SG commits to reduce carbon emissions to 50 million tonnes

Singapore will continue to work on the range of mitigation measures available.

Singapore has committed to reduce emissions to between 45-50 million tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent (MtCO2e) in 2035 as part of its 2035 Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC).

According to the government, 45 MtCO2e keeps the country on a linear path to its net zero target in 2050, in line with international expectations.

The range takes into consideration the reality that as an alternative-energy-disadvantaged island state, Singapore depends heavily on developments in nascent mitigation technologies and international collaboration.

Singapore will continue to work on the range of mitigation measures available and explore other mitigation options as it has the potential to grow the green economy, create jobs, and generate new opportunities in a low-carbon world.

Senior Minister and Coordinating Minister for National Security Teo Chee Hean, Chairman of the Inter-Ministerial Committee on Climate Change, will further elaborate on Singapore’s approach towards climate action and our 2035 NDC at the Committee of Supply Debate 2025.

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.
