PUB to generate solar power from Bedok and Lower Seletar reservoirs

Singapore

PUB said on Monday that it has called a tender to conduct engineering studies for the deployment of floating solar photovoltaic (PV) systems in Bedok Reservoir and Lower Seletar Reservoir.

The national water agency said that energy is required throughout the water loop - ranging from the pumping of raw water from reservoirs to waterworks, and the production of drinking water at waterworks to the treatment of wastewater, and the production of NEWater and desalinated water.
