\nTengah will be Singapore\u2019s newest town.
\nIn a bid to create smart and eco-friendly homes for Singaporeans, the Housing and Development Board (HDB) has inked three new research agreements with three different entities at the ongoing World Cities Summit at the Marina Bay Sands Expo and Convention Centre on Tuesday (10 July).
\nFor instance, it entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with SP Group to study the potential of developing Tengah into Singapore\u2019s first-of-its-kind smart energy town.
\nAnnounced in 2016, Tengah is touted as Singapore\u2019s newest town in over 20 years as well as the first and biggest smart and sustainable town. The government also plans to release for sale the first batch of HDB flats there by November.

\nThe collaboration with SP Group involves developing and testing a centralised energy software system that will act as a brain to collect, process, analyse, and learn about the energy consumption of each unit, neighbourhood and the entire community in Tengah. The study will be conducted for one year starting this month.
\nDubbed as the Smart Energy Concierge, the system will be linked with the energy grid, energy storage systems and solar photovoltaic (PV) generators. Its objectives are to promote greater conservation of electricity, minimise disruption to power services, and channel energy more efficiently to optimise energy use.
\nAs part of the partnership, an Energy Concierge App will be developed that provides future residents of Tengah with the option to link their utilities account. Through this application, they can monitor their power consumption, pay utility bills, subscribe to products and services like smart home solutions and devices, as well as browse electricity retail packages. Those with electric vehicles could also access charging points throughout Tengah and remotely monitor the charging status of their car via the app.
\nIn addition, HDB will also work with SP Group to look into the development of a Centralised Cooling System for residential projects that is more energy-efficient than conventional air-conditioning systems.
\nSeparately, the Housing Board inked a deal with Robin Village Development to study the use of 3D concrete printing for manufacturing unique architectural forms, in a bid to expand HDB\u2019s design and construction capabilities.
\nThe agency also entered into a collaboration with ISO Landscape to research and develop a floating solar system for marine conditions.
\n\u201cIn the face of increasingly complex urban challenges, HDB needs to continually experiment and embrace urban solutions that help us to build better homes of the future,\u201d said its CEO Dr Cheong Koon Hean.
\n\u201cTogether with our local and international partners, we hope to broaden our knowledge and deepen our expertise in the way we harness technology to develop practical solutions to enhance the liveability of HDB estates and support sustainable development in Singapore.\u201d
