Sembcorp bags Pandan Reservoir floating solar project

This is the company’s third floating solar project in Singapore.

Sembcorp Industries, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Sembcorp Solar Singapore, is set to build an 86 megawatt-peak (MWp) floating solar photovoltaic system on Pandan Reservoir.

In a statement, the company said it was named the winning bidder by PUB, Singapore’s National Water Agency. This marks Sembcorp’s third floating solar project in the city-state.

In 2021, Sembcorp completed Singapore’s first large-scale inland floating solar farm at Tengeh Reservoir, a 60 MWp project that stood amongst the world’s largest single floating solar projects at that time.

Sembcorp also signed a 25-year renewable energy purchase agreement with Malkoha Pte Ltd, a subsidiary of Meta Platforms, Inc., to build, own and operate a 150 MWp floating solar farm on Kranji Reservoir. This project marks the largest floating solar project in Singapore.

So far, the company has over 1 gigawatt-peak of solar capacity and over 300 megawatt-hours of energy storage in its Singapore portfolio. Globally, Sembcorp’s renewable energy capacity stands at 18.9 gigawatts.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
