PVTIME – TotalEnergies ENEOS has signed another rooftop solar PV (photovoltaic) installation with CARROS Centre, Singapore’s largest freehold automotive hub to power its facility with renewable energy. This is the second project signed, after the installation of rooftop PV system in 2019, contributing to a total capacity of approximately 1 megawatt-peak (MWp) for CARROS Centre to use renewable energy as part of their power supply.
Upon completion, the 1 megawatt-peak (MWp) solar energy system is expected to produce about 1,250 MWh of electricity annually, enough to power about 275 four-room HDB flats for a year. The solar power system will also help avoid over 480 tons of carbon dioxide emissions annually, equivalent to planting over 7,200 trees.
In addition to reducing the company’s carbon footprint, CARROS Centre will be able realize electricity supply cost savings from the clean energy produced for 25 years without any upfront investments.
Raymond Ng, Chairman of BS Capital Group, the Developer and Majority Shareholder of CARROS Centre said, “The signing of this second solarization project at CARROS’s rooftop reinforces our commitment towards achieving a sustainable future through renewable and green resources. We believe that our continual partnership with TotalEnergies ENEOS will grow further.
