistical support from SP Group, the team acquired and assembled parts under a highly-compressed schedule. Airfreight saved an extra two weeks, compared to marine freight. SP Group staff – all alumni of Singapore Polytechnic – also provided additional support and mentorship before and during the race in Australia. SP Group recognised the tenacity, determination and passion of the students towards this project and launched the SunSPEC Polytechnic & University Sponsorship scheme, specifically for Singapore Polytechnic students involved with SunSPEC4 and for two subsequent editions of the solar car. About the partnership between SP Group and Singapore Polytechnic SP Group and Singapore Polytechnic formalised a SGD $1 million, five-year partnership for the two organisations to collaborate in participating at the World Solar Challenge in 2015, 2017 and 2019. SP Group is contributing funding, manpower, subject-matter expertise, logistics and public education. Singapore Power’s key objectives for this partnership are: • Nurture and develop the next generation of engineering talent • Innovative sustainable solutions – develop energy-efficiency initiatives and promote the use of renewable and green technology such as solar powered applications and energy storage systems. About the World Solar Challenge The World Solar Challenge is considered one of the world’s toughest solar car challenges, and regularly sees leading global universities such as Cambridge University, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and Stanford University participating. The SunSPEC team is competing in the advanced Cruiser Class category which focuses on sustainable transport solutions and will test the car’s practicality and responsiveness to real-world challenges. Participants in this Class race undergo the arduous road trip over 3,000km in the Australian outback from Darwin to Adelaide, using mainly power from the sun, with minimal grid charging. Vehicles operate on actual roads, at road speeds. Annex 2 About the Team & SunSPEC 5 Size Background 35 students, 12 lecturers and 3 SP Group staff Multi-disciplinary team representing expertise from the schools of Electrical & Electronic Engineering; Mechanical & Aeronautical Engineering; Digital Media & Infocomm Technology and Communication, Arts & Social Sciences The team designed and built SunSPEC 5 over a 20-month period – from December 2015. SunSPEC 5 is Singapore Polytechnic’s fifth solar car, and its second two-seater model. Designed and built completely in-house, SunSPEC 5 resembles a futuristic saloon car – albeit one powered by solar cells and batteries. In contrast to the polytechnic’s previous solar models, SunSPEC 5 is designed to perform similarly to a standard commercial car in terms of speed, seating capacity, and range. Incorporating leading-edge technology throughout its engineering, many of the car’s features out-perform commercial variants. For example, SunSPEC 5 weighs a mere 330kg (unladen) – a quarter of an average 1.6-litre car. SunSPEC 5’s drag coefficient of 0.13 is more than 2.5 times more efficient than an average passenger car. SunSPEC 5 uses ultra-low rolling resistance tires which are 6 times more efficient than regular car tires. The car is Singapore Polytechnic’s most technologically advanced and highest performing model to date. This year, SunSPEC 5 will feature new innovative green technologies, including being fitted with ultra-high efficiency silicon solar cells which are more efficient than those used in 2015. The flexible solar panel encapsulation has very low loss and allows the car to absorb indirect sunlight, thereby maintaining cell efficiency. The flexible solar panel is also able to conform to the shape of car for better aerodynamics. SunSPEC 5 is equipped with very efficient Maximum Power Point Trackers to maximise solar array. It is installed with a custom-designed telemetry system to monitor the car’s parameters, allowing team to optimise vehicle performance. The car also features a cruise control mode, which reduces driver fatigue, minimises variation in speeds under manual control, and improves vehicle performance. SunSPEC 5 will be Singapore’s sole representative at the World Solar Challenge; and the only team from a polytechnic, competing alongside leading global universities such as Stanford University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. For the second time in Singapore Polytechnic’s participation at the World Solar Challenge, the team will be competing in the more advanced Cruiser Class.

Annex 1 Key Projects Featured 1) Scone Project Brief Scone aims to increase renewable energy generation in Singapore significantly using a solar cone. The solar cone is a hybrid that uses solar cone and solar-concentrating lenses to maximise energy absorption onto a solar cell. This cone promises to produce more than five times the energy than a conventional solar panel. It is essentially a higher efficiency concentrator photovoltaic that aims to harness more energy per unit area. Utilising solar technology, a heat exchanger and a cone structure, the cone generates both solar and thermal energy. There is intention to implement the solar cone at the rooftop of residential units as it allows excess heat to be converted to heated water for residential usage. This technology taps on expertise from district cooling. Benefits to customers As it is expected to generate more than five times solar energy as compared to a conventional solar panel, customers using this technology can offset their consumption, thus leading to a lower utilities bill. 2) Cloud Nine Project Brief This project uses the collection of rainwater at the top of high-rise buildings to harvest gravitational potential energy as it falls from the top of the building to the ground. This is especially relevant in Singapore with a large population of tall buildings. By retrofitting these buildings with the team’s proposed mechanism – channelling the rainwater collected on rooftops down the buildings – it will generate energy through the process for storage and subsequent usage. Benefits to customers It uses the energy generated by falling rainwater as an alternate source of renewable energy generation besides solar and wind. It is suitable for countries that face land constraint like Singapore. The use of gravitational force and turbine increases the efficiency to harvest usable energy that can power up a 12-Watt LED light bulb for 21,150 hours. This could potentially translate into cost savings to residents, building management and Town Councils, possibly resulting in lower maintenance fee in the long-term. *** Annex 1 (cont’d) 3) Savez Project Brief Savez’s product is solar cell that mimics photosynthesis for organic, highly sustainable, and versatile energy use. Benefits to customers This product is sustainable, scalable and organic. It is also cost-efficient to produce. *** 4) GreenLoco Project Brief This idea is to use human movement to self-generate electricity. It focuses on crowdsourcing energy, merging piezoelectric technology, wireless power transmission as well as Singapore’s high population density. Benefits to customers This product allows customers to self-generate electricity and raise awareness of energy issues, allowing Singaporeans to contribute to the main grid. *** 5) RoadX Project Brief RoadX is a power generation and transmission solution for Singapore’s roadways. It combines the use of solar panelled, piezo-electric charging roads and roadside wind turbines with dynamic wireless charging through induction for electric vehicles. The plan to vary the usage of each component to suit local traffic conditions of roads. Benefits to customers RoadX aims to help customers reduce carbon emission and fossil fuel dependency. It also seeks to maximise Singapore’s limited land for green energy generation and encourage the uptake of electric vehicles in Singapore.

