Singapore is set to build a new hydrogen-ready Combined Cycle Gas Turbine generating unit by 2029, according to the Energy Market Authority (EMA). The EMA, under the Ministry of Trade and Industry, highlighted the necessity of ensuring adequate generation to meet the growing energy demand in the city-state. The new generating unit, to be developed by PacificLight Power, a local electricity retailer, will have a capacity of at least 600 megawatts and will be constructed on Jurong Island in southwestern Singapore. It is designed to start operating with 30 percent hydrogen and has plans to eventually transition to burning 100 percent hydrogen. This move aligns with Singapore's commitment to a low-carbon energy future. The city-state's energy needs have been steadily increasing due to sectors like advanced manufacturing, the digital economy, and transportation electrification. The power system peak demand is projected to rise substantially in the coming years. PacificLight Power was selected by the EMA from six proposals to undertake this hydrogen-ready generating unit project, aiming to address the escalating energy requirements in Singapore and contribute to a more sustainable energy landscape.
