The Tokyo Electric Power Company, Incorporated (TEPCO) will provide technical
consulting on the construction of power network facilities in Singapore.
As of today, TEPCO has dispatched engineers to Singapore to begin work on
this full-fledged operation.
Singapore is now implementing a general resort facilities development project
to promote tourism. Infrastructure construction and development are underway
in the Bay area and in the city areas in Singapore. From 2009, general resort
facilities will open in Marina Bay and on Sentosa Island.
A highly reliable power supply will be required for these general resort
facilities upon completion. To deal with this situation, SP PowerGrid Ltd.,
a government-affiliated power transmission and distribution company, has
commissioned the task of technical consulting to TEPCO based on our technical
capabilities and experience.
During the design, manufacturing, and construction process, TEPCO technical
consulting provides guidance and suggestions from the viewpoints of economy,
safety, and reliability by reviewing specification, design, and procurement
documents and through visual inspection in manufacturing plants and installation
sites.
For this technical consultation, TEPCO will assign 11 engineers, including
transformer engineers, underground cable engineers, and distribution engineers
to Singapore from July 2007 until November 2008. TEPCO hopes this technical
consultation will contribute to improving power supply reliability in the
Republic of Singapore.
Through the development of overseas business opportunities, TEPCO concurrently
promotes overseas generation and investment projects, as well as the consulting
business, utilizing our technical capabilities and know-how, for continuing
growth and development. TEPCO continues to promote overseas business to further
contribute to progress in the world abroad. Appendix: Outline of Technical Consultation on "Audit for Engineering,
