A Pulau Tekong site 40% the size of Sentosa could become an energy hub, EMA to study feasibility
The 200ha site could house hydrogen-ready natural gas-fired power plants, a liquefied natural gas terminal and other low-carbon energy technologies.
A 200-hectare site on Pulau Tekong, roughly the size of Toa Payoh, is being investigated by the Energy Market Authority (EMA) for potential energy infrastructure development. This could include hydrogen-ready natural gas-fired power plants, liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminals, and other low-carbon technologies. The feasibility study will be conducted by a consultant appointed by mid-2027, with the entire study estimated to take around two years.
Prime Minister Lawrence Wong announced in August that about 500 hectares on Pulau Tekong would remain available for future civilian uses, leaving room for this energy cluster. The cluster would bolster Singapore's energy security and transition towards clean energy, as the island's electricity demand is projected to grow significantly in the coming decades.
