EMA, Keppel O&M calls for power solutions for offshore and marine

Shortlisted participants can testbed their solutions in Keppel’s floating living lab.

The Energy Market Authority (EMA) and Keppel Offshore & Marine (Keppel O&M) are launching a grant call for solutions relating to energy storage systems and smart power grids for the offshore and marine environment as part of their $10m partnership, a press release revealed.

Open to companies, research institutes and institutes of higher learning, the grant call is looking for solutions that will reduce overall energy usage and carbon footprint whilst enhancing overall operational efficiency.

Shortlisted participants will be able to test their solutions through Keppel O&M’s Floating Living Lab (FLL). The lab is expected to be operational by end 2021, providing a platform to testbed and commercialise power and technology solutions for the marine sector.

The FLL will have Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) bunkering facilities for harbour crafts and small vessels. It will also house an embedded power generation system to power Keppel O&M’s operations, with excess electricity to be exported to the national grid.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
