Sembcorp bags Pandan Reservoir floating solar project

This is the company’s third floating solar project in Singapore.

Sembcorp Industries, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Sembcorp Solar Singapore, is set to build an 86 megawatt-peak (MWp) floating solar photovoltaic system on Pandan Reservoir.

In a statement, the company said it was named the winning bidder by PUB, Singapore’s National Water Agency. This marks Sembcorp’s third floating solar project in the city-state.

In 2021, Sembcorp completed Singapore’s first large-scale inland floating solar farm at Tengeh Reservoir, a 60 MWp project that stood amongst the world’s largest single floating solar projects at that time.

Sembcorp also signed a 25-year renewable energy purchase agreement with Malkoha Pte Ltd, a subsidiary of Meta Platforms, Inc., to build, own and operate a 150 MWp floating solar farm on Kranji Reservoir. This project marks the largest floating solar project in Singapore.

So far, the company has over 1 gigawatt-peak of solar capacity and over 300 megawatt-hours of energy storage in its Singapore portfolio. Globally, Sembcorp’s renewable energy capacity stands at 18.9 gigawatts.

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.
