Last month, Second Minister for Trade and Industry Tan , See Leng said in parliament that Singapore has plans to build a pool of about 100 nuclear power experts in the medium- , to long-run.  ,
He continued, nevertheless, that Singapore  is unable to agree to a time frame for taking a place regarding the implementation of nuclear power and that no decision has been made regarding it.
NEED FOR “MAJOR INVESTMENTS”
To match its growing energy needs and reduce carbon emissions, Singapore needs more clean energy, said Mr Wong.
One option is to buy low-carbon energy from the area and Singapore is “making improvement” on such exports, he added.
Beyond that, regional clean power is required to increase energy endurance.
While Singapore has” carefully” evaluated the use of low-carbon gas, there are “inherent difficulties” in the production, storage and transportation of gas, which make it difficult to level up in a economically sustainable manner, Mr Wong said.
Authorities had considered using nuclear power in 2010 but determined that Singapore’s current atomic systems were insufficient.
But, there have been” significant advancements” in nuclear technology since, with the development of Biomarkers which have better security features than standard units, added Mr Wong.
