Your strategic hub for green growth in Southeast Asia

Singapore is committed to building a sustainable future. We are mobilising all of our capabilities to adapt to a changing climate, enable decarbonisation, and unlock green growth opportunities as part of Asia’s sustainability journey.

To realise this vision, we are focusing on priorities that accelerate the low-carbon transition across industry, the economy, and society:

  • Build a low-carbon city and promote sustainable living
  • Catalyse industry and business transformation
  • Pursue effective cross-border solutions

Aside from our national low-carbon journey, Singapore is the ideal springboard for companies looking to capture green growth in Southeast Asia, a region abundant in low-carbon energy resources, bio-based feedstock, and natural carbon sinks like forests and mangroves. Our strategic location places us close to fast-growing low-carbon solutions and to Southeast Asian corporates and governments ramping up their climate ambitions — driving demand for carbon and renewable energy services solutions.
