Singapore is one of the world's leading nations in meeting the green energy industry. Hello from America, please send us some of your team members to spread the knowledge and products you're pioneering! This is a very important stage for Singapore, every nation has an obligation to emulate and embrace your amazing progress. Stand tall, walk proudly, as you are a beacon shining so brightly, every citizen must have pride in your work. Bravo 👏.!
Really Singaporeans you should be proud of your country l wish you knew how other countries are like out here, projects are started but never finished l tell, you should be proud
Like any country or major city, Singapore has its problems, but there's a real commitment to engineering and implementing sustainable solutions, backed by serious support from the government, private companies, and investors. That's really admirable, and it's also a good demonstration of how important it is that governments and corporations support their country's sustainable and renewable infrastructure, and climate change adaptations. Engineers cannot work in a vacuum, and without that support and commitment, these vital projects cannot happen.
Sometimes I wonder what the world would have looked like without innovations like this😊, my advice for everyone, both in the agricultural industry and elsewhere, is to evolve with the world in others so as not to to be left behind
Sorry for the inconvenience, I just had to add. Cryptocurrency is the future of money and a very good way to invest and make extra profit, I am grateful to Mr. Larry Kent Nick for introducing me and making me earn so much thanks to this new innovation

@@l-b01josefandres44 you're even q bigger idiot. those panels reduces sun exposure thus reducing evaporation which helps the water reserves last longer in case of water shortages
Im surprised that Singapore as such an advanced nation has not already implemented this long ago. We have the same system in Germany. But not with sensors but real measured electricity flow. These shown sensors seem too unprecise in my opinion for a very precise calculation. But i might be wrong. Generally, however, the whole Solar initiative is great and I wish them best success asap.
@@MrAcrobot I'm not talking about floating solar power plants. We dont really need those here. I am talking about installing solar on your private roof and sharing power with neighbors and the general grid depending on your own and other's demands...
@@stefanroeder87 if you do some research frst u wud know that Sgpore is a land contraint city hence skyscrapers and high rise bldgs so there is no private roofs.. of course there are solar installed at the top of the bldgs for power usage for common areas like hallway & walkways, lightings etc, but to say to supply a few hundred household/units with a limited surface area atop of the bldg that is nuts..even power supply used for lightings in the parks and roads are from solar in Sg nowadays.. so you cannot assume one’s method can be applied universally to others hence even resorting to the sea surface or inter-country like sg-aus solar grid is being placed.
@@maan1450 I never said that it can power the whole country. Of course not. I visited Singapore 3x already. I understand the issue. But that not most of the roofing (as shown in this video) is already used for solar is not understandable to me if you - otherwise - have to install it on the water etc. Direct local consumption is always best, especially with constant energy demand for airconditioning.
I think the power of Singapore comes from the good culture of government bodies and agencies. It does not only in an efficient way but also in considerate way for other creatures which is given as responsibility to us all from God Jesus in the beginning: please see genesis in the Bible. This video show a stark difference in culture and doctrine between Singapore and South Korea. Singapore is doing good.
15 000 jet airplanes flying at 30000 ft daily dump the most Co2 in the atmosphere. High speed trains will reduce plane travel. Also control of forest fires in US, AUSTRALIA, SIBERIA, and AMAZON will reduce Co2 emissions and increase Co2 removal from the atmosphere. Co2 is useful in greenhouses to increase plant growth.
The amount of mental gymnastics it takes to convince yourself that lower CO2 is a good thing boggles the mind. Looking at 10,000 year trends we are at the lowest CO2 levels the Earth has ever been at.
I am not a politician. But I must give a fair judgment and comment of this project: you cannot find a government in the world to care for the people and the future as in Singapore.
This was meant for the floating solar farm installation instead of wharfs. A lot of fish tend to congregate under or around shady areas, such as oil platforms and docks, so I can imagine these floating platforms will attract many fish especially if there are columns going down into the water to give hiding spots. With what China is doing to Hong Kong I can see Singapore taking over as the shipping center of East Asia. Now they are putting in a lot of wharf space on the water itself.
