S'pore firms to get more help in adopting clean energy tech
Singapore companies will get more help in adopting clean energy technologies under a sustainability initiative launched on Oct 10.

The Sustainability Alliance guides companies, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), in adopting industrywide measures to reduce waste and greenhouse gas emissions, said the Singapore Chinese Chamber of Commerce and Industry (SCCCI) at its official launch.

The alliance's co-chairman, Mr Frank Phuan, said that among other plans, it will be building an online portal in the coming months for SMEs to find sustainability toolkits.

A report will be published in 2025 by the alliance and Greenprint - an environmental, social and governance reporting platform - to help trade associations, government agencies and solution providers to engage businesses better on adopting green practices.

The alliance was formed in 2022, with SCCCI, the Sustainable Energy Association of Singapore and SGTech working together to develop resources and concrete actions that companies can take.
