CEE is working closely with the Centre for Offshore Research & Engineering (CORE) at the Faculty level to support the global effort on energy transition and tackling climate change, through our research on renewable energy and space creation at sea. Renewable energy is instrumental to Singapore’s energy security for a low-carbon future. The sector is growing rapidly, driven by environmental concerns, technological advancements and declining costs. The growth of offshore renewable wind and solar farms in the region signifies our drive for clean energy, at the same time creating opportunities for offshore engineers to tackle issues relating to the environmental and seabed characteristics of the region.

With the increasing demand for liveable space, floating infrastructure is a viable solution for our land-scare in Singapore. The development of a cost-effective infrastructure for coastal protection is also a critical part of our efforts to combat the impacts of sea-level rise. Tapping on our technology and expertise in the offshore and marine sector, CEE and CORE aim to play a leading role in the research on ocean infrastructure and renewables, and collectively drive the transformation of the local offshore and marine industry towards becoming a technology hub and solutions provider for green energy and climate change impact.