Singaporeans on average use 170 000 kWh energy. The same number for Europeans for example is 31 000 kWh. This is the other side of the coin. Singapore is a huge energy consumer, and one of the ten cities in the world that emits the most co2 to the air every year.
@@Coz131 Yes, you need it a lot. Not all the time though. Many times a fan does the trick. An average fan uses 70 w, an air con uses 1000 w per hour. Also, this happened to me this Monday: I had to go somewhere and because I am eco conscious, I took the bus. I also had to walk to reach my destination. I was sweaty by the time I got back on the bus to go back home. On the bus the air con was going wild, the difference between the outside temperature and inside one was over 10 degrees C. I'd had to sit in these conditions for 30 mins. All sweaty from my walk. Next day I felt weird. Wednesday I had terrible headache. Thursday I had fever. Today, Sunday I feel better, still coughing though. That kind of air con is absolutely unnecessary and harmful. We can do better.
i think other big nation with need to start build city more space efficient even with abundant of land . i live here in texas urban brawl is such a problem . you can not get anywhere with out a car . public transportation is not even an option if you live out side downtown area .
Cool initiatives across 3 episodes, thumbs up. But diving deeper into the last episode’s participant, Electrify, reveals a dark history. One that involves fundraising through an initial coin offering (ICO), with an erc20 token called ELEC, of which today it seems to be an abandoned/forgotten project. Quite a shame, considering the premise it gave to early crypto investors back then.
7:00, 46:00 Singapore has a large number of water catchment areas, many roof tops, expressways, main roads, canals, islands, car-parks for installing solar panels. Structures can also be built across 2 similarly tall buildings to contain urban hydroponics / aquaponics farms with rainwater collection system and solar panels to reduce urban heat, flooding and power supply problems in Singapore. The positioning of the floating solar panels must be properly designed and modular to faciltate required or expected maintenance, repair or replacement activities. Building geometry, shades & insulating materials do not fundamentally reduce urban heat due to transfer of heat elsewhere in the atmosphere. These should only be secondary activities, not primary activities for reducing urban heat in Singapore. Week-long or month-long analysis of minute to minute solar power generation can be used to estimate level of battery storage required to stablise electricity outputs of the solar panels?
Crystaline silicon is the conventional common material used in solar panels, but perovskite solar panels are better because they have higher absorption rate
The urban heat island effect is going to effect every built up area therefore floating solar is amazing to cool water underneath also to collect energy for the near by area. The nearby area needs to cool therefore any buildings not taking advantage of solar roofs can create cool outdoor spaces not by painting roofs a very costly process for multiple buildings, the solution is to find or construct four buildings or more in a ring around outdoor spaces then attach a large bright reflecting material between them like an awning for outdoor spaces and lower level buildings that are underneath this could shade many places and channel rainwater where needed to work much like water collection we currently use.
This area was one of the first regions to be dived bombed and attacked by the Japanese in 1942. The gun battery behind the solar panels was also one of the first defense sites to be bombed.
So, what happens when the water rises (2’ or more) due to climate change? Who’s going to redo all the anchor lengths? What are the logistics for future problems?
JUST TO SAY,,, one good storm over the most shallowest of lagoons and even with shelter of trees its a total rightoff as far as the array is concerned. Now wind is as bad if your looking at the recycling of ether item the blades can only be recycled in the USA and are shredded then added to concrete
Has'nt Singapore any tide power projects? Power from the sea tides could supplement Wind Power generators built on the surrounding islands. This is a useful documentary.
The reason why Singapore is such an ideal port is because it is in very calm waters with limited tidal action. It's probably one of the worst places in the world to consider tidal generation. Offshore wind might make far more sense. Singapore has all the necessary industrial infrastructure to build off-shore wind.
I agree with you, i don't know about America but china just need more energy than other nations because they are worlds factory and the amount of industry that supports their economy are more than any country. They already no 1 energy production capacity for wind, solar, and hydro power and top 3 nuclear energy production but only account 27% of the whole electricity production. Their infrastructure project already amazing but whole electricity demand keep growing 10% per year.
