Sunseap secures $43m green loan from UOB

It will fund 37MWp of solar PV installations at 210 sites.

The renewable energy firm, Sunseap, has secured a $43m green loan from United Overseas Bank (UOB) to boost the use of solar power in Singapore.

The green loan will be used to fund the installations of solar photovoltaic (PV) systems on the rooftops of 210 sites, from commercial and industrial to government premises. Collectively, the sites have a total solar capacity of 37 MW-peak that can supply enough energy to power more than 9,600 4-room housing development board (HDB) flats for one year.

Sunseap has previously worked with Sakae Holdings, a Singapore-based food and beverage company (F&B), to install solar PV systems. In the client’s headquarters in Tai Seng, the 270kWp solar energy system has 1,400 solar panels that can generate up to one-third of the building’s energy needs.

Established in 2018, the green loan, in an agreement with Sunseap Green Finance Framework, will tap various financing instruments to fund its projects and businesses with environmental benefits, mainly on the areas of renewable energy, energy efficiency and green roof systems.

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.
