SINGAPORE’S 50% HYDROGEN DREAM HITS PRICE WALL

Hydrogen is projected to supply up to 50% of Singapore’s power by 2050, but high import-related logistics costs and the current price premium over natural gas remain significant hurdles to large-scale adoption. “As a land- and resource-strapped economy, Singapore views hydrogen not as an immediate substitute for natural gas, but as a future baseload fuel that can complement solar, regional electricity imports and other low-carbon solutions,” RHB said in its report entitled “Singapore’s Energy Transition Four Switches, One Market.” Hydrogen combustion produces no carbon emissions at the point of use, and established technologies such as gas turbines and fuel cells are already capable of operating on hydrogen, making it an attractive candidate for deep decarbonisation of the power sector once supply chains mature. https://sbr.com.sg/energy-offshore/in-focus/singapores-50-hydrogen-dream-hits-price-wall (ICE SINGAPORE)
