In a major boost to regional sustainability, Singapore has secured USD 655 million to fund green infrastructure projects across South-east Asia and South Asia. The financing aims to accelerate the development of renewable energy, low-carbon transport, sustainable water systems, and climate-resilient urban infrastructure.
The funding was mobilized through partnerships with international investors, development banks, and regional stakeholders. Officials noted that the initiative aligns with Singapore’s broader strategy of positioning itself as a hub for green finance while supporting neighboring economies in their transition toward net-zero pathways.
Projects backed by the fund are expected to reduce carbon emissions, expand clean energy access, and strengthen climate adaptation in fast-growing economies where infrastructure demand is rising rapidly.
Analysts view this move as a significant step in bridging the infrastructure investment gap while channeling capital into sustainable growth opportunities across Asia.
