SINGAPORE'S electricity market will be fully liberalised by 2018, with all consumers including households being able to choose their own electricity retailers, said Minister for Trade and Industry (Industry) S Iswaran on Monday.
The Energy Market Authority (EMA) is working with industry stakeholders to fully open the electricity retail market to competition in the second half of 2018, Mr Iswaran said at the Singapore International Energy Week (SIEW). This will give 1.3 million more consumers, mainly households, flexibility and choice in their electricity consumption, he added.
