SINGAPORE (The Straits Times/Asia News Network): Singapore will import 1.2 gigawatts (GW) of low-carbon electricity – primarily wind power – from Vietnam, which will fulfil the Republic’s target of importing 4GW of renewable energy by 2035 via electricity imports.
The imports from Vietnam could potentially constitute 10 per cent of Singapore’s annual needs, and will be transmitted through new subsea cables that will span a distance of around 1,000km, said the Energy Market Authority (EMA) on Tuesday.
