Yinson GreenTech, Wilhelmsen Port Services (S) Pte Ltd (“WPS”), and R W Marine Services Pte Ltd (“RW”) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (“MoU”), to accelerate the adoption of marine electrification and sustainable maritime transport in Singapore. The signing took place during Singapore Maritime Week, being held from 24 to 28 March 2025.
