What is REAP?
REAP (Responsible Energy Advocates Programme)
A sustainability programme wholly sponsored by YTL PowerSeraya with the
aim of developing tertiary students to be energy advocates in Singapore – to
raise awareness on energy conservation, to implement energy solutions for
households and to engage in project work for the benefit of the wider
community.
This programme is jointly developed by YTL PowerSeraya in partnership with
the NEA (National Environment Agency) and South West CDC (Community
Development Council).

3 Unique Features of REAP
#1
We are the 1st energy company to have an energy-related
programme targeted at households with South West CDC.
#2
REAP is the only 3P (People-Private-Public) sustainability
programme, developed in partnership with NEA and South West
CDC, that is centric on energy conservation and one that
holistically integrates the components of education, community
service and project work to benefit students as well as the
community.
#3 The community service component of the REAP targets ‘abovethe-line’
households that incorporates a combination of
behavioural change and energy saving fittings to deliver
reductions in household energy consumption.

3 Components of REAP
3 components to complete the REAP programme…
•
Students undergo a
4-day workshop.
•
The workshop helps
students to be
educated in:
•
 Sustainable
development
Students will assist selected
households in the South West
district to reduce their energy
consumption for a 3 month
monitoring period (Jul to Sep
13). Students will work with
an estimated 3 to 5
households.
•
Students will embark on energy
conservation projects for a 3 month
period (Oct to Dec 13). Projects
don’t necessarily need to be linked
to the community service
component.
•
Projects don’t have to be technical
in nature.
 Climate change
& Energy
•
Prizes for winning households
and students.
•
 Behavioural
change
•
SW CDC will assist YTL
PowerSeraya to screen
suitable households and
facilitate arrangements for
house visits.
Projects can also cover the social
change aspects of energy
conservation.
•
No requirement for projects to be
implemented. Choice of predefined projects by YTL
PowerSeraya or student’s preferred

Allowances Provided

Transport Allowance
Each student will be given a S$240 transport
allowance to help them cover the transport
costs during the household energy monitoring
period (July to Sep 13).
Household Allowance
Each student will be entrusted with a
household allowance to help the households
save energy. The allowance (S$200 per

REAP
Students are given Freedom & Flexibility in REAP
We know that you have to juggle between your studies and other
commitments. So, to help you complete all 3 necessary components of
the programme, we have incorporated freedom and flexibility into it!
For example…
• For the community component, students are given free play to the
frequency of visits to the households and the means to achieve the
greatest energy savings during the 3-month energy monitoring period.
• For the project work component, students can leverage on existing
school projects and modify them for the REAP. However, in the spirit of
this program, students must demonstrate that their projects help the
community (e.g. schools, households, businesses) in their energy
conservation.
