As part of the smart grid management system (SGMS) project at Singapore''s ports, the city''s first energy storage system (ESS) has been deployed at the Pasir Panjang Terminal
The Authority has in place a programme called Accelerating Energy Storage for Singapore (ACCESS) through which along with initiatives like the smart ports projects it launched an expression of interest (EOI) to build, own and operate 200MW/200MWh of BESS in the country in May.

Hence, the adoption of solar energy at the cargo terminals of Jurong Port and PSA is beneficial for the port sector as well as the country’s long-term interest. The other renewable energy sources are far less suitable and feasible in the context of Singapore.
PSA, another terminal operator in Singapore, also installed a 4 MW peak solar system in the Pasir Panjang Terminal in 2018 (Straits Times, 2018). However, solar energy is an intermittent energy source; that is, energy outputs from the sun are irregular and not continuously available to generate a power supply.
A recommendation is to implement a smart energy management system to match energy demand and supply optimally, leading to higher energy efficiency and sustainability. For instance, solar energy can be stored to offset peak energy consumption when a terminal encounters the highest volume of cargo operations.