Designed and built completely in-house, SunSPEC 5 resembles a futuristic saloon car – albeit one powered by solar cells and batteries. In contrast to the polytechnic’s previous solar models, SunSPEC 5 is designed to perform similarly to a standard commercial car in terms of speed, seating capacity, and range. Incorporating leading-edge technology throughout its engineering, many of the car’s features out-perform commercial variants. For example, SunSPEC 5 weighs a mere 330kg (unladen) – a quarter of an average 1.6-litre car. SunSPEC 5’s drag coefficient of 0.13 is more than 2.5 times more efficient than an average passenger car. SunSPEC 5 uses ultra-low rolling resistance tires which are 6 times more efficient than regular car tires. The car is Singapore Polytechnic’s most technologically advanced and highest performing model to date. This year, SunSPEC 5 will feature new innovative green technologies, including being fitted with ultra-high efficiency silicon solar cells which are more efficient than those used in 2015. The flexible solar panel encapsulation has very low loss and allows the car to absorb indirect sunlight, thereby maintaining cell efficiency. The flexible solar panel is also able to conform

The pioneer cohort of 19 energy sector professionals was recognised in a ceremony during Singapore International Energy Week 2018, witnessed by Dr Tan Wu Meng, Senior Parliamentary Secretary, Ministry of Trade and Industry and Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The programme, which is under the SkillsFuture Leadership Development Initiative, is designed to build a pipeline of strong leaders for the energy sector as they address issues and opportunities in today’s transforming and disruptive landscape. Building on its inaugural run, SIPG is opening its programme to participants from ASEAN utilities and other international companies in the energy value chain, curating a broader range of experiences, perspectives and real-world applications. Mr Peter Leong, Principal of SIPG, said, “We customised this programme to help energy industry managers hone their well-rounded leadership skills through blended learning in the classroom and field trips to companies in Singapore and overseas. They have personally benefitted from networking with peers from across the value chain. They have also gleaned insights on driving advancement and innovation amidst the rapid industry disruption, in order to serve all consumers better.” Spanning five months from February this year, the programme’s first participants were emerging leaders from generation companies and SP Group. Through workshops, dialogues with senior leaders from the energy sector and government, as well as a learning trip to China, the participants were exposed to pertinent challenges the industry faces, in Singapore and around the region. They also gained valuable insights from individual coaching sessions and working on action projects. Mr Neo Bing Hui, Senior Operations Engineer, YTL PowerSeraya Ltd, said, “The Energy Managers Programme (EMP) has helped broaden my views of the industry in general, providing a different perspective of how challenges can be viewed in the energy sector. After going through EMP, I have gleaned more insights on my leadership style and how I can effectively improve communication with my team mates. I am excited to start applying what I've learnt from this programme.” The pressing need to inspire the energy sector to groom the next generation of energy leaders is why the Energy Market Authority is supporting the programme. Its Chief Executive, Mr Ngiam Shih Chun, said: “For the energy sector to embrace new opportunities and challenges, there is a need to engage and develop tomorrow's energy leaders. They will need to be agile and adopt a growth mindset to lead their organisations forward. EMA supports SIPG in playing a crucial role in providing a programme to grow our future energy leaders.” Nurturing engineering talent In developing future engineering talent, SP Group also awarded two Energy-Industry Scholarships to students from institutions of higher learning – Ms Choo Wei Ming, 19, from Ngee Ann Polytechnic and Mr Muhammad Syahiran bin Jamal, 20, from Singapore Polytechnic. SP Group’s Chief Human Resource Officer, Mr Ng Seng Huwi, presented the scholarships to Wei Ming and Muhammad Syahiran, at a ceremony during the Youth@SIEW event earlier today. The scholarship serves to nurture talent for the energy sector and support students with a passion for engineering in achieving academic and career aspirations.

