Power Plants in Singapore
Singapore has 19 power plants mapped on the OverWatts open energy atlas — the 93rd-largest fleet of the 155 countries that hold any, and under 0.1% of the world's mapped total. Of these, 13 operating and 6 under construction or proposed. Operating generation capacity totals 15.0 GW across 13 utility-scale plants of 100 MW and above. The largest is Pulau Seraya power station (3.8 GW).
The largest owner-operators are YTL PowerSeraya Pte (4), Sembcorp Industries Ltd (3) and PacificLight Power Pte Ltd (2) — YTL PowerSeraya Pte alone is named on 21% of them. Half of Singapore's power plants in service predate 2013 (median commissioning year of the 12 with a known date), 2 came online in the past decade and the oldest still listed is Pulau Seraya power station, dating from 1988. 6 are in the pipeline, led by Jurong Island CC power station (670 MW), under construction. They account for 49% of every energy asset OverWatts maps in Singapore.
