VRFB energy storage project financing options in Singapore 2030

Why is Sembcorp launching a solar energy storage project in Singapore?

It was developed by Sembcorp in collaboration with the Singapore Energy Market Authority (EMA) after winning an EMA contract through a solicitation. With that one project, Singapore its 200MWh by energy storage target and minister Gan Kim Yong said it helps to “counteract sharp and unexpected drops in solar energy.”

What can VRFB-ESS do for Jurong Island?

The VRFB-ESS can accelerate the development and adoption of renewable energy as well as reduce the environmental impact of industrial waste in Jurong Island.

Can vflowtech help Singapore's Energy System?

While that expansion across new markets including Asia and the Middle East is a stated focus, VFlowTech also emphasised the role its technology, particularly in conjunction with its cloud-based energy management platform, could play within Singapore’s energy system.

What does VRFB-ESS stand for?

The project aims to demonstrate the innovative deployment of Vanadium Redox Flow Battery energy storage systems (VRFB-ESS) by leveraging existing storage tank infrastructure on Jurong Island.

Does project finance apply to energy storage projects?

The general principles of project finance that apply to the financing of solar and wind projects also apply to energy storage projects. Since the majority of solar projects currently under construction include a storage system, lenders in the project finance markets are willing to finance the construction and cashflows of an energy storage project.

Why is Singapore a good place to invest in renewables?

Finally, Singapore has built up a vibrant ecosystem of companies across the value chain ranging from clean energy solution providers, project and legal advisories and financiers that can support the development and execution of renewables projects in the region.
