Singapore could soon receive 1 gigawatt (GW) of electricity from Cambodia, harnessed from solar, wind and hydropower. The imported electricity would be transmitted via new subsea cables of more than 1,000km in length, and would mark the republic’s largest renewable energy import.

This builds on the memorandum of understanding (MOU) on energy cooperation between the two countries, signed in October 2022.

In a first, the Energy Market Authority (EMA) has granted conditional approval to Keppel Energy for this project.
