Committee of Supply 2022 debate, Day 4: Poh Li San on more sustainable water efficiency and treatment
How will the Government leverage R&D and technology to enhance water efficiency and treatment, in view of global energy challenges and the country’s commitment to transit to greener energy sources? MP Poh Li San raised this question in Parliament on Monday (Mar 7). She noted that desalinated water and NEWater, which meet up to 70 per cent of Singapore’s water demand, are energy-intensive. Ms Poh sought updates on the progress of research projects in the field and asked if there is any collaboration with foreign partners.
