Singapore plans to reach net zero emissions by 2050.
Carbon dioxide equivalent emissions in Singapore will also peak earlier, such that the country's emissions will be around 60 million tonnes come 2030.
This was announced by Deputy Prime Minister Lawrence Wong during the Singapore International Energy Week on Tuesday (Oct 25).
He also announced goals to improve green financing in Singapore.
New developments in Jurong Lake District and the public sector will also target to achieve net zero emissions by around 2045.
