Singapore: One-year accelerated depreciation allowance for energy efficient equipment and technology

This tax incentive scheme is provided under the Income Tax Act.  The objective of the scheme is to encourage companies to replace old, energy-consuming equipment with more energy efficient ones and to invest in energy-saving equipment.  Inefficient equipment not only incurs high operating costs as it consumes more energy but also has a negative impact on the environment as a result of higher emission of pollutants to the environment.

Singapore: Energy Recovery from Biomass in Municipal Waste

All incinerable waste not recovered, reused or recycled is sent for incineration at the waste-to-energy incineration plants operated by the National Environment Agency. The combustion of municipal waste including renewables in the waste produce heat, which is recovered to generate electricity. The electricity generated is fed into the electricity grid. The biomass in Singapore’s municipal waste are mainly wood waste, horticultural waste, food waste and paper waste.

Singapore: Increased efforts to use natural gas

Since natural gas is cleaner than fuel oil, Singapore has taken several steps to increase electricity production from natural gas rather than from fuel oil.  It has supported companies in entering import agreements with Malaysia and with the Indonesian state-owned company, Pertamina, to supply natural gas imports.  It is also interested in building an LNG import terminal to allow it to further diversify its supply.

To encourage companies to replace old, energy-consuming equipment with more energy efficient ones and to invest in energy-saving equipment, including solar equipment, Singapore has developed a one-year accelerated depreciation allowance for energy efficient equipment and technology.  Provisions in the Income Tax Act promote efficiency by allowing expenditure to improve efficiency to be deducted as an expenditure rather than as a capital expenditure that has to be depreciated over time.

Singapore: Weekend Car Scheme

Before the implementation of the Road Pricing Scheme, the government introduced the Weekend Car (WEC) Scheme to provide further incentive to reduce vehicle use.  A WEC owner received rebates on the net ARF, and import duty and quota premium (up to a maximum of S$15,000), and paid only 30 per cent of the normal road tax. In return, he could only use his WEC during off-peak hours. Owners were given 5 special day licenses for urgent use during other hours (at $20/day) when they paid their annual road tax.
