As Singapore’s energy transition gains momentum, the clean energy workforce is expected to increase by 80% by 2032, reaching around 2,700 workers.
The power sector is also expected to expand by hiring 800 workers – reflecting a 13 per cent growth over the same period – with jobs in electricity transmission and distribution solutions, low-carbon alternatives, solar energy, and smart grids.
“The projected workforce growth thus augurs well for the job opportunities that will be available to Singapore residents,” said EMA in a statement. For instance, even as Singapore accelerates its solar deployment to reach at least 2-gigawatt peak by 2030, the Republic must also deal with the intermittency of solar, such as from cloud cover or urban shading, said Low.
Sembcorp deployed the first 285 megawatt-hour energy storage solution on Jurong Island in 2022 in just six months. This is the largest in South-east Asia to date and the fastest in the world of its size to be deployed, said Ms Low.
