• Answers to the guiding questions in order for your classmate to make an informed choice of which source of energy provides the optimal balance between continual availability, affordability for the whole county and impact on the stability of the ecosystem in Singapore.

1) State the advantages and disadvantages of the allocated energy in the context of Singapore.

2) What are some of the challenges of using this particular energy resource in Singapore (resources scarcity / land / weather etc)

3) Possible way(s) to overcome these challenges to ensure energy trilemma (reliability, affordance and sustainability)

Advantages: It produces less pollution compared to other source of renewable energy and create job opportunities to make reliance on using wind power possible.

Disadvantages: It takes up space which means deforestation and what makes it not reliable is that wind is not present all times.

Way that we can overcome these challenges:

Lesser space used> stack the wind turbines

Wind presence> Make a loop system where wind turbine and fan is connected? Such that once wind energy is produced from turbine it transfer to fan and fan produces wind energy to turbine then turbine produces energy again to fan and so on.

Suggest a sustainable energy source that is suitable for development in Singapore and how it can be deployed in our limited space, or any other limiting factor for Singapore that your team can think of.

The following are considerations you can make:

1) Your case can be made up of one or more energy sources to facilitate 24/7 energy extraction under various situations  (e.g weather or production process, etc.)

2) Relation between processes of generation (e.g. how is energy generated? what energy conversions happen?) and/versus consumption (how is the energy used? will their generation process affect how the energy is used?)

3) different energy generation methods, big or small, working together to meet Singapore’s energy demands constantly 24/7.

4) different energy sources supplying energy at different times of the day to provide continuous source of energy for pre-determined purposes
