Singapore’s Pathway to Carbon Neutrality: Analysis of New Technologies
Information
General
Description
Singapore aims to reduce its carbon footprint. The Energy Market Authority (EMA) defined four switches to transform Singapore's energy supply: solar power, natural gas, low-carbon alternatives and regional power grids.
In this new project, we tap on the latter two.
On the supply side, we are looking into electricity import from neighbouring and further distant countries such as Australia, as well as production and import of energy carriers such as hydrogen and synthetic fuels.
A projection of the energy demand in the final energy sector (including marine port and airport) based on economic, demographic and sectorial development is also being carried out.
Eventually, we will propose solutions to maintain Singapore's role as a world leading hub, transitioning from oil to hydrogen and synthetic fuels.
Outcomes
- Demand projections in the final energy sector for Singapore and ASEAN
- Improvement of carbon capture processes in combined-cycle gas-fired power stations
- Techno-economic analysis of blue hydrogen production
- New simulation models for hydrogen liquefaction
- Potential of liquid air energy storage in the context of hydrogen economy
- ASEAN energy system models with high-detail information on renewable energies
- Electricity import options for Singapore under various CO2 price scenarios
- Recommendations for Singapore as a hub for “green fuels”
- Techno-economic comparison of electricity and fuel imports to Singapore