Reliabilityhttps://www.spgroup.com.sg/about-us/media-resources/energy-hub/reliability/safeguarding-the-backbone-of-singapores-grid SP Energy HubAnnual ReportReliabilitySustainabilityInnovation Safeguarding the Backbone of Singapore’s Grid RELIABILITY The transmission substations that Kane Neo oversees are key to keeping Singapore powered Kane Neo and his team protect a part of the power world that is invisible to most – the high voltage transmission networks. These networks form the backbone of Singapore’s electricity infrastructure, connecting power from the power generation plant to the distribution networks that connect it to our customers. “Power that runs through transmission networks can be massive – ranging from 66kV to 400kV. When running at full capacity, one 230kV transmission substation can power up to eight towns, each the size of Toa Payoh,” explains the 47-year-old, General Manager of SP’s power grid business.  He first discovered his passion for power engineering when studying at Ngee Ann Polytechnic. Power is generated at very high voltage, travelling through these networks before being progressively “stepped down” at the transmission substations. Through various distribution substations, power is sent via smaller cables of the network to homes and offices. “The work we do is highly sensitive and teamwork is important. Any issue on the transmission network can cause a huge impact,” he adds. A transmission substation, which feeds into many distribution substations, can affect several estates if it faces disruption, he says.   At SP, the path to become a transmission engineer spans about four years of on-the-job training and structured courses. Regular health checks on transmission assets such as cables, switchgears and transformers form a critical part of the job for Kane and his team of over 160. The size, importance and complexity of the equipment do not make this easy. For instance, Kane’s team keeps a close watch on transmission cables, which run for approximately 2,600km, and some 3,000 transmission assets island-wide. Any anomalies that may impact transmission assets, are detected early using data from sensors and rectified. Stringent checks include tests on the quality of gas that insulates the high voltage equipment. “If we detect a problem, it needs to be solved in the shortest amount of time, and we persist until we get to the bottom of it,” says Kane, who has been with SP since 2000 and spent the last three years in his current role. He also has a decade of experience working on the distribution network. For Kane and his team, it means constantly being on the alert, pre-empting possible issues and finding ways to make the network more robust. Kane (second from left) with his family (from left) Le Wei, Julie and Le Xuan. While few understand the scale and significance of the transmission network, or the invisible heroes that keep it going, his 12- and 13-year-old daughters do. Le Wei and Le Xuan, are able to spot the various transmission substations when they go out on drives as a family. “As they enjoy modern conveniences, they are also more keenly aware of what it takes to power their lives and the nation daily,” he says. — 17 October 2019 TAGS PEOPLE OF SPRELIABILITY YOU MIGHT BE INTERESTED TO READ Engineer, 27, shares how she is undaunted by male-dominated energy industry & climbs the ranks Lighting the way: Following in his father’s footsteps to keep S’pore’s power grid running 24/7 How this technical officer and robot SPock hunt hazards to protect Singapore’s power tunnels Category: Reliability Strides and SP Group to Launch Electrification-As-A-Service (EaaS) for EV Customershttps://www.spgroup.com.sg/about-us/media-resources/news-and-media-releases/Strides-and-SP-Group-to-Launch-Electrification-As-A-Service--EaaS--for-EV-Customers News Release Strides and SP Group to Launch Electrification-As-A-Service (EaaS) for EV Customers Singapore, 28 May 2021 – SP Group (SP) and Strides Transportation (Strides) have signed an agreement to launch Electrification-as-a-Service (EaaS) as a new offering to Strides’ drivers and fleet customers.

First batch of 30 charging points to be in operation later this year Singapore, 19 June 2018 – In a boost for electric vehicle adoption in Singapore, SP Group (SP) has announced plans to launch Singapore’s largest public electric vehicle charging network, with 500 charging points nation-wide by 2020. EV users can conveniently access the charging points at locations such as shopping malls, residential areas, business parks and industrial sites. The first batch of 30 charging points will be in operation by end 2018. SP also announced the launch of two tenders for the electric vehicle charging network. The tenders are for the procurement of charging hardware for both AC (alternating current) and DC (direct current) chargers, and for the installation of the chargers. Singapore is regarded as an ideal environment for EVs as it is highly urbanised and compact. This pervasive charging network will plug a critical gap in scaling up EV adoption in Singapore by reducing range anxiety in EV drivers. To ensure that the charging network is accessible and convenient for public usage, SP is developing a mobile app that will allow EV users to make payment electronically and receive real-time information such as the location and availability of charging points, and automated updates on charging duration. “SP Group is committed to delivering a high-quality, sustainable lifestyle for our customers. Our nation-wide electric vehicle charging network will encourage greater adoption of green mobility, and support Singapore’s sustainability goals,” said Mr Wong Kim Yin, Group Chief Executive Officer of SP Group. The island-wide network will be fully compliant with Singapore’s national charging standards and comprise both AC and DC chargers, with power ratings ranging from 22kW to 50kW. Of the 500 charging points, more than 100 will be 50kW-DC charging points, a fast charge technology that can fully charge an EV in as little as 30 minutes. This network will significantly boost the number of DC chargers in Singapore which has fewer than five DC chargers today. Compared to vehicles with an internal combustion engine (ICE), EVs offer lower operating costs in terms of energy and maintenance, and a cleaner ride with zero tailpipe emissions. Each EV is able to about halve the carbon emissions from a comparable ICE car after factoring in Singapore’s power generation profile, thereby contributing to Singapore’s climate change mitigation commitments. The quieter EVs also contribute to reducing noise pollution. SP Group’s electric vehicle journey commenced back in 2016, when it started to convert its entire vehicle fleet to electric vehicles. This involved the development of capabilities to operate an internal charging network that will now be scaled up for the roll out of a nation-wide public charging network in Singapore. Parties interested to have SP install chargers at their premises can contact SP Group at emobility@spgroup.com.sg. About SP Group SP Group is a leading energy utilities group in the Asia Pacific.

