This is now known as ESG001v : Key Accounting Considerations in Adopting Green Energy - Implementation of FRS 115 & FRS 116 (Live Webinar).

 

Programme Objective
The government has announced new targets for the Singapore Green Plan 2030 and one of them was to increase solar deployment to 1.5 giga-watt peak (GWp) by 2025 and at least 2 GWp by 2030. 

In response to the government’s calling and green initiatives, there has been an increasing number of companies switching to renewable energy to reduce their carbon footprint by signing a Power Purchase Agreement ("PPA"). This includes placing solar systems at the roof of their office buildings, malls, factories to generate and consume solar energy. Accountants, who are the backbone of the company, must be prepared for such transformations. 

This course is designed to equip participants with an appreciation of the following accounting impacts and ensure their companies are ready for the change from the perspective of a customer and a vendor:
 

• Key concepts and core principals of FRS 115 and 116
• Implementation challenges and opportunities of FRS 115 and 116 from
  1. Signing a PPA
  2. Building your own rooftop solar system
