Even as global energy markets remain uncertain, firms can still manage fuel cost volatility and remain competitive.
Solution? It can be done through electrification. BCA has observed how electrification has helped deliver both immediate and longer-term value for firms who have made the transition from diesel-powered equipment to energy-efficient machinery โ from cost savings to more stable operations with grid reliability.
Government support is in place to help firms make the transition through the ๐๐ง๐๐ซ๐ ๐ฒ ๐๐๐๐ข๐๐ข๐๐ง๐๐ฒ ๐๐ซ๐๐ง๐ญ (๐๐๐) ๐๐จ๐ซ ๐๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐ญ๐ซ๐ฎ๐๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง ๐๐๐๐ญ๐จ๐ซ. The EEG supports construction firms by lowering the upfront investment needed to adopt energy-efficient and electric machinery.
If you are a construction firm operating in Singapore, the business sense is made more compelling to make the move to electrification.
