PSA Singapore Joins Partners in Exploring Hydrogen as a Low-Carbon Alternative

On 30 March 2020, PSA Singapore, along with support from Singapore’s National Research Foundation (NRF) and Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore (MPA), embarked on a joint initiative with Jurong Port Pte Ltd, City Gas Pte Ltd, Sembcorp Industries Ltd, Singapore LNG Corporation Pte Ltd, Chiyoda Corporation (Chiyoda) and Mitsubishi Corporation (Mitsubishi) to pioneer ways in utilising hydrogen as a viable low-carbon green energy source in Singapore. A Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) was signed in a videoconference held between the seven representative parties at various locations across Singapore and in Japan.

Regional CEO Southeast Asia Ong Kim Pong said, “We are delighted to underline PSA’s commitment to green initiatives with the signing of this MOU. Lowering carbon emissions to reduce the impact of climate change is a vital pillar of our business, and the direct impact of reducing our carbon footprint through this project is exciting. Powering our horizontal transport with hydrogen is just the beginning, and we will see its application expanding in the future, playing a part in our Smart Grid systems with Singapore’s Energy Market Authority (EMA), and augmenting business adjacencies in our future Tuas Ecosystem.”
