Sembcorp Floating Solar Singapore, a wholly owned subsidiary of Sembcorp Industries, developed the Sembcorp Tengeh Floating Solar Farm at Tengeh Reservoir in Singapore. The Sembcorp Tengeh Floating Solar Farm covers about 45 hectares of Tengeh Reservoir and contains more than 122,000 solar panels across 10 floating islands. The installation has a generation capacity of 60 MWp and supplies electricity sufficient to power Singapore’s five local water-treatment plants. The solar farm covers about one-third of the reservoir, while two-thirds remains open. Gaps between the floating panels allow sunlight and airflow to reach the water, while aerators help maintain dissolved oxygen levels. The installation was preceded by extensive engineering and environmental studies examining its compatibility with Singapore’s water infrastructure and surrounding ecosystem. The project is estimated to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by about 32,000 tons annually. Continuous monitoring of water quality is also part of the installation’s operation.
