[SINGAPORE] The government is raising Singapore’s 2030 solar deployment target to 3 gigawatt-peak (GWp), after it met its 2 GWp target ahead of schedule, Finance Minister and Prime Minister Lawrence Wong said in his Budget speech on Thursday (Feb 12). “We will continue to maximise solar deployment across all viable surfaces, and progressively set more ambitious targets further into the future,” he said. He noted that Singapore’s path to net zero as a small, resource-constrained country will depend heavily on technological breakthroughs and sustained international cooperation. This could mean an uneven transition, but one driven by efforts that are “credible, forward-looking and aligned with global realities”. Beyond solar energy, the Republic is pushing forward on plans to import low-carbon electricity from the region. https://www.businesstimes.com.sg/singapore/budget-2026-singapore-raises-solar-deployment-target-3-gwp-2030 (ICE SINGAPORE)
