Proposed Amendments to the Energy Market Authority of Singapore Act, Electricity Act, and Gas Act

Decision

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

Update

On 8 May 2024, the Ministry of Trade and Industry (MTI) and EMA published a public consultation to seek public feedback on proposed legislative amendments to the Energy Market Authority Act, Electricity Act, and Gas Act. The public consultation closed on 5 June 2024. MTI and EMA received about 30 responses from the industry and public.

MTI and EMA appreciate the feedback provided by respondents. You may find a summary of the feedback received and our responses on the REACH website. 

Consultation

In October 2022, Singapore announced a national climate target of net-zero emissions by 2050, as part of our Long-Term Low-Emissions Development Strategy. To get to net-zero, we will need to decarbonise the power sector. Power generation, which is primarily from natural gas, accounts for about 40% of Singapore’s carbon emissions today. Developing different decarbonisation pathways such as electricity imports and hydrogen will involve significant investments. Singapore’s energy landscape will also change significantly, including in the way we regulate energy markets and plan for infrastructure development. We will therefore need to update our regulatory regime to support decarbonisation, ensure energy security, and keep our power sector cost competitive.

The Ministry of Trade and Industry (MTI) and the Energy Market Authority (EMA) are seeking feedback on proposed amendments to the Energy Market Authority of Singapore (EMA) Act, Electricity Act and Gas Act.

Details of our proposed amendments can be found on the REACH website.
