PacificLight Power to build hydrogen-ready power plant on Jurong Island by 2029
In Singapore, EDB reported that a hydrogen-compatible natural gas power plant built by local electricity generator PacificLight Power on Jurong Island will begin operations in 2029.
The company said the project will be the largest single and most efficient combined cycle gas turbine facility in Singapore.
It will have a capacity of at least 600 megawatts. When it begins operations, it can burn at least 30% hydrogen with natural gas making up the rest, to generate electricity.
In the future, the plant will be able to burn 100% hydrogen, as the power sector works towards net zero carbon emissions, the report said.
