Singapore relaxes electricity import load factor rule

Original: Singapore changed its rule for electricity imports: 2024: 75% load factor in every quarter 2025: 60% over the year Per 1

Singapore has loosened its load factor requirement for electricity imports, moving from a 75% threshold required every quarter in 2024 to a 60% average over the year in 2025. This cuts the maximum annual import volume per 1,000 MW of capacity to 5.256 TWh from 6.570 TWh, about 20% less. It remains unclear whether the change applies to earlier approvals, as this has not been made public.

Why now: The rule change materially reduces allowed electricity import volumes, raising questions about Singapore's energy import strategy and existing approvals.