Singapore’s First Centralised Power Plant Simulator & Structured Genco Training Programmehttps://www.spgroup.com.sg/about-us/media-resources/news-and-media-releases/Singapore-s-First-Centralised-Power-Plant-Simulator---Structured-Genco-Training-Programme Media Release Singapore’s First Centralised Power Plant Simulator & Structured Genco Training Programme 1. Workforce training on operations for Singapore’s power generation companies (Gencos) will now be centralised and standardised with the launch of Singapore’s first Centralised Power Plant Simulator (CPPS). 2. Developed by the Singapore Institute of Power and Gas (SIPG) – the Centralised Training Institute for Power and Gas sectors – in partnership with the Energy Market Authority (EMA) and Gencos, the CPPS courses mark the first time that Gencos operating in a competitive environment have come together to collectively design and level training standards for the sector. This ensures a consistent level of training, which plays a critical role in ensuring a secure and stable supply of electricity for Singapore. 3. Six courses integrated with CPPS training have been co-developed by SIPG and Gencos comprising Keppel Merlimau Cogen O&M, PacificLight Power, Sembcorp Cogen, Senoko Energy, Tuas Power and YTL PowerSeraya. Spanning basic to advanced levels, the training programme establishes a consistent standard for skills training, such as in power plant operations, process controls, and management of common equipment alarms and malfunctions in a controlled environment separate from actual day-to-day plant operations, ensuring the safety of participants as well as plant and system reliability. 4. 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.” [Form] Application for Decommissioning of PV Systemhttps://www.spgroup.com.sg/dam/jcr:a9e51fda-738f-4cab-8fbe-042dd326ccd5/Application%20for%20Decommissioning%20of%20PV%20System.pdf GRID-TIED PHOTOVOLTAIC (PV) SYSTEM: APPLICATION FOR DECOMMISSIONING OF PV SYSTEM IN THE PREMISES To: SP PowerGrid Ltd 2 Kallang Sector Singapore 349277 For official use only Application No. Date Received PART I : APPLICANT’S DETAILS I hereby acknowledge the application to decommission the entire PV system in my premises as given in Part II by my Licensed Electrical Worker responsible for the PV system, including closing of associated PV account (if applicable).

Page 5 of 5 Last updated on 30 October 2019 Singapore Polytechnic Students Rebuild Solar Car After Setback, Supported By Singapore Powerhttps://www.spgroup.com.sg/about-us/media-resources/news-and-media-releases/Singapore-Polytechnic-Students-Rebuild-Solar-Car-After-Setback--Supported-By-Singapore-Power News Release Singapore Polytechnic Students Rebuild Solar Car After Setback, Supported By Singapore Power   Singapore, 29 September 2015 – Just three weeks from departure for a prestigious international race, Singapore Polytechnic students’ chances of competing were crushed when their self-built solar car, SunSPEC4 was destroyed. Undaunted, the Singapore Polytechnic team rose to the challenge to rebuild the car, with strong support from sponsor Singapore Power. The team of 52 students and lecturers worked nights and weekends to rebuild a new vehicle in four weeks, compared to eight months for the original car. With additional funding and logistical support from Singapore Power, the team acquired and assembled parts under a highly-compressed schedule. Airfreight saved two weeks, compared to marine freight. Singapore Power alumni – all alumni of Singapore Polytechnic – also provided additional support. The polytechnic’s team is the only Singapore contender in what is considered the toughest solar car race in the world. The team will travel 3,000km from Darwin to Adelaide in six days, using only solar energy. Singapore Power is the sponsor of this initiative, through a five-year $1 million-partnership. The wide-ranging agreement will enable the Singapore Polytechnic team to compete at the biennial World Solar Challenge in 2015, 2017 and 2019. Mr Steven Chew, Team Manager and Senior Lecturer at the polytechnic’s School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, said, “The students had worked so hard to create the solar car. Just when we were ready to unveil it and pit it against the world’s best at the World Solar Challenge, the setback took everything away. We were devastated to see 20 months of hard work totally destroyed in front of us. But we received strong encouragement from our Board and management, and the students responded by committing to rebuild the car to stay in the Challenge. This became possible when Singapore Power stepped up their sponsorship, including airfreighting the car, which shaved two weeks from the schedule.” Mr Lee Kok Kin, Singapore Power’s Head of Group Risk Management and alumni of the polytechnic, said “Singapore Power stepped up our support so that the entire production can be expedited, especially with supply of materials. We also helped to secure space for road testing. My colleagues and I, all alumni, joined the team to help where we are needed. We want to see our juniors bounce back from this setback, and are committed to supporting them with funding, time and all resources necessary.” Singapore Power Group CEO Mr Wong Kim Yin said, “It is important that we support the students to help them overcome the setback. Against all odds, they have committed themselves to stay in the World Solar Challenge. We must nurture this resilient, “never-say-die” spirit in our younger generation. Singapore can be proud of our SunSPEC team as they hold our flag high in Australia!” Besides being Singapore’s sole entry, SunSPEC4 is the only team from a polytechnic, competing alongside leading global universities such as Stanford University, Cambridge University, and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The team is in the advanced Cruiser Class category of the competition which encourages the cars to be designed for practicality and acceptance in today’s market segment.

