EcoLabs-COI
Enterprise Singapore, NTU and the Sustainable Energy Association of Singapore (SEAS) jointly established the EcoLabs Centre of Innovation for Energy (EcoLabs-COI) in 2019 aiming to help Singapore-based energy start-ups and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that are applying cutting-edge scientific principles. The Centre focuses on collaborations that can help energy technology developers to explore commercial opportunities and has established an international network of accessible testbeds in companies around the world. It provides infrastructure support including access to NTU laboratories and facilities and partnerships with more than 30 testbeds in external organizations. Projects can receive business and technical service support as well. These include pairing start-ups with a potential corporate customer to co-operate on designing a project that EcoLabs-COI and the corporate entity can jointly support through corporate funds, and EcoLabs-COI’s access to infrastructure and services.In three years, EcoLabs-COI has supported over 35 start-ups and SMEs in clean energy technology.
