“Critically, this milestone validates how a floating energy asset can generate, store, manage, and export power to the grid, while being remotely monitored and operated from shore,” the company explained. Seatrium’s Floating Living Lab—the world’s first remote-controlled floating distributed energy resource platform—generates electricity onboard, delivers it behind-the-meter through the yard’s substation, and exports surplus power to Singapore’s grid. The two credentialing pathways address twin regulatory gaps that have historically slowed floating power projects—marine classification of a generation-and-storage asset, and the safety case for unmanned, remotely dispatched control of that asset from land. She added that “as Singapore’s grid incorporates more variable renewable energy, storage solutions like this will be important to maintain grid stability and resilience.” For EMA, the FLL serves as a crucial operational testbed for technologies the agency has been developing to firm up Singapore’s grid as it absorbs more variable renewables.