Let's put solar panels on every home, business and covered parking rooftop and switch to electric vehicles making nearly everything we do solar powered while completely decentralizing our power supply and empowering everyone as power generation owners. Solar power is CHEAPER and electric vehicles are soon to be CHEAPER to make and already are considerably CHEAPER to maintain and operate, especially if charged from your own solar power. A 3-5 year ROI (return on investment) for a solar array that will generate power for decades is a no-brainer and the panels can even be made locally too. #EndFossilFuels #SwitchToSolar #SwitchToElectric #GreenNewDeal #EmpowerEveryone
Every building and structure should have solar panels installed on the roof. This will reduce heat load on the building and se all these area for power. Singapore could probably generate a large percentage of the power needs just from solar. Cannot depend totally on large scale power plants. Singapore can mandate such power plants as they have strong government.
The largest floating solar farm in the world is the *Dezhou Dingzhuang Floating Solar Farm* in China, with a capacity of *320 megawatts (MW)* ¹. Here are some key details about the farm: - *Location*: The farm is located in Dezhou, Shandong, an eastern province of China on the Yellow Sea ¹. - *Capacity*: The farm has a capacity of 320 MW, making it the largest floating solar farm in the world ¹. - *Power generation*: The farm is expected to generate around 550 million kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity per year ¹. - *Connection*: The farm is connected to 8 megawatt-hours (MWh) of battery storage and a 100 MW wind farm, making it a hybrid solar-hydropower project ¹. - *Construction*: The farm was constructed in two phases, with capacities of 200 MW and 120 MW, respectively ¹.
Why did they also use the floating system underneath the platform of the solar system. Like in Denmark. They have used a floating system in the ocean to generate power. If they use that kind of system to keep the platform afloat then the will have 2 system generating power.
Instead of building up, digging requires no surface, only a mining effort, and the resulting habitat would be well regulated thermally, not subject to weather phenomena, quiet, easy to enclose in order to protect against gigaton attacks of any nature, and did I mention the possibility of free mineral resources?! Energetically, why use intermittent frail solar, instead of geothermal from deep down exhausted into ocean thermal mass? It doesn't make sense. A single storm wipes solar back into the ground it came from.
The cranes and swan cannot swim in the above land if you cover them with solar panels which makes it difficult for them to catch fish and eat for their food
Instead of laying the solar panels flat, why can't they can be mounted on large floating rectangular pyramids? And why can't solar cells be integrated into the wall curtains on new high-rises and sky-scrapers?
Because windows should also be able to be seen-through, not blocked with solar cells. Glass embedded with transparent solar cells are not efficient and expensive.
Man will get electricity but it would killed the aquatic lives down below. Imagine the whole country being block from sun shining upon them. All the greens will die.....Same when the lake or sea being blocked out of 🌞.
Working on scaling up is a waste of time, unless they can solve the stability problem. Under real life usage, the panels don't have a working life of more than one year. They need at least 20 years, preferably 30.
@@schmetterling4477 Not as much as someone who makes posts like yours that have nothing to do with what you are replying to. If they can solve the stability problem, then the higher efficiency cells will be great. Until then, they are not economically feasible when you have to replace them every year - or even more frequently. The massively increased labor costs would make their usage prohibitive. The scientists are gaining ground. The first versions of the cells only lasted a few hours. I am keeping my fingers crossed.
@@schmetterling4477 This is my last reply Troll. What does the reliability of well established solar cell types have to do with this? This is a brand new solar technology which, if the problems can be worked out, may greatly reduce the cost of solar energy due to its greater conversion efficiency. It is the reliability of this new technology that is the concern. Goodby. Find someone else to demean and patronize.
solar floating farm is painful to watch. all they need to do is decide and implement the largest module/section they can build on land (with all the necessary connections and floaters) then ship it to the water.
like I alluded to that would be extremely expensive and just the maintenance costs are prohibitive left alone the cost of initial setup. Most areas don't get the intensity of sunlight needed to run completely off solar 24/7 . We need better safety measures obviously but we need nuclear in order to provide enough power to charge everyone's electric cars and the electric planes. Imagine the amount of energy we would need to create if every gas vehicle was electric and solar unfortunately doesn't put a dent in it so we need people to stop demonizing nuclear which is actually the most carbon friendly source of power by the statistics.