Participants in the Cruiser Class race some 3,000km across the breadth of Australia from Darwin to Adelaide, without a single drop of fuel and with only one mid-point charging station. Vehicles operate on actual roads, at road speeds. Singapore Polytechnic is participating in the World Solar Challenge for the third time, with SunSPEC4 as its first entrant in the Cruiser Class. About the partnership between Singapore Power and Singapore Polytechnic Singapore Power and Singapore Polytechnic announced a SGD $1 million, five-year partnership which will see the two organisations collaborate to participate at the next three editions of the World Solar Challenge in 2015, 2017 and 2019. As part of the partnership, Singapore Power will contribute building materials, subject-matter expertise, logistics and public education. Singapore Power’s key objectives for this partnership are: To nurture and develop the next generation of engineers and talents Sustainability – To develop energy efficiency initiatives in caring for the environment Innovation – To promote renewables and innovation in technology developments, such as Solar Powered devices Project Overview About the Team   Size:  43 students, nine lecturers and three Singapore Power engineers Background : Multi-disciplinary team representing expertise from the schools of Electrical & Electronic Engineering; Mechanical & Aeronautical Engineering; and Digital Media & Infocomm Technology The team designed and built the original SunSpec4 over a 20-month period – from December 2013. Following a fire on 25 August 2015, the team subsequently rebuilt a new SunSPEC4 from scratch in just four weeks. Singapore Power stepped up its sponsorship to help the team stay in the race. The new SunSPEC4 was also rebuilt with the additional safety measures: Reinforcements to strengthen solar car body Solar panels able to follow body contour for improved aerodynamics Improved battery system with compartmentalisation and usage of flame retardant materials Enhanced battery management system with external fuse protection for battery system Improved ventilation for driver and passenger Detailed handling checklists and procedures, covering e.g. mechanical, battery, and motor subsystems About SunSPEC4   SunSPEC4 is Singapore Polytechnic’s fourth solar car, and its first two-seater model. Designed and built completely in-house, SunSPEC4 resembles a futuristic saloon car – albeit one powered solely by solar cells. In contrast to the polytechnic’s previous solar models, SunSPEC4 is designed to perform similarly to a standard commercial car in terms of speed, seating capacity, and range. Incorporating leading-edge technology throughout its engineering, many of the car’s features out-perform commercial variants. For example, SunSPEC4 weights a mere 220kg – a fifth of an average 1.6 litre car, and uses thinner solar panels which are approximately 10 per cent more efficient than typical commercial versions. SunSPEC4’s drag coefficient of 0.13 is more than 50 per cent more efficient than an average passenger car. The car is Singapore Polytechnic’s most technologically advanced and highest performing model to date. SunSPEC4 will be Singapore’s sole representative at the World Solar Challenge; and the only team from a polytechnic, competing alongside leading global universities such as Stanford University, Cambridge University, and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. For the first time in Singapore Polytechnic’s participation at the World Solar Challenge, the team will be competing in the more advanced Cruiser Class. In this category, teams are encouraged to design their cars based on innovation, energy consumption, as well as practicality and acceptance from end-users. SunSPEC4 Key Specifications Dimensions: 4.5m (l) x1.8m (w) x 1.2m (h, max) Body: Full carbon fibre body Motor Drive System: 2-wheel drive, powered by two – 2 kilowatt high efficiency brushless DC motor Top Speed: 90 – 100 km/h Drag Coefficient: 0.13 Passenger Capacity: 1 driver and 1 passenger Power Supply: 122V 15 kW Li-ion battery pack – The car runs on less power than a household electric kettle Unladen Weight: 220kg  - About a fifth of the weight of an average 1.6litre family sedan Driving Range: A single charge provides a range of 500km – enough to drive a journey from Singapore to Malacca and back Media Release - Singapore Polytechnic Students Rebuild Solar Car After Setback, Supported By Singapore Powerhttps://www.spgroup.com.sg/dam/spgroup/wcm/connect/spgrp/7f993018-17d4-45a3-bf7d-f750fd3c267e/%5B20150929%5D+Media+Release+-+Singapore+Polytechnic+Students+Rebuild+Solar+Car+After+Setback,+Supported+By+Singapore+Power.pdf?MOD=AJPERES&CVID= 29 September 2015 News release For immediate release SINGAPORE POLYTECHNIC STUDENTS REBUILD SOLAR CAR AFTER SETBACK, SUPPORTED BY SINGAPORE POWER Singapore, 29 September 2015 – Just three weeks from departure for a prestigious international race, Singapore Polytechnic students’ chances of competing were crushed when their self-built solar car, SunSPEC4 was destroyed.

