In Singapore, The Straits Times reported that Singapore will have two more natural gas power plants that are also hydrogen-compatible by 2030. On June 4, the Energy Market Authority (EMA) invited the private sector to build, own and operate two new power plants to be up and running in 2029 and 2030, according to the report. Each plant is expected to have a capacity of at least 600MW, which can power about 864,000 four-room flats for a year. This means that by 2030, there will be at least nine such hydrogen-compatible power plants in Singapore, the report added. This call for proposal by EMA comes a few months after it was announced that YTL PowerSeraya will build an $800 million power plant by 2027. The plant will start off with a capacity to use up to 30% hydrogen, the report added.
