The government has not made any decision on deploying nuclear energy in Singapore and is studying the potential for nuclear energy deployment.

They will be collaborating with partners from other governments, as well as with industry and academia. The study focuses on helping Singapore understand the safety and availability of various advanced nuclear power plant technologies. Minister-in-charge of Energy and Science & Technology Tan See Leng said this in reply to MPs’ questions in parliament on Thursday (Nov 6).
