Singapore to update solar roadmap to meet 4GWp target by 2035

SINGAPORE, Oct 27 — Singapore will update its Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Roadmap to support its new target of deploying 4 gigawatt-peak (GWp) of solar capacity by 2035, the Energy Market Authority (EMA) said.

EMA said it would collaborate with the Solar Energy Research Institute of Singapore (SERIS) to refresh the roadmap, which was last updated in 2020.

“The refreshed roadmap will assess solar deployment opportunities across diverse types of surfaces and help chart the pathways towards maximising solar deployment over the medium to long term, in support of Singapore’s higher solar ambition,” it said in a statement on Tuesday.

EMA is also taking steps to encourage greater solar adoption for private residential landed properties to unlock more opportunities for solar deployment.

The authority inked a memorandum of understanding with the Sustainable Energy Association of Singapore (SEAS) to explore the development of a one-stop digital portal to make it easier for homeowners to adopt solar.

It will also embark on a research collaboration with the Energy Research Institute @ NTU to study and map the capacity of local electricity networks.

Meanwhile, EMA has awarded grants totalling S$14.9 million (RM47.68 milliona) to four industry projects that will develop and test practical solutions across four areas to strengthen the resilience of Singapore’s electricity grid.

EMA said the projects would improve the maintenance and operation of grid infrastructure, manage the impact of growing distributed energy resources, provide new forms of support for system stability and enable distributed resources to contribute more actively to grid operations. — Bernama

新加坡，10 月 27 日——新加坡能源市场管理局 (EMA) 表示，新加坡将更新其太阳能光伏 (PV) 路线图，以支持其到 2035 年部署 4 吉瓦峰值 (GWp) 太阳能发电容量的新目标。

EMA表示将与新加坡太阳能研究所（SERIS）合作更新路线图，该路线图上次更新是在2020年。

“更新后的路线图将评估各种类型表面上的太阳能部署机会，并有助于规划在中长期内最大限度地部署太阳能的路径，以支持新加坡更高的太阳能目标，”该机构周二在一份声明中表示。

EMA 也在采取措施，鼓励私人住宅用地更多地采用太阳能，以释放更多太阳能部署的机会。

该机构与新加坡可持续能源协会 (SEAS) 签署了一份谅解备忘录，探讨开发一站式数字门户，以便让房主更容易采用太阳能。

它还将与南洋理工大学能源研究所开展研究合作，以研究和绘制当地电网的容量图。

与此同时，EMA 已向四个行业项目授予总计 1490 万新元（4768 万令吉）的拨款，这些项目将在四个领域开发和测试切实可行的解决方案，以增强新加坡电网的韧性。

EMA表示，这些项目将改善电网基础设施的维护和运行，应对日益增长的分布式能源资源的影响，为系统稳定性提供新的支持形式，并使分布式资源能够更积极地参与电网运行。——马新社
