Amount of energy NUHS saved in 2023 enough to power 14,000 four-room flats for a year
Efforts by the National University Health System to cut energy use last year saved enough electricity to power almost 14,000 four-room HDB flats for a year. NUHS said the carbon footprint it reduced is akin to planting more than 360,000 tree seedlings for 10 years. The group revealed this at the inaugural Healthcare Sustainability Symposium, where it also showcased its sustainability efforts. NUHS said it has already invested S$10 million into sustainability efforts across its four hospitals and seven polyclinics.
