EMA extends temporary electricity contracts to May 2022

The disruption in piped energy supply persists.

The Singapore Energy Market Authority (EMA) will be extending the Temporary Electricity Contracting Support Scheme (TRECS) up to May 2022. The contracting window for March 2022 will open on 15 February.

Large consumers with an average monthly consumption of at least 4MWh who wish to obtain retail electricity contracts can approach Geneco, Keppel Electric, PacificLight Energy, Sembcorp Power, Senoko Energy Supply, and Tuas Power Supply.

EMA will continue to work with gencos and retailers to offer monthly contracts to large consumers unable to secure longer-term retail contracts. It is encouraging consumers to work with retailers to obtain contracts that best suit their needs.

In recent months, global gas prices have risen to record levels due to unanticipated demand for gas and reductions in global gas supply. In Singapore, this has been compounded by episodes of piped natural gas disruptions, leading to unprecedented volatility in the Singapore Wholesale Electricity Market.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
