REAP REAP (Responsible Energy Advocates Programme) A sustainability program 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. The REAP program has been running since 2010. This programme is jointly developed by YTL PowerSeraya in partnership with the NEA (National Environment Agency) and South West CDC (Community Development Council).

  5. 3 Unique Features of REAP 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 ‘above-the-line’households that incorporates a combination of behavioural change and energy saving fittings to deliver reductions in household energy consumption.

  7. REAP for Tertiary Students REAP Draws upon the energy and passion of youths today on the issue of climate change by nurturing tertiary students to be energy advocates in raising awareness and taking action on energy conservation. We welcome the participation of tertiary students to make this a meaningful and sustainable programme that benefit not only themselves but also the community they come in contact with. Only 30 tertiary students are selected each year to be in the REAP programme… Be one of them!

  8. 3 Components of REAP REAP 3 components to complete the REAP programme… Project Work Community Service Education • Students will assist selected households to reduce their energy consumption over a 4 month monitoring period (Jul to Oct 14). Students will work in pairs to help an estimated 3 to 5 households save energy. • Prizes for winning households and students. • Students will embark on energy conservation projects . Projects don’t necessarily need to be linked to the community service component. • Projects don’t have to be technical in nature. • Projects can also cover the social change aspects of energy conservation. • No requirement for projects to be implemented. Choice of pre-defined projects by YTL PowerSeraya or student’s preferred projects subject to approval. • Students undergo a 4-day workshop. • The workshop helps students to be educated in: • Sustainable development • Climate change & Energy • Behavioural change • Energy audit • Workshop starts in June 2014.

  11. Allowances Provided REAP Students under the REAP programme will be given the following allowances: 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 Oct 14). Household Allowance Each student will be entrusted with a household allowance to help the households save energy. The allowance (S$200 per household) is to be used for the purchase of energy saving fittings/devices. Note: The allowance figures above are actual numbers used in the 2013 REAP program but may be subject to slight changes in future program runs.

  12. Students are given Freedom & Flexibility in REAP 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 4-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.
