https://www.channelnewsasia.com/sustainability/singapore-renewable-power-northern-territory-sun-cable-explainer-2780861 what do you guys think? I wonder if our gov has invested in this… I really hope not.

Singapore has BIG refine oil industry. I guess it may be a BIG money reason why Singapore Government did not support renewable energy such as win energy, solar energy, sea wave energy and EV. Because of this BIG money reason, Singaporeans have to use petrol cars and have to pay for petrol tax + carbon/environment taxes while using petrol cars. Double wins for Singapore Government, double losses for Singaporeans and environment.

Hi guys, I noticed there are many drivers who never turn on their headlamp at all as there are backlit in their meter gauge and DayLight, I have encounter 2 vehicles on the same day. Guess that is the basic when you drive on the road and what was taught when you went to learn driving, just don't understand why drivers can forget to turn on headlamp.

The truth? The lies? Are we blindly jumping on the bandwagon and dropping off the cliff? Be careful who we are sleeping with. I think its a good time to watch this long video and make our own judgement. We can wake up or we can say its all bulls**t.

So much for politics of "carbon-friendly" and Paris accord climate change agreement.. What's new ?

went autobacs and was quote $396 for 4 piece (185/70/R14), is the price reasonable? thanks.

Business Times - 11 Apr 2011 S'pore starts pre-feasibility study on nuclear energy: Iswaran Singapore has embarked on a 'pre-feasibility' study on nuclear energy, aimed at helping the government better understand the complex field of nuclear energy, S Iswaran, the Senior Minister of State for Trade & Industry and Education, told Parliament on Monday. Mr Iswaran said the study will help the government gain a deeper insight into critical issues like the different technologies that are available and being developed; the international regulatory regime as well as the essential elements for the safe operation of a nuclear plant and protection against terrorist attacks. 'Even with the completion of the pre-feasibility study, we will still be a long way from making any decisions on nuclear energy for Singapore,' he added. Mr Iswaran said Singapore is also actively exploring options to diversify the nation's fuel mix in the near and medium term. He was replying to queries on whether the Fukushima incident in Japan would derail Singapore's study of nuclear energy." The above was taken from business times. Does that mean PAP is going nuclear? It is a yes or not question, if they are not why do a feasibility study? If the answer is yes, they have to say so cos voters need to know. Why are we not studying solar energy instead?

Anybody using this pdt, think quite a lotsa s'porean using it. Mum installed a unit for me,now time to change the ceramic filter unit. But [crazy] :wacko: , 1 unit cost $100. Anybody know where to get cheaper one,like compatiable...................... Pls help.............. http://sg.diamondew.com/dews.html

Which will be better? Price for 195/60/15 per pc? Anyone?

As per topic Which will you choose? Your review is greatly appreciated. Regards

Thinking of changing to Michelin Energy tires.... anyone uses them b4 can help advice which is a better choice in terms of noise, and handling... Thanks

