Sentosa to become carbon-neutral destination by 2030: Chan Chun Sing

SINGAPORE - Sentosa will be transformed into a carbon-neutral destination by 2030, as part of its long-term sustainability plan. Announcing this in Parliament on Thursday (March 4) during a debate on the Government's sustainability plans, Trade and Industry Minister Chan Chun Sing said the move is part of Singapore's efforts to capture opportunities in the green economy and in preparation for the rebound in global tourism. In the future, tourists would be more interested in sustainable travel options, such as eco-friendly hotels and attractions, he said. The Sentosa Development Corporation (SDC) said in a press release that it will identify and work with technology partners to testbed sustainable technologies and concepts on Sentosa. It will also engage some 200 businesses within the resort island to work towards its carbon-neutral ambitions. Among its key priorities are to decarbonise energy systems in Sentosa, reduce food waste and introduce green travel options. SDC and state investor Temasek have signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to, among other things, identify opportunities to test solutions to lower the island's carbon footprint.

Budget debate: Electricity prices likely to go up, but efforts will be made to ensure a gradual rise

SINGAPORE - Electricity prices are likely to increase as Singapore's electricity overcapacity situation normalises and fuel prices rise, said Second Minister for Trade and Industry Tan See Leng on Thursday (March 4). However, he noted that price surges and volatilities will be managed. "Even if prices must go up, the Government will do its best to ensure that this increase is gradual, and it will act where necessary to minimise excessive surges," said Dr Tan. Addressing questions on electricity prices from Mr Saktiandi Supaat (Bishan-Toa Payoh GRC) and Mr Liang Eng Hwa (Bukit Panjang), Dr Tan said that wholesale electricity market prices are indeed well-depressed currently. Generation companies (gencos) had built excess capacity to cater to projected bullish demand around a decade ago. But this did not materialise, and intense competition between the gencos have led to electricity prices falling below the full cost of production, he explained. But the overcapacity situation will likely be alleviated in the near future and it is thus inevitable that prices will rise, he said. "Over the medium to long run, electricity prices normalising is inevitable... No company that is commerciall...

‘Very few’ requests from commuters to use child booster seats in taxis during trial

SINGAPORE - A trial to equip taxis here with child booster seats has seen a low utilisation rate, with very few requests from commuters to use such seats, Senior Parliamentary Secretary for Transport Baey Yam Keng said on Thursday (March 4). He was responding to Mr Louis Ng (Nee Soon GRC), who had asked for an update on a pilot programme launched by SMRT Taxis in March last year to progressively equip its fleet of 2,800 cabs with child booster seats. The six-month trial was extended by three months till last December due to the eight-week circuit breaker period, Mr Baey said, and about 1,750 SMRT taxis were equipped with booster seats. The booster seats will remain in these taxis despite the low utilisation rate and SMRT will provide further updates on their usage, he told Parliament. SMRT is the first taxi operator here to offer free child booster seats for its commuters, and Mr Baey said the Land Transport Authority (LTA) will be glad to consider similar trials by other taxi operators. While private cars and private-hire cars are required to have appropriate child restraints or booster seats for children under 1.35m in height, taxis are exempt from this requirement.

Budget debate: Road tax for mass-market electric cars in S’pore to be lowered from next year

SINGAPORE - Road tax for mass-market electric cars will be lowered to be on par with equivalent models powered by combustion engines from next year, removing yet another hurdle to adoption of these cleaner vehicles. Speaking in Parliament on Thursday (March 4), Transport Minister Ong Ye Kung noted that road tax for electric cars had already been lowered in January this year - by as much as 40 per cent. But the larger mass-market electric models still incur more road tax than petrol equivalents. To address this, Mr Ong said road taxes for e-cars in the 90kW to 230kW power band will be adjusted further. To do so, the Land Transport Authority (LTA) - which takes over the Energy Market Authority as regulator of electric vehicles (EV) charging standards - will merge the current electric car road tax bands of 30kW to 90kW and 90kW to 230kW, and subject them to the current road tax formula of the lower band. "That way, we bring down the road taxes of electric cars in the upper band," Mr Ong said, noting that with the change, a Hyundai Kona Electric will see its annual road tax fall from about $1,400 to $1,100, and that of a Tesla Model 3 will drop from $2,300 to $1,500. "This will make th...
