SATS and Sembcorp ink sustainable energy deal

Sembcorp will install and operate solar panels in several SATS premises.

Food solutions firm SATS has partnered with Sembcorp Industries to implement solar energy systems for its operations, according to a press release.

Under a memorandum of understanding, Sembcorp will install and operate rooftop solar panels with a combined capacity of approximately 7.8 megawatts atop SATS Airfreight Terminals 1 to 4, inflight catering centres and on the SATS Maintenance Workshop.

Both companies will use co-generation solar panels capable of harvesting both sunlight and heat for electricity and hot water. If successful, this technology will be expanded to all future SATS premises.

Through this project, SATS hopes to achieve 12.4% use of renewable energy, reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 4.1m kilogrammes per year and 80% of its carbon footprint by 2030.

SATS and Sembcorp are also looking at regasifying liquefied natural gas (LNG) to power boilers in the former’s Changi inflight catering centres. In addition, Sembcorp will also provide water waste treatment systems.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
