Singapore and World Bank ink 3-year partnership targeting power trade gaps

The deal covers capacity building and knowledge sharing for members.

The Ministry of Energy, Trade and Industry, the Ministry of Finance (MOF), and the World Bank Group have launched a three-year ASEAN Power Grid Mobilisation Partnership (AMP) between Singapore and the World Bank.

The partnership will support cross-border electricity trade by strengthening regulatory, institutional and financing frameworks, including arrangements for cross-border wheeling, the groups said.

It will also promote regional cooperation, capacity building, and knowledge sharing amongst ASEAN member states.

Alvin Lim, MOF director-general, said the AMP will enable the region’s energy transition, address gaps in project implementation, and improve project bankability.

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.
