$300 Climate Vouchers Singapore Guide (2024): An NEA Vouchers Step-By-Step Guide

On 28 November 2020, Deputy Prime Minister Heng Swee Keat announced the launch of the Climate Friendly Household Programme (CFHP):

Back in November 2020, 300,000 eligible 1, 2, and 3-room HDB households in Singapore could apply for $225 worth of e-vouchers to buy household products that were more energy—or water-efficient.

This scheme has been improved. From today (15 April 2024), all HDB households will receive $300 worth of Climate Vouchers for the enhanced CFHP. These vouchers can be used to purchase 10 types of energy and water-efficient household products, including new additions such as direct current fans, washing machines, and water closets. The Climate Vouchers will be valid until 31 December 2027.

Here is all you need to know about the programme!

Personally, my household uses an energy-efficient refrigerator, LED lights and water-efficient water fittings.

It is an easy decision to make due to the cost savings.

According to the National Environmental Agency (NEA), switching to energy—and water-saving products could save an average household $40 – $120 annually.
