Floating Solar
Building Singapore’s first floating solar system
Sembcorp Solar is appointed by Singapore’s water agency PUB to build a 60 megawatt-peak (MWp) floating solar photovoltaic (PV) system on Tengeh Reservoir. When completed in 2021, it will be one of the world’s largest single floating solar PV systems.
Supporting the nation’s move towards the solar target of providing at least 2 gigawatt-peak (GWp) by 2030, this project will meet 7 percent of PUB’s total energy needs. We proposed the use of highly efficient PV modules and optimised layout to maximise energy generation within the specified area. At 60 MWp, the floating solar farm on Tengeh reservoir is expected to generate enough energy to power about 16,000 four-room HDB flats, and reduce around 32 kilotonnes carbon emissions annually – or the equivalent of taking 7,000 cars off our roads.
