Dear Mr. Patrick Foo
RE: Proposal for generating electricity from hydropower applications in Singapore
This is to acknowledge your letter of authorisation dated 30 September 2015. We are submitting the attached proposal, which would give an in-depth outtake on renewable energy in Singapore specifically, pumped storage hydroelectric plant.
Singapore is solely dependent on fossil fuels for its production of electricity. As of 2015, 95.5% of the natural gas from Singapore’s fuel mix is used to generate electricity. Singapore relies heavily on foreign exports and is vulnerable to the whims of foreign suppliers. To elude this problem, Singapore has to be able to depend solely on itself for its own energy needs.
Our proposal will briefly describe about water, which is one of Singapore’s key resources and the nation’s dependency on fossil fuels for the generation of electricity. The Energy Market Authority of Singapore (EMA) Energy Research and Development Department has set-up an Energy Storage Programme (ESP), which would support the development and integration of large scale, cost-effective systems in Singapore. The proposal will then explain about harnessing hydropower using existing water catchment area with an underground excavated water reservoir to construct a pumped storage hydroelectric plant.
Our team is grateful for your time spent on reviewing our proposal. We hope the suggestions provided would pave way for a new era in Singapore’s energy production.
Sincerely,
