PUB launches S$6.5 million ‘carbon zero’ challenge to remove emissions from water treatment facilities

As part of its strategy to achieve net-zero emissions by the middle of this century, PUB will award S$6.5 million for “game-changing solutions” that can eliminate carbon emissions from water treatment facilities.

It's wise to put in place a good financial position. สมัครสมาชิก slotxo Don't play with important money. And hopefully, the water in front of you. People who think about it are disappointed and have lost a lot of money. Putting it on the place before starting is the best thing.

This is the prize purse for the Carbon Zero Grand Challenge, which was launched by PUB on Tuesday (Oct 19).

“The Grand Challenge will seek to incentivise innovative solutions that can help PUB, Singapore’s national water agency, achieve net-zero emissions and scale to other water facilities around the globe,” it said.

“PUB is seeking carbon capture, utilisation, removal, and other solutions at any technology readiness level that can be integrated with its operations and reach commercial scale within a decade or sooner.”

The challenge will be hosted on crowdsourcing platform HeroX, and will seek out solutions from around the world and beyond the water sector, PUB said.

PUB on Tuesday also provided details on its “Replace, Reduce, Remove” strategy to "close the carbon loop". This will involve the implementation of new technologies, the deployment of more floating solar farms and the replacement of diesel-powered vehicles with electric vehicles (EVs).

“As we grapple with the challenges of climate change, it is imperative that we continue to ensure that Singapore’s water supply remains resilient but also sustainable,” said PUB chief sustainability officer Chong Mien Ling.
