The announcement was made at the inaugural Singapore Industry Decarbonisation Forum 2026, hosted by EDB, the Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR), and the Advanced Energy and Decarbonisation Office (AEDO).
The partners framed the arrangement as complementary. Singapore's research base, industrial infrastructure and connectivity across Asia are paired with EIP's global reach across energy and industrial companies and the technology startups it works with. Together, the parties said, these strengths support the full innovation journey, from research and development and test-bedding to scale-up and commercial deployment.
Under the agreement, EIP will connect promising companies to Singapore's innovation landscape and open channels for technical exchange and strategic collaboration between local research institutions and industry. The two organizations also plan to deepen ties between their networks and explore pathways to commercialize and scale innovative technologies.
Anil Achyuta, Partner, Frontier Investments at Energy Impact Partners, said the partnership reflects the ambition of Singapore's approach to the energy transition and that connecting EDB's ecosystem with EIP's global network can help energy startups find a path to scale in Singapore and beyond. Wey-Len Lim, Executive Vice President of the Singapore Economic Development Board, said partnerships with global investors help Singapore gain insight into emerging technologies and industry needs, and that the collaboration aims to develop and scale solutions addressing the country's decarbonisation needs.
EIP describes itself as investing across venture, growth, private equity and credit, with a model built around entrepreneurs and corporate partners. The release does not disclose deal values, specific portfolio companies or fund commitments tied to the partnership.
