EMA wants to explore Singapore’s geothermal energy potential

It has issued a Request for Information to facilitate the investigation project.

The Energy Market Authority (EMA) has announced plans to look into the geothermal energy potential of Singapore.

To facilitate the geophysical investigation project, the EMA has issued a Request for Information (RFI) to assess geothermal energy across the country.

“The planned geophysical investigation project will complement ongoing exploratory studies in the northern and eastern parts of Singapore, in providing a more comprehensive assessment of the geothermal potential across the whole of Singapore and suitable deployment locations,” the EMA reported.

Following the RFI, the EMA will begin developing and launching the Request for Proposal, in order to assess the viability and scalability of deploying geothermal systems in Singapore.

According to the EMA, geothermal energy serves as Singapore’s fourth “switch” under its energy transition.

The other three involved solar energy, developing regional power grids for the import of low carbon electricity and using natural gas as transitional fuel.

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.
