根据初步调查结果,新加坡的地热资源技术潜力估计超过其年用电量的60倍,能源市场管理局(EMA)周一(10月26日)表示。

is estimated to be more than 60 times its annual electricity consumption, according to preliminary findings from a survey, the Energy Market Authority (EMA) said on Monday (Oct 26).

这项非侵入式地球物理调查于2024年至2026年期间进行,发现地下数公里处存在高温地热资源,可能适合发电。新加坡目前的年用电量约为60太瓦时。

The non-invasive geophysical survey, conducted from 2024 to 2026, found high-temperature geothermal resources several kilometres underground that may be suitable for electricity generation. Singapore's current annual electricity consumption is around 60 terawatt-hours.

还需要进一步研究,以验证新加坡地热技术潜力的估算,并确定可行开采的地热能量。

Further studies will be needed to validate the estimates of Singapore's geothermal technical potential and determine how much geothermal energy can be feasibly extracted.

能源、贸易及工业部(能源与工业)部长陈诗龙周一在2026年新加坡国际能源周上表示,这些发现是“一个非常好的开始”,并补充说,如果得以实现,地热能可为新加坡供电未来60年左右。

Speaking at the Singapore International Energy Week 2026 on Monday, Minister for Energy, Trade and Industry (Energy and Industry) Tan See Leng described the findings as "a very good start", adding that if realised, geothermal energy could power Singapore for the next 60 or so years.

这项全国性调查由由领先全球顾问组成的财团实施,成员包括雪佛龙、Metatek Group和Surbana Jurong。

nationwide survey was conducted by a consortium of leading global consultants, including Chevron, Metatek Group, and Surbana Jurong.

调查采用两种非侵入式技术,建立了新加坡的三维地质和热资源模型。

It used two non-invasive techniques to develop three-dimensional geological and heat resource models of Singapore.

Metatek Group负责数据采集和处理,而雪佛龙利用处理后的数据开发了新加坡的三维地质和热资源模型。调查评估了深达10公里的地热资源,以用于发电。

Metatek Group undertook the data acquisition and processing, while Chevron used the processed data to develop a 3D geological and heat resource model of Singapore. The survey assessed geothermal resources at depths of up to 10km for the purpose of power generation.

财团还评估认为,在较浅深度存在较低温度的地热资源,可能利用热泵和吸收式冷水机组支持工业供热和制冷。

The consortium also assessed that there are lower-temperature geothermal resources at shallower depths, which could potentially support industrial heating and cooling using heat pumps and absorption chillers.

后续研究阶段 鉴于初步调查结果,能源市场管理局表示将开展下一阶段研究,进一步评估利用地热能发电、制冷和供热的可行性。

NEXT PHASE OF STUDY Following the preliminary findings, EMA said it would proceed with the next phase of studies to further assess the feasibility of harnessing geothermal energy for electricity generation, cooling and heating.

已委任由Surbana Jurong和GLJ Ltd组成的财团,研究在新加坡部署新一代地热电厂的潜力。

It has appointed a consortium formed by Surbana Jurong and GLJ Ltd to study the potential deployment of next-generation geothermal plants in Singapore.

该研究将涵盖安全考量、技术可行性以及地热能发电成本。研究预计于今年底启动,估计耗时约15个月。

The study will cover safety considerations, technical viability and the cost of geothermal energy production. It is scheduled to start by the end of this year and is estimated to take around 15 months.

陈医生指出,这一过程不会一帆风顺,并提到地热资源位于地下数公里处。

Dr Tan noted that the process would not be straightforward, referring to how geothermal resources are located several kilometres underground.

陈医生表示,最终能产生多少电力,将取决于开采这些资源的成本和技术可行性,以及深层钻探技术的进步速度。

The amount of electricity that can eventually be generated will depend on the cost and technical feasibility of extracting these resources, as well as the pace of advances in deep drilling technology, Dr Tan said.

他补充道:“我们稠密的城市环境也将影响我们最终或切实可行地部署多少座地热电厂,最重要的是,我们必须将安全作为首要考量。”

"Our dense urban environment will also affect how many geothermal power plants we can eventually or feasibly deploy, and most importantly, we must keep safety as a top-of-mind consideration," he added.

能源市场管理局局长潘国强表示,地热能是一种“本土清洁能源,可提供持续电力,并有望在我们的能源组合中发挥重要作用”。

EMA chief executive Puah Kok Keong said geothermal energy was an "indigenous source of clean energy that can provide constant power, and can potentially play an important role in our energy mix".

他补充道:“若被证实可行用于发电,新加坡的地热能资源将增强我们的能源韧性,并支持电力部门的脱碳。”陈医生表示,新加坡尚未决定是否部署地热发电。

"If proven to be viable for electricity generation, Singapore’s geothermal energy resources will strengthen our energy resilience and support the decarbonisation of the power sector,” he added. Dr Tan said that Singapore has not made a decision on whether to deploy geothermal power.

他补充道:“做出该决定可能需要许多年。但无论如何,正如我多次说过的,在新加坡这里,没有任何选项被排除在外。因此,我们将认真探索这一选项。”

"It could take many years before we get to that decision. But nevertheless, as I've said many times before, no option is off the table for us here in Singapore. We will therefore explore this option seriously," he added.
