Singapore EMA Energy Market Authority Full time $120,000 - $240,000 per year

[What the role is]

The Market Development Department is both developer and regulator of Singapore's energy market. We are undertaking a once-in-a-generation reform of the energy markets as part of the Singapore Energy Transition. At the same time, we ensure proper functioning of a competitive market that is fair to both suppliers and consumers.

[What you will be working on]

You will be expected to:

  • Design and implement policies and regulations with a view to getting buy-in from stakeholders including market participants, the public, or other arms of the Singapore government.
  • Design financing schemes, corporate structures and regulatory policies to accommodate novel business models of energy supply and demand management.
  • Contribute towards EMA's evolving systems view of the electricity market.
    Work with consultants and advisors to design, draft and implement the necessary policy documents, public communications, contracts and term sheets for the above.

You can be expected to lead or support the following projects:

  • Design and integrate schemes to ensure equitable cost recovery for traditional means of electricity generation and investment, given an increasing uptake of renewable energy and energy imports.
  • Design and implement EMA's approach towards better integrating domestic solar and flexibility products (batteries and demand response) – into the electricity market to promote competition and commercial viability, and into future system / infrastructure planning.
  • Rationalise EMA's approach towards generation facilities meant primarily for in-house consumption.
  • Design and implement changes to the electricity market structure and trading setup to accommodate new assets and business models
  • Explore new energy market products and ancillary services for the future needs of the system.
  • Streamline regulatory processes and protocols with the Market Operator.

[What we are looking for]

We are looking for individual contributors to own projects that will be implemented over the next 3 to 5 years.

Attributes

  • Problem Solver: Strong analytical and critical thinking skills; ability to distill complex technical and commercial issues into actionable policy and regulatory approaches.
  • Communicator: Speak and write well – there will be opportunities to draft policy papers or regulatory instruments, and to conduct external consultations.
  • Initiative: Self-directed learner able to venture independently into greenfield areas and lead projects effectively amidst uncertainty – many of the projects above have no precedent in Singapore's context.
    Team Player & Managing Partners: Good at working in a team, and with a diverse range of partners and stakeholders.

Good to Have

  • Experience in public policy, or experience in infrastructure / markets / commercial (energy or other sectors).
  • Familiarity with electricity markets, renewable energy integration, flexibility services (e.g. batteries, demand response), or related sectors (e.g., utilities, grid planning, energy trading).
  • Strong understanding of market design principles and regulatory frameworks.
  • Experience with data analysis or visualisation tools (e.g., Excel, Tableau, Power BI) to support evidence-based policymaking.
  • Project management skills, including working with consultants and external advisors.
