One of the world’s first and largest sea water floating solar systems is set for completion later this year in Singapore.
From 10 September to 31 December, installation of a floating solar farm west of Senoko Fishery Port will take place.
The company behind the project is Sunseap Group, Southeast Asia’s leading sustainable energy provider.
Announced in 2018, the company is developing one of the world’s largest offshore floating photovoltaic systems to be located north of Woodlands Waterfront Park, along the Straits of Johor.
Supported by the Singapore Economic Development Board (EDB), the 5 MegaWatt-peak (MWp) floating solar system should generate about 6,388 MWh of renewable energy annually, once completed.
This is equivalent to powering about 1,250 4-room flats.
It could also reduce greenhouse gas emissions of about 2,600 tonnes every year, over the next 25 years and beyond.
