"We look forward to this win-win collaboration as we combine the Keppel Group's deep industry expertise in its key businesses with Envision's technologies to create sustainable urban solutions."
Envision Group executive director Michael Ding said: "At Envision, we believe that energy can be beautiful. It is possible to achieve clean, secure, plentiful energy, which will be the catalyst to solving the world's biggest issues. However, this possibility hinges on purposeful collaboration with partners like Keppel.
"I look forward to the exciting shared outcomes of our partnerships, and hope that we will be able to develop even better solutions via smart technology to take clean energy to the next level."