@@techdoc.repair My comment was on a FLOATING solar panel array. More expensive than rooftop, very inefficient design. I am comparing a strategy of deploying a floating solar farm to deploying rooftop installations. Yawn.
They didn't have to get a Singaporean narrator, but CNA (as a Singapore broadcaster) certainly should have caught the error and resolve it during production.
Tengah Reservoir guess that’s what they are referring to. But really, it’s a big booboo. How to get a name wrong and still make a documentary out of it.

Singapore can mandate such power plants as they have strong government.
You’re living in a deIusion to think that’s a good idea.
Similar floating projects on surrounding sea water could be attempted fir supplementing!!!
The largest floating solar farm in the world is the *Dezhou Dingzhuang Floating Solar Farm* in China, with a capacity of *320 megawatts (MW)* ¹. Here are some key details about the farm:
- *Location*: The farm is located in Dezhou, Shandong, an eastern province of China on the Yellow Sea ¹.
- *Capacity*: The farm has a capacity of 320 MW, making it the largest floating solar farm in the world ¹.
- *Power generation*: The farm is expected to generate around 550 million kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity per year ¹.
- *Connection*: The farm is connected to 8 megawatt-hours (MWh) of battery storage and a 100 MW wind farm, making it a hybrid solar-hydropower project ¹.
- *Construction*: The farm was constructed in two phases, with capacities of 200 MW and 120 MW, respectively ¹.
Realy I like it
How to change subtitle to Chinese?
Why did they also use the floating system underneath the platform of the solar system. Like in Denmark. They have used a floating system in the ocean to generate power. If they use that kind of system to keep the platform afloat then the will have 2 system generating power.
Like buoy system in Denmark.
What an amazing country. Better than my useless government in Australia
that said, thank you Australia for providing solar power in the upcoming project. :)
Dont forget the wave energy
In the end they used the Units kW/h and kW/month which didnt really make sense
🎉 singapore🇸🇬
China always look at Singapore for their ingenuity
You should consider a local narrator, Tengah reservoir is pronounced superbly
The reservoir is called Tengeh though.
Instead of building up, digging requires no surface, only a mining effort, and the resulting habitat would be well regulated thermally, not subject to weather phenomena, quiet, easy to enclose in order to protect against gigaton attacks of any nature, and did I mention the possibility of free mineral resources?! Energetically, why use intermittent frail solar, instead of geothermal from deep down exhausted into ocean thermal mass? It doesn't make sense. A single storm wipes solar back into the ground it came from.
Ha ha, in silicon valley, the process is done in superclean room
why not put wave engy turbine under the solar farms.
@@schmetterling4477 water is really heavy so even consostant milimeter high waves a have tremendous power in them

catch the rain water more effectively and thats all you need. natural is best.
The cranes and swan cannot swim in the above land if you cover them with solar panels which makes it difficult for them to catch fish and eat for their food
Instead of laying the solar panels flat, why can't they can be mounted on large floating rectangular pyramids? And why can't solar cells be integrated into the wall curtains on new high-rises and sky-scrapers?
Because windows should also be able to be seen-through, not blocked with solar cells. Glass embedded with transparent solar cells are not efficient and expensive.
Malaysia also got huge solar farm. Ask their former PM's wife. Maybe hidden somewhere in her hair

Man will get electricity but it would killed the aquatic lives down below. Imagine the whole country being block from sun shining upon them. All the greens will die.....Same when the lake or sea being blocked out of 🌞.
So will they dump the environmentally toxic panels at the end of their life in the ocean?
