Institute of Sustainability for Chemicals, Energy and Environment (ISCE²)

What we do

The Institute of Sustainability for Chemicals, Energy and Environment (ISCE2, pronounced “Easy Square”) was established in March 2022 to advance R&D in areas such as low-carbon technologies, carbon life cycle assessment, sustainable materials and green manufacturing processes using the latest digitalisation and automation tools.

ISCE2 will be partnering academia, public agencies and industry to achieve Singapore’s climate change goals, including the Singapore Green Plan and Zero Waste Masterplan; as well as support the local energy, chemicals and pharmaceutical sectors in becoming more sustainable.

Research Focus

There are 6 research divisions in ISCE2:

  • Carbon Conversion and Future Energy Carriers [CCFEC]
  • Chemical Biotechnology and and Biocatalysis [CBB]
  • Resource Circularity [RC]