SP Group’s sponsorship of $1 million over 5 years for the team’s participation supports the students in developing innovative green technologies. Three SP Group staff, who are SunSPEC alumni, will also join this year’s team to contribute skills and experience, and serve as mentors to the current student cohort. The SunSPEC 5 edition follows the creation of its predecessor SunSPEC4 in 2015, also supported by SP Group, which beat challenging odds to participate in the race (see Annex 1). It is Singapore’s sole entry in the World Solar Challenge, considered one of the world’s toughest and most competitive solar car races, alongside leading global universities such as the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Stanford University. The SunSPEC team is competing in the advanced Cruiser Class category which focuses on sustainable transport solutions and will test the car’s practicality and responsiveness to real-world challenges. This year’s car represents another significant stride towards commercially viable applications of solar and energy storage technology. It has leapt forward with integrated dashboard telemetry, a commercial vehicle lighting system and improvements to safety and ride comfort such as sports seats and adjustable steering positions. Over the past two years, more than 60 students across various Singapore Polytechnic Engineering diploma courses have pushed their knowledge and skills to new heights by designing and building two solar cars to withstand the arduous road trip over 3,000km in the Australian outback from Darwin to Adelaide. Besides learning to integrate their different disciplines, such as electrical & electronic engineering, energy systems & management, mechatronics and robotics, the experience hones resilience, creativity and the ability to solve practical problems. $2 million SP Group education sponsorship for Singapore Polytechnic’s SunSPEC engineering students To help develop a core pool of engineers who are ready to drive solutions for a sustainable future, Singapore Polytechnic and SP Group inked a three-year Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), valued at $2 million. This includes the SunSPEC polytechnic and university sponsorships for students who are part of the solar car team. They will secure job placements before they graduate and undergo a customised training programme including theory and on-the-job exposure in critical areas such as electricity and gas planning and operations. Seow Jing Woon, a third-year student from the Diploma in Mechatronics & Robotics, who received the SunSPEC Polytechnic sponsorship, said, “The solar car project enabled me to work with industry mentors, hone my engineering skills, and produce innovative sustainable solutions for the future.” SP Group’s Head of Corporate Affairs, Ms Amelia Champion, who has journeyed with the solar car team since the start of the partnership in 2015, said, “The spirit of innovation, resilience and passion among the students is unwavering from one cohort to the next. They have outdone themselves in delivering the latest SunSPEC solar car, which has pushed the boundaries in engineering and green technology.” Please refer to Annexes for more details: 1) Annex 1: SunSPEC and World Solar Challenge 2) Annex 2: Factsheet on SunSPEC 5 3) Annex 3: Details on MOU between Singapore Polytechnic and SP Group 4) Annex 4: Key Terms in Chinese Follow the SunSPEC team’s journey on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/TeamSunSPEC.

Annex 1 SunSPEC 4 Rises From The Ashes It was a near-miracle that SunSPEC 5’s predecessor, SunSPEC 4, took to the roads at the 2015 World Solar Challenge. SunSPEC 4 was destroyed in a fire on 25 August 2015, just three weeks before it was scheduled to be shipped off to Darwin, Australia, for the race flag-off. Undaunted, the Singapore Polytechnic team of 52 students and lecturers worked through nights and weekends to rebuild a new vehicle in four weeks, compared to eight months for the original car. With additional funding and logistical support from SP Group, the team acquired and assembled parts under a highly-compressed schedule. Airfreight saved an extra two weeks, compared to marine freight. SP Group staff – all alumni of Singapore Polytechnic – also provided additional support and mentorship before and during the race in Australia. SP Group recognised the tenacity, determination and passion of the students towards this project and

Annex 1 SunSPEC 4 Rises From The Ashes It was a near-miracle that SunSPEC 5’s predecessor, SunSPEC 4, took to the roads at the 2015 World Solar Challenge. SunSPEC 4 was destroyed in a fire on 25 August 2015, just three weeks before it was scheduled to be shipped off to Darwin, Australia, for the race flag-off. Undaunted, the Singapore Polytechnic team of 52 students and lecturers worked through nights and weekends to rebuild a new vehicle in four weeks, compared to eight months for the original car. With additional funding and logistical support from SP Group, the team acquired and assembled parts under a highly-compressed schedule. Airfreight saved an extra two weeks, compared to marine freight. SP Group staff – all alumni of Singapore Polytechnic – also provided additional support and mentorship before and during the race in Australia. SP Group recognised the tenacity, determination and passion of the students towards this project and launched the SunSPEC Polytechnic & University Sponsorship scheme, specifically for Singapore Polytechnic students involved with SunSPEC4 and for two subsequent editions of the solar car. About the partnership between SP Group and Singapore Polytechnic SP Group and Singapore Polytechnic formalised a SGD $1 million, five-year partnership for the two organisations to collaborate in participating at the World Solar Challenge in 2015, 2017 and 2019. SP Group is contributing funding, manpower, subject-matter expertise, logistics and public education. Singapore Power’s key objectives for this partnership are: • Nurture and develop the next generation of engineering talent • Innovative sustainable solutions – develop energy-efficiency initiatives and promote the use of renewable and green technology such as solar powered applications and energy storage systems. About the World Solar Challenge The World Solar Challenge is considered one of the world’s toughest solar car challenges, and regularly sees leading global universities such as Cambridge University, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and Stanford University participating. The SunSPEC team is competing in the advanced Cruiser Class category which focuses on sustainable transport solutions and will test the car’s practicality and responsiveness to real-world challenges. Participants in this Class race undergo the arduous road trip over 3,000km in the Australian outback from Darwin to Adelaide, using mainly power from the sun, with minimal grid charging.