TOKYO (AFP) - - As world oil prices skyrocket, thousands of households in energy-poor Japan are taking part in an ambitious experiment to use fuel cells to light and heat their homes. ADVERTISEMENT Since the prime minister's official residence became the first house in the world to be equipped with a domestic fuel cell in 2005, about 3,000 households have signed up to have the grey boxes installed outside their homes. The project aims to thrust Japan to the forefront of a "hydrogen society" that has kicked its addiction to fossil fuels and produces affordable energy while spewing out far less of the greenhouse gas that is blamed for global warming. "The principle of fuel cells has been known since the end of the 14th century, but their first practical use was not until 1965, aboard the American spacecraft Gemini 5," said Michihiro Mohri, a senior vice president at Nippon Oil Corp. The fuel cells produce electricity and hot water through a chemical reaction between oxygen and hydrogen extracted from natural gas or other fuels. "The hydrogen needed can come from various sources -- hydrocarbons, natural gas, bio mass or rubbish" to create methane, said Mohri. While the fuel cells do not emit carbon dioxide, some is produced by the system during the process to extract hydrogen from natural gas, although less than traditional forms of power generation. As well as producing electricity, the fuel cells also ensure a steady supply of hot water for households. With no motor inside, the machines -- about the size of a small cupboard -- are also silent. "Households with the system are also no longer at the mercy of power cuts during natural disasters," said Mohri, an obvious plus for people living in one of the most earthquake-prone countries in the world. Japan, with almost no natural energy resources of its own, is seeking to reduce its dependence on crude oil imports by developing energy efficient appliances and alternative forms of power generation. Oil prices posted their biggest ever one-day gain on Friday, hitting a new record of 138.54 dollars a barrel in New York, up five-fold since 2003 amid supply worries and rising demand in emerging economies. Far behind in meeting its obligations under the Kyoto Protocol to cutting emissions, Japan hopes to drastically reduce the amount of carbon dioxide produced by its households. The government even recently called on households to cut their time in the bath or shower to help meet Kyoto targets. The government-sponsored fuel cell scheme involves a clutch of Japanese energy and technology heavyweights including Nippon Oil, Tokyo Gas, Sanyo Electric, Toshiba, Matsushita Electric Industrial, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Toyota Motor. Some provide the source of hydrogen, others batteries or other components. The government estimates there could be demand for 550,000 domestic fuel cells a year in Japan within a few years. There are 48 million households in Japan, of which 25 million live in individual houses. For now, however, the system is expensive at about two million yen, or some 19,000 dollars, excluding installation. Research is underway to make the machines as economical as possible thanks to less expensive sources of hydrogen. Thanks to reductions in the cost of components, the companies involved in the project hope to reduce the price of the equipment to one million yen as soon as possible to boost demand, and to cut it further to 500,000 yen in 2015. Japanese automakers are also chasing the fuel cell dream, working to create a viable car which would produce power through a chemical reaction between hydrogen and oxygen and leaving water as the only by-product. http://sg.news.yahoo.com/afp/20080608/tap-...pa-d1078a1.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Can I import the fuel cell device from Japan???Buay Tah Han the fuel price these days Can't stand those cartels anymore..

http://www.rev-1.com.sg/energy.htm Hi, can give comments on this brand of EO? Kimchi ride suitable to use? Thanks ya.

Hi all, Recently there is this advertisement about Diamond energy water purifier. I would to ask if anyone have used this purifier before and your opinion on whether is it as good as advertised? Thanks

1. Just switched to this tyre, very comfortable and lesser noise, less than 51db. 2. Anyone using this? Regards,

I wonder whether white colour car can save air_con under hot sun i put my hand on my white colour car surface, very hot but still can stand , next to my car was a dark red colour car, i put my hand on this red car surface, wow! I couldn't stand more than 3 secs , why so different , you can imagine the air_con cool down the red car may consume more power

Hi guys, Just wondering, what exactly does it mean when a engine oil has a "Energy Conserving" sticker on it? I went through some threads in BITOG and found out that a energy conserving oil is designed to thin a little thus improving fuel consumption. Is that all? Some guys in BITOG says that a energy conserving 10W-30 oil like RP will thin to 20wt by 5000 miles.

Any comments on the 2 tyres above in terms of comfort, noise, wet/dry grip, handling, price? Thanks.

Is there anyone want to buy Michelin Energy 195/65/R15? Just removed it from my new Honda Accord on Day 1. Comes with stock steel rims. Selling for 380. C&C.

Received in the mail this morning and immediately installed it. Took about 2-3 hours due to inexperience, but here's a installation pictures. http://matrix.newobject.org/tech/esinstall/ First test drive review: Wow, the change is very drastic and it also changes the whole dynamics of the engine. Yes, there are slight increase in vibrations felt inside the car, however it is good feedback... Such as if you engage the gear too low RPM, you'll feel it very pronounce in the car, then you'll know not to do it the next time. The vibration of the engine now produces a low growl, kind of like a deep exhaust. Very very nice mod.. IMO, if you are the type of person who is willing to sacrifice drive comfort by dropping it 1-2" and low profile tires, you will LOVE this mod. It changes the engine note to a much more aggressive note, and very responsive. It feels like the pick up is improved and you won't lose any speed from the jerking while shifting gears. What this mod does is to secure your engine in place, so more of your engine goes to the tranny and then the ground. It is extremely helpful if you shift at high RPM.
