I refer to the report “Bugis Junction installs 1,000sqm of solar panels” (May 26). I hope the Government will consider using the land surrounding the reservoirs to install solar panels and gather solar power in a bigger way than from rooftops alone.
There is a limit to our reliance on oil and gas to generate electricity and we must rely not only on fossil fuels to fire our power stations, but also on cheaper electricity from solar power, et cetera.
It is a competitive world and the cost of energy is one of the business costs we must do more to reduce. To remain competitive, we must stay ahead of other countries in the use of green energy.
This would also reduce our carbon footprint and pollution, which affects our health although it is an unseen factor. This is even more important to consider, as people are our only precious resource. We must not take pollution lightly.
