Manifold Times previously reported MPA launching an EOI inviting financial institutions and intermediaries, as well as marine insurance providers and brokers, to submit proposals to accelerate the adoption of electric harbour craft in Singapore.

MPA added the EOI will help drive the adoption of electric harbour craft among owners and operators of harbour craft in Singapore.

Manifold Times also reported MPA launching an EOI on 10 July to invite parties to submit proposals to design and promote adoption of full-electric harbour craft in Singapore. 

Later in August, it also issued a call for proposal (CFP) to develop, commission, maintain, and operate electric harbour craft (e-HC) charging points at Jurong Port, Marina South Pier, Pasir Panjang Ferry Terminal, PSA Marine – West Coast Base, and Sebarok Terminal together with the existing licensees and operators of these sites.
