Singapore - Masdar joins Tuas in 1.2GW

Renewable energy company Masdar has joined a consortium comprising Singapore’s Tuas Power, France’s EDF Renewables and Indonesia Power to jointly develop renewable energy within Indonesia that will be exported to Singapore. The partners have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to develop solar photovoltaic (PV) facilities with a capacity of as much as 1.2GW and potential associated storage. Singapore has a green plan to import 4GW of low carbon energy by 2035, and its Energy Market Authority (EMA) issued a request for proposals (RFP) last October for the supply and import of clean energy of up to 1.2GW into Singapore.