Annex 2 About the Team & SunSPEC 5 Size Background 35 students, 12 lecturers and 3 SP Group staff Multi-disciplinary team representing expertise from the schools of Electrical & Electronic Engineering; Mechanical & Aeronautical Engineering; Digital Media & Infocomm Technology and Communication, Arts & Social Sciences The team designed and built SunSPEC 5 over a 20-month period – from December 2015. SunSPEC 5 is Singapore Polytechnic’s fifth solar car, and its second two-seater model. Designed and built completely in-house, SunSPEC 5 resembles a futuristic saloon car – albeit one powered by solar cells and batteries. In contrast to the polytechnic’s previous solar models, SunSPEC 5 is designed to perform similarly to a standard commercial car in terms of speed, seating capacity, and range. Incorporating leading-edge technology throughout its engineering, many of the car’s features out-perform commercial variants. For example, SunSPEC 5 weighs a mere 330kg (unladen) – a quarter of an average 1.6-litre car. SunSPEC 5’s drag coefficient of 0.13 is more than 2.5 times more efficient than an average passenger car. SunSPEC 5 uses ultra-low rolling resistance tires which are 6 times more efficient than regular car tires. The car is Singapore Polytechnic’s most technologically advanced and highest performing model to date. This year, SunSPEC 5 will feature new innovative green technologies, including being fitted with ultra-high efficiency silicon solar cells which are more efficient than those used in 2015. The flexible solar panel encapsulation has very low loss and allows the car to absorb indirect sunlight, thereby maintaining cell efficiency. The flexible solar panel is also able to conform to the shape of car for better aerodynamics. SunSPEC 5 is equipped with very efficient Maximum Power Point Trackers to maximise solar array. It is installed with a custom-designed telemetry system to monitor the car’s parameters, allowing team to optimise vehicle performance. The car also features a cruise control mode, which reduces driver fatigue, minimises variation in speeds under manual control, and improves vehicle performance. SunSPEC 5 will be Singapore’s sole representative at the World Solar Challenge; and the only team from a polytechnic, competing alongside leading global universities such as Stanford University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. For the second time in Singapore Polytechnic’s participation at the World Solar Challenge, the team will be competing in the more advanced Cruiser Class. In this category, teams are encouraged to design their cars based on practicality and marketability for end-users, innovation and energy consumption.

Annex 1 Key Projects Featured 1) Scone Project Brief Scone aims to increase renewable energy generation in Singapore significantly using a solar cone. The solar cone is a hybrid that uses solar cone and solar-concentrating lenses to maximise energy absorption onto a solar cell. This cone promises to produce more than five times the energy than a conventional solar panel. It is essentially a higher efficiency concentrator photovoltaic that aims to harness more energy per unit area. Utilising solar technology, a heat exchanger and a cone structure, the cone generates both solar and thermal energy. There is intention to implement the solar cone at the rooftop of residential units as it allows excess heat to be converted to heated water for residential usage. This technology taps on expertise from district cooling. Benefits to customers As it is expected to generate more than five times solar energy as compared to a conventional solar panel, customers using this technology can offset their consumption, thus leading to a lower utilities bill. 2) Cloud Nine Project Brief This project uses the collection of rainwater at the top of high-rise buildings to harvest gravitational potential energy as it falls from the top of the building to the ground. This is especially relevant in Singapore with a large population of tall buildings. By retrofitting these buildings with the team’s proposed mechanism – channelling the rainwater collected on rooftops down the buildings – it will generate energy through the process for storage and subsequent usage. Benefits to customers It uses the energy generated by falling rainwater as an alternate source of renewable energy generation besides solar and wind. It is suitable for countries that face land constraint like Singapore. The use of gravitational force and turbine increases the efficiency to harvest usable energy that can power up a 12-Watt LED light bulb for 21,150 hours. This could potentially translate into cost savings to residents, building management and Town Councils, possibly resulting in lower maintenance fee in the long-term. *** Annex 1 (cont’d) 3) Savez Project Brief Savez’s product is solar cell that mimics photosynthesis for organic, highly sustainable, and versatile energy use. Benefits to customers This product is sustainable, scalable and organic. It is also cost-efficient to produce. *** 4) GreenLoco Project Brief This idea is to use human movement to self-generate electricity. It focuses on crowdsourcing energy, merging piezoelectric technology, wireless power transmission as well as Singapore’s high population density. Benefits to customers This product allows customers to self-generate electricity and raise awareness of energy issues, allowing Singaporeans to contribute to the main grid. *** 5) RoadX Project Brief RoadX is a power generation and transmission solution for Singapore’s roadways.

