Low-carbon hydrogen: Timely for Singapore to deepen research
New breakthroughs could improve the economics of this promising fuel
Add BT as a preferred source
SINGAPORE is deepening research on low-carbon hydrogen as an energy source – a timely move even with mixed sentiment around the fuel.
On Aug 6, the Energy Market Authority called for a study on developing laws and policies related to hydrogen fuel, The Straits Times reported. The study could touch on aspects such as hydrogen imports and infrastructure, and financing schemes.
This comes after Singapore launched a national hydrogen strategy in 2022 to develop the fuel as a major decarbonisation pathway. Hydrogen could even supply up to half of Singapore’s power needs by 2050.
