Singapore’s new Western island offers real opportunity to create ‘next-generation energy hub’: analysts
Its proximity to Jurong Island, the Republic’s petrochemicals hub, also provides synergies
Singapore's new Western island, created by merging Semakau, Bukom, and Pulau Sudong, holds promise as a site for next-generation clean-power solutions, according to industry analysts. This island's location near Jurong Island, the Republic's petrochemicals hub, creates synergies that could benefit the development of green hydrogen or advanced nuclear energy.
Semakau, currently a landfill site, Bukom, home to the first refinery, and Pulau Sudong, which houses an airstrip for the Singapore Armed Forces, are set to be part of this new energy hub.
