As sustainability becomes a key priority for businesses, many companies are setting ambitious decarbonisation and net-zero targets. Transitioning from conventional energy sources to renewable energy offers significant opportunities to support Singapore's Green Plan 2030, but it also poses challenges. Companies must navigate the unique technological, financial, and regulatory landscapes in Singapore while maintaining growth and competitiveness in the global market.

This panel discussion will bring together representatives from leading European companies operating in Singapore who are committed to decarbonisation. They will share their strategies for reducing carbon emissions and aligning their operations with Singapore's sustainability goals. Experts from academia and the local energy sector will provide insights into the broader implications of Singapore's energy transition for industrial players, focusing on both medium- and long-term strategies.

Key takeaways will include:

• Corporate decarbonisation strategies: Practical examples of how companies are integrating renewable energy into their Singapore operations.
• Challenges and opportunities: Insights into the barriers companies face in Singapore and innovative solutions emerging locally.
• Future outlook: Projections for Singapore's evolving energy landscape and how businesses can adapt.
• Collaboration: The importance of partnerships between corporates, academia, and the local energy sector in achieving Singapore's sustainability targets.
