SINGAPORE - Media OutReach Newswire - 16 July 2024 – Senoko Energy, a committed sustainable energy solutions provider to help Singapore reach our Net Zero goals, announces the launch of its 'National Singlet Month' campaign, celebrating individuals keeping cool through the quintessential Singaporean behaviour of singlet wearing amid the hot weather. This initiative marks the first phase of Senoko's larger 'Thank You' campaign, aimed to spotlight everyday individuals saving energy in their own ways. It is also a part of Senoko's overall brand purpose to support environmental sustainability and promote energy-efficient practices among its customers.

Senoko Energy Launches Movement to Celebrate Everyday Energy Savers with National Singlet Month Campaign

Through a series of activities, including a month-long social media contest, short film and influencer engagement, the campaign aims to cultivate appreciation for daily local habits that reduce energy consumption while kicking off a wider movement among Singaporeans to do their part in saving energy for a greener future. To further the benefits, Senoko has also pledged up to S$50,000 worth of customers' energy savings to TOUCH Community Services, encouraging customers to do good for the environment and directly contribute to empowering disadvantaged Singaporeans.

Rallying Singaporeans to keep cool creatively

Amid global warming, Singapore alongside the rest of the world is facing record temperatures[1]. In response, individuals are keeping cool by turning up the air-conditioning[2], with it accounting for 24% of an average household's electricity consumption[3].

Against this backdrop, Senoko's National Singlet Month campaign recognises Singaporeans who choose singlets as a way to stay cool amid the country's tropical heat, transforming everyday fashion into a statement of energy conservation. This initiative is one of Senoko's multiple ongoing sustainability efforts including its SolarShare 2.0 – Singapore's first commercially available peer-to-peer grid scale trading platform for solar energy – and its Memorandum of Understanding with City Energy to explore import of hydrogen power. These comprehensive efforts on various business fronts underscore Senoko's commitment to advancing Singapore's journey towards a net zero.

"With the National Singlet Month campaign, we are not only encouraging Singaporeans to reduce their energy consumption. It is a wider movement to recognise the current ways in which Singaporeans are already conserving energy and to encourage them to continue championing such behaviours," said Frederik Baerts, CEO of Senoko Energy.

"As we explore renewable energy solutions such as hydrogen and green electricity imports, we recognise that energy conservation plays a crucial role in our overall sustainability push. Through creative community engagement and strategic partnerships, we aim to make a significant impact on our environmental responsibilities and community commitments," Mr Baerts adds.
