Singapore launches M&OE plan to lead Asia-Pacific offshore renewables

Objective includes contributing to 50GW of offshore renewable energy projects globally.

Minister Tan See Leng announced the launching of The Marine & Offshore Energy Industry Plan to position Singapore as the Asia-Pacific hub for offshore renewables and maritime decarbonisation.

The plan is crucial for the industry to remain relevant amidst the global energy transition and seize growth opportunities in sustainable energy.

Key objectives have been set for 2030, including contributing to 50GW of offshore renewable energy projects globally and achieving 250 kilotonnes of annual carbon emission reductions through new builds and decarbonisation solutions.

Additionally, the plan focuses on enhancing the local workforce by creating and redesigning 1,000 jobs in offshore renewables, sustainability, digitalisation, and advanced manufacturing, whilst targeting a 5% annual productivity growth.

To achieve these ambitious targets, the plan outlines a three-pronged strategy. First, companies are encouraged to diversify into green opportunities through international partnerships such as those with the Global Wind Energy Council and EnterpriseSG.

Second, businesses are urged to scale internationally and build a strong “Made in Singapore” identity by participating in global trade shows and business missions.

Lastly, the plan emphasises transformation through digitalisation, sustainability, and workforce development, supported by ASMI and Workforce Singapore.

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.