Media Release Singapore Polytechnic And SP Group Launch Next-Generation Solar Car For World Solar Challenge 2017 SP Group adds $2 million sponsorship to groom engineering talent Singapore, 21 July 2017 – Singapore Polytechnic and SP Group today unveiled their most advanced solar car, SunSPEC 5, designed and built by the polytechnic’s students to take part in the biennial World Solar Challenge 2017 in Australia this October. SP Group’s sponsorship of $1 million over 5 years for the team’s participation supports the students in developing innovative green technologies. Three SP Group staff, who are SunSPEC alumni, will also join this year’s team to contribute skills and experience, and serve as mentors to the current student cohort. The SunSPEC 5 edition follows the creation of its predecessor SunSPEC4 in 2015, also supported by SP Group, which beat challenging odds to participate in the race (see Annex 1). It is Singapore’s sole entry in the World Solar Challenge, considered one of the world’s toughest and most competitive solar car races, alongside leading global universities such as the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Stanford University. The SunSPEC team is competing in the advanced Cruiser Class category which focuses on sustainable transport solutions and will test the car’s practicality and responsiveness to real-world challenges. This year’s car represents another significant stride towards commercially viable applications of solar and energy storage technology. It has leapt forward with integrated dashboard telemetry, a commercial vehicle lighting system and improvements to safety and ride comfort such as sports seats and adjustable steering positions. Over the past two years, more than 60 students across various Singapore Polytechnic Engineering diploma courses have pushed their knowledge and skills to new heights by designing and building two solar cars to withstand the arduous road trip over 3,000km in the Australian outback from Darwin to Adelaide. Besides learning to integrate their different disciplines, such as electrical & electronic engineering, energy systems & management, mechatronics and robotics, the experience hones resilience, creativity and the ability to solve practical problems. $2 million SP Group education sponsorship for Singapore Polytechnic’s SunSPEC engineering students To help develop a core pool of engineers who are ready to drive solutions for a sustainable future, Singapore Polytechnic and SP Group inked a three-year Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), valued at $2 million. This includes the SunSPEC polytechnic and university sponsorships for students who are part of the solar car team. They will secure job placements before they graduate and undergo a customised training programme including theory and on-the-job exposure in critical areas such as electricity and gas planning and operations. Seow Jing Woon, a third-year student from the Diploma in Mechatronics & Robotics, who received the SunSPEC Polytechnic sponsorship, said, “The solar car project enabled me to work with industry mentors, hone my engineering skills, and produce innovative sustainable solutions for the future.” SP Group’s Head of Corporate Affairs, Ms Amelia Champion, who has journeyed with the solar car team since the start of the partnership in 2015, said, “The spirit of innovation, resilience and passion among the students is unwavering from one cohort to the next. They have outdone themselves in delivering the latest SunSPEC solar car, which has pushed the boundaries in engineering and green technology.” Please refer to Annexes for more details: Annex 1: SunSPEC and World Solar Challenge Annex 2: Factsheet on SunSPEC 5 Annex 3: Details on MOU between Singapore Polytechnic and SP Group Annex 4: Key Terms in Chinese Follow the SunSPEC team’s journey on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/TeamSunSPEC. The team designed and built SunSPEC 5 over a 20-month period – from December 2015. SunSPEC 5 is Singapore Polytechnic’s fifth solar car, and its second two-seater model. Designed and built completely in-house, SunSPEC 5 resembles a futuristic saloon car – albeit one powered by solar cells and batteries. In contrast to the polytechnic’s previous solar models, SunSPEC 5 is designed to perform similarly to a standard commercial car in terms of speed, seating capacity, and range. Incorporating leading-edge technology throughout its engineering, many of the car’s features out-perform commercial variants. For example, SunSPEC 5 weighs a mere 330kg (unladen) – a quarter of an average 1.6-litre car. SunSPEC 5’s drag coefficient of 0.13 is more than 2.5 times more efficient than an average passenger car. SunSPEC 5 uses ultra-low rolling resistance tires which are 6 times more efficient than regular car tires. The car is Singapore Polytechnic’s most technologically advanced and highest performing model to date. This year, SunSPEC 5 will feature new innovative green technologies, including being fitted with ultra-high efficiency silicon solar cells which are more efficient than those used in 2015. The flexible solar panel encapsulation has very low loss and allows the car to absorb indirect sunlight, thereby maintaining cell efficiency. The flexible solar panel is also able to conform to the shape of car for better aerodynamics. SunSPEC 5 is equipped with very efficient Maximum Power Point Trackers to maximise solar array. It is installed with a custom-designed telemetry system to monitor the car’s parameters, allowing team to optimise vehicle performance. The car also features a cruise control mode, which reduces driver fatigue, minimises variation in speeds under manual control, and improves vehicle performance. SunSPEC 5 will be Singapore’s sole representative at the World Solar Challenge; and the only team from a polytechnic, competing alongside leading global universities such as Stanford University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. For the second time in Singapore Polytechnic’s participation at the World Solar Challenge, the team will be competing in the more advanced Cruiser Class. In this category, teams are encouraged to design their cars based on practicality and marketability for end-users, innovation and energy consumption.
