TotalEnergies ENEOS Powers Singapore’s First Golf Club with Solar Energy
TotalEnergies ENEOS has successfully completed a solar project at Tanah Merah Country Club, making it Singapore’s first country club to be powered by a ground-mounted solar PV system.
TotalEnergies ENEOS has officially completed its first ground-mounted solar photovoltaic (PV) project in Singapore, collaborating with Tanah Merah Country Club (TMCC), a prominent golf destination in the region. This initiative marks TMCC as the first country club in Singapore to utilize an onsite ground-mounted solar PV system.
Ronald Ong, the Club President, remarked: “The completion of the solar panel installation at Garden Clubhouse is a pivotal step in our commitment to combating climate change and supporting Singapore’s goal of achieving carbon neutrality by 2030. This project is a crucial part of our broader ESG strategy at TMCC, reflecting our ongoing efforts to integrate sustainable practices into our operations.”
Translation: Ronald Ong emphasized the significance of solar panel installation as a critical effort towards achieving sustainability and mitigating climate change.
Antoine Delafargue, from TotalEnergies, stated: “We are honored to be chosen as TMCC’s energy partner of choice. This partnership underscores our dedication to supporting customers in their decarbonization journey.”
Translation: Antoine Delafargue recognized the partnership as a reinforcement of their commitment to assisting clients in sustainable energy transitions.
The 2.2 MWp solar system comprises over 3,700 solar modules, generating significant renewable electricity each year, enough to power approximately 700 four-room HDB flats. The project promises substantial cost savings for TMCC while reducing its carbon footprint by around 1,300 tons of CO2 annually, equivalent to planting approximately 20,000 trees.
This collaboration underlines TotalEnergies ENEOS’s commitment to environmental stewardship, promising a tailor-made solution with zero upfront costs for TMCC as they pay only for the generated electricity over the next 11 years.
