The project is part of the SGD $8M partnership between Singapore’s Energy Market Authority (EMA) and PSA Corporation Ltd “to transform PSA’s energy usage in port operations through the use of smart grid technologies and energy management systems.” The idea is to use an ESS to better manage peak loads. EMA and PSA selected a consortium led by Envision Digital to develop an SGMS which includes an ESS and solar photovoltaic
panels managed by Envision Digital’s…
