Singapore has reaffirmed its energy security in light of ongoing geopolitical tensions, particularly in the Middle East. Minister for Trade and Industry Dr Tan See Leng highlighted the country’s diversified energy strategy as the key to safeguarding its energy future. Despite challenges in global energy markets, Singapore’s energy supply remains stable due to long-term investments in infrastructure, energy diversification and regional partnerships.
In his remarks, Tan emphasised the critical role of liquefied natural gas (LNG) in Singapore’s energy mix, which now includes significant renewable energy sources such as solar power and emerging technologies like hydrogen. With a focus on resilience, Singapore has been able to weather past disruptions and is well-prepared for future challenges in the global energy landscape, Business Times reported.
