This scenic spot has great restaurants for you to enjoy dinner overlooking the yacht-filled waters, as you watch the sun set over the Marina. Even if you are not planning on eating, it’s a great spot to wander by to stop and catch the nightly show.
Besides vertical spaces and rooftops, another alternative space to place solar panels is on reservoirs.
Floating solar farms aim to increase S pore s renewable energy
Tengeh Reservoir is one of the reservoirs where the construction of a floating solar system has commenced.
Spanning an area of over 32 hectares, which is the size of around 45 football fields, the solar system at Tengeh Reservoir will be one of the world s largest floating solar systems.
The energy generated from the solar farm is expected to power about 16,000 four-room HDB flats and will offset seven per cent of PUB s annual energy needs.
Other than Tengeh Reservoir, the national water agency PUB is also in the process of implementing solar systems at Bedok and Lower Seletar reservoirs.
