There is currently a strong global push for energy transition, and Singapore as a country that grew its economy through a thriving petrochemical industry, is now undergoing a transition towards solar energy. A large-scale floating solar farm has been built outside of the country’s energy hub on Jurong Island, while the island itself has been scaling up the presence of solar technology as well. While there have been comparative Life Cycle Assessments (LCAs) conducted on Singapore’s energy landscape, including solar energy, none have focused on comparing the differences between solar technology employed on Jurong Island and the floating solar farm. Additionally, there is a gap in research that integrates qualitative data on the engineers and scientists who work in close proximity with solar technology with cradle-to-grave LCA data on solar panels used in both sites. This research can provide a more holistic understanding of how the energy ecology is shaped by the people who work most closely with the technology, and whether there are any correlations between the narratives expressed by scientists, the infrastructure and environment they work in, and the sustainability of the solar panels.
