34-minute blackout hits Singapore CBD

Around 3,156 customers were affected.

Singapore's central business district (CBD) was surprised by a power outage that lasted for 34 minutes Friday afternoon.

SP Group said that the electricity supply to parts of Raffles Quay, Robinson Road, and Shenton Way was disrupted at about 2:41 p.m. today. An estimated 3,156 customers were affected.

Electricity supply was then progressively restored via remote switching. Supply was fully restored within 34 minutes, by 3:15 p.m. today.

"Our officers were immediately deployed to the affected areas and our priority was to restore supply as safely and quickly as possible," SP Group said.

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.
