Committee of Supply 2023 debate, Day 3: Mariam Jaafar on energy security and transition
Despite the challenges, Singapore is committed to drive energy efficiency and to decarbonise, but as 40 per cent of the country's overall emissions come from the power sector, decarbonising the power sector has to be an even more urgent priority. MP Mariam Jaafar highlighted this need to move fast in Parliament on Tuesday (Feb 28). One area is the placement of solar panels in many HDB blocks. She wanted to know how many solar panels are in operation today. She also asked for an update on Singapore's efforts to enhance its energy security and accelerate the energy transition. These include energy efficiency, solar and emerging low-carbon technologies, as well as renewable energy.
