Singapore’s 1st hydrogen-ready cogeneration plant breaks ground

The Keppel Sakra Cogen Plant has a 600 megawatts capacity.

The 600-megawatt (MW) Keppel Sakra Cogen Plant (KSC Plant), the first hydrogen-ready cogeneration plant, has broken ground and is expected to be completed in the first half of 2026.

In a joint statement, developers Keppel, Mitsubishi Power Asia Pacific and Jurong Engineering consortium said the facility is an advanced combined cycle gas turbine power plant.

The project can co-fire with 30% hydrogen content and shift to run on hydrogen entirely, in line with Singapore’s decarbonisation efforts as the country aims to achieve net zero emissions by 2050.

KSC Plant can save up to 220,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide annually, equivalent to taking around 47,000 cars off the road each year.

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.
