SINGAPORE: The Energy Market Authority (EMA) is set to experiment with the deployment of energy storage systems (ESS) in Singapore, in a move that could bring cost savings for consumers. ESS are batteries or other forms of technology deployed on the power grid to store electricity when demand is low and discharge it when demand spikes.
In its policy paper, EMA reiterated that ESS “could help Singapore to move towards a low-carbon and more flexible energy system”. “The EMA will continue to monitor developments in other jurisdictions and see how lessons can be applied to Singapore,” it said.

The ESS technologies deployed, redox flow and lithium-ion batteries, will be evaluated for their performance under Singapore’s hot, and humid environment. The test-bed will also help establish clear technical guidelines for ESS deployment (e.g. grid connection and safety requirements for installation).
The utility-scale ESS has a maximum storage capacity of 285 megawatt hour (MWh), and can meet the electricity needs of around 24,000 four-room HDB households3 for one day, in a single discharge.