Of course they will, kid. But before that happens I will give you the attention that you aren't getting from your Mommy. ;-)
@@schmetterling4477 Nah, you ain't got the girth.
@@phucdims1984 Trust me, you will know it when I am on top of you. ;-)
@@schmetterling4477 great another predditor groomer
Working on scaling up is a waste of time, unless they can solve the stability problem. Under real life usage, the panels don't have a working life of more than one year. They need at least 20 years, preferably 30.
Ah, there is the second kid today who desperately needs attention. ;-)
@@schmetterling4477 Not as much as someone who makes posts like yours that have nothing to do with what you are replying to.
If they can solve the stability problem, then the higher efficiency cells will be great. Until then, they are not economically feasible when you have to replace them every year - or even more frequently. The massively increased labor costs would make their usage prohibitive.
The scientists are gaining ground. The first versions of the cells only lasted a few hours. I am keeping my fingers crossed.
@@buggsy5 Child, you need to grow up. Solar power has been reliable for decades.
@@schmetterling4477 This is my last reply Troll.
What does the reliability of well established solar cell types have to do with this? This is a brand new solar technology which, if the problems can be worked out, may greatly reduce the cost of solar energy due to its greater conversion efficiency. It is the reliability of this new technology that is the concern.
Goodby. Find someone else to demean and patronize.
@@buggsy5 I can tell that your need for attention is bottomless. ;-)
Apa Tan-geh reservoir?
solar floating farm is painful to watch. all they need to do is decide and implement the largest module/section they can build on land (with all the necessary connections and floaters) then ship it to the water.
yeah well we do not have huge amount of free land like other countries have, we do not have the space to put a giant solar farm on land
ceramic filters? are they statue grade ceramic so couldnt you pour dirty water into a chia pet and out comes cleaner water?
That is correct.
@@ReachOutToWilliam where are you from
Nuclear seems better as long as safety measures are followed. This isn't feasible, but it looks good.
Or just mandate solar panels on every building rooftop.
@@ReachOutToWilliam you paying? or just tax the rich?
@@techdoc.repair Mandate the solar panels in the building code. Not sure where you came up with the notion of taxing the rich.
like I alluded to that would be extremely expensive and just the maintenance costs are prohibitive left alone the cost of initial setup. Most areas don't get the intensity of sunlight needed to run completely off solar 24/7 . We need better safety measures obviously but we need nuclear in order to provide enough power to charge everyone's electric cars and the electric planes. Imagine the amount of energy we would need to create if every gas vehicle was electric and solar unfortunately doesn't put a dent in it so we need people to stop demonizing nuclear which is actually the most carbon friendly source of power by the statistics.
@@techdoc.repair My comment was on a FLOATING solar panel array. More expensive than rooftop, very inefficient design. I am comparing a strategy of deploying a floating solar farm to deploying rooftop installations. Yawn.
Ten-gay Reservoir... I laugh every time I hear that... hahaha
👍👍👍
If solar energy is not transfer for resident use the country is not carbon free
A focus on making the environment more comfortable. Yes, make the frog comfortable and don't worry about the temperature of the pot.

Where is "Tang-geh" reservoir located in Singapore ?
CNA cannot find a Singaporean narrator ?
stop be xenophobic & racist.
They didn't have to get a Singaporean narrator, but CNA (as a Singapore broadcaster) certainly should have caught the error and resolve it during production.
Tengah Reservoir guess that’s what they are referring to. But really, it’s a big booboo. How to get a name wrong and still make a documentary out of it.
From Tengah to Tangeh🤣😂😅hilarious!
just don't use air con
I have a trillion dollars and I want to give you money for investment. They can’t see us in the universe can you see them? Go to your friends in your house.
I want to find investors, I want to sell 50mwp solar power plants in Vietnam
They should send the solar panels to the sun imagine the kind of power....I should not give them ideas...
Energy sunvests 1.0 my idea
Lol what a stupid unsarcastic comment
Locks like they did't found anything else since 30 years ago.
What have you found?
It's a pain in the as.
I smell jealousy 😂
