Singapore infrastructure trust owning the town-gas distribution utility, waste-to-energy plants and water treatment assets.
City Gas earns a regulated tariff set by the Singapore authority, which lets it recover costs and make a permitted return; the water and waste-to-energy assets earn contracted payments from government agencies, often for availability and capacity regardless of volumes. Together they give distributions steadier than commodity-linked earnings. It is managed by the Keppel group.
