OKAY

The idea of sustainability often feels like a big word, like something tied to sweeping policy shifts or major lifestyle overhauls. But in truth, creating a more liveable planet starts with the choices we make daily. Whether it’s how we cool our homes or the way we move through our cities, small shifts in our choices can collectively create outsized impact in the long run.

At Senoko Energy, we believe that sustainability is most powerful when it is integrated in our everyday lives in a practical way. When being green fits into your routine, it becomes habits that will shape our future.

Here are four simple green choices we can consider:

1. Set the Right Temperature, the Right Way

You probably already know this. But this simple fact is worth another mention: Did you know that setting your air-conditioner to 25°C instead of 22°C can save up to 20% in cooling energy? 

The Go 25 movement encourages households in Singapore to set their air conditioners at 25°C as a recommended sweet spot for energy efficiency and comfort. Even in a tropical country like Singapore, this is a temperature difference you’ll barely feel, except when the electricity bill comes in. Combine this with good habits like closing doors and windows while the AC is running, and you’ve got a simple recipe for reduced energy use. 

Or, how about considering just using the fan for cooler days, such as when temperatures fell to between 22 to 24°C during the monsoon surge earlier this year? From ceiling fans to bladeless fans and even solar-powered fans, there are tons of options out there in the market today that are effective in keeping you cool without breaking the bank.

Tip: Don’t overlook how you use your aircon. Turning it on at a higher temperature alongside a fan can provide the same comfort while reducing energy use.

2. Upgrade to Energy-Efficient Appliances

When shopping for new appliances, keep an eye out for NEA’s energy labels: more ticks equal more savings in the long run. A 5-tick refrigerator or washing machine might cost a bit more upfront, but the long-term savings and environmental benefits far outweigh the initial expense.

Where you position your appliances can also make a difference. For instance, place your fridge in a cooler part of the kitchen, away from direct sunlight or hot appliances like ovens. This reduces the effort needed to stay cold and helps lower energy consumption.

Tip: Beyond the ticks, also consider going full electric by switching to induction stoves. It’s more energy-efficient than traditional gas stoves and generates less wasted heat.

3. Choose Solar-Powered Electricity Plans

Whether you are living in an HDB or a private property, solar energy is more accessible than ever. Senoko Energy’s SolarShare is Singapore’s first-of-its-kind green energy platform, enabling households and businesses to directly access and support locally produced solar energy on our national grid.

SolarShare empowers you to take charge of your sustainability journey with real-time transparency and flexibility. You can track your energy consumption, monitor carbon emissions reductions, and understand how much surplus solar energy is available for sharing. All these features and more are now made available through a smart, user-friendly dashboard. Find out more here.

4. Be Sustainable at Home and on the Road

One of the most impactful ways to reduce your household’s carbon footprint is to adopt cleaner energy both at home and while you are on the roads. That’s why Senoko Energy has partnered with Novowatt, a leading local EV charging solutions provider, to help households live more sustainably. Through this collaboration, residents in condominiums with Novowatt charging stations can enjoy exclusive electricity rates from Senoko Energy, coupled with EV charging services.

For consumers, it’s a low-effort, high-impact way to embrace sustainability without sacrificing comfort or control. Whether you’re plugging in your vehicle or turning on the lights at home, this collaboration helps you take charge of your carbon footprint in all the ways that count.

Beyond the rewards, this collaboration reflects a growing synergy between the energy and mobility sectors, working together to build an ecosystem that supports Singapore’s Green Plan 2030.

Bonus tip: You can now enjoy even more savings with a limited-time promotion of extra rebates if you sign up or renew before 31 December 2025.
