A. The Programme

1. Following a successful pilot in 2021, Senoko Energy Supply Pte Ltd (“Senoko”) has launched its SolarShare programme (“SolarShare” or “Programme”). This Programme allows Senoko’s customers (“Consumers”) to obtain green attributes (“Green Attributes”) that are associated with the production of green solar electricity from other Senoko customers who produce and export excess solar electricity (“Prosumers”) to Singapore’s electricity grid (“Grid”), via the SolarShare PowerTracer platform (“Platform”).

B. Eligibility

2. You may apply to join this Programme as a Consumer if you are an existing Senoko customer with an electricity supply agreement.

3. By signing up for the Programme, you confirm that you understand and agree to the terms and conditions (“Product Terms”) of our Programme, which are set out in this document and shall form an agreement between Senoko and you.

4. A monthly subscription fee (subject to GST) is payable by you to Senoko for participating in the Programme, as follows:

Estimated Monthly Consumption based on your Senoko electricity supply agreement Monthly Subscription Fee 
 Less than 1.5 MWh
 $10 + GST
 Less than 8 MWh  $35 + GST
 Less than 83 MWh  $50 + GST
 Equal to or more than 83 MWh  $120 + GST
 

 

C. The Process and the Platform

5. This section outlines the process though which you will be able to obtain Green Attributes via the Platform. Green Attributes are calculated based on blocks of 1 kWh of your electricity consumption. 

6. Upon Senoko’s acceptance of your application to join the Programme, you will be provided with access to the Platform. 

7. As a Consumer under the Programme, you will be able to obtain Green Attributes from other Prosumers via the Platform to match your electricity consumption (based on blocks of 1 kWh) for each half-hourly period (“Period”) as follows: 

  • Firstly, you may offer to make or accept offers for Peer-to-Peer Trades of Green Attributes (as described in Section D below) to or from other Prosumers.
  • Secondly, for the remainder of your electricity consumption that has not been matched under a Peer-to-Peer Trade, you will be able to set a maximum price (per kWh) (“Consumer’s Offer”) for each Green Attribute and the Platform will attempt to obtain them for you from the rest of the Prosumers on the Platform via Community Trades (as described in Section E below).  
D. Peer-to-Peer Trades

8. Any Consumer or Prosumer may use the Platform to conduct private direct matching (“Peer-to-Peer Trade”). An offer may be made by either the Prosumer or Consumer to the other party who can either accept or reject it. Additionally, a Consumer may specify, via the Platform, its preference to obtain Green Attributes from a particular Prosumer. A Consumer may also make offers to Senoko’s related company (acting as a Prosumer) for Peer-to-Peer Trades of Green Attributes on the Platform.

9. As a Consumer, while you are only purchasing Green Attributes from the Programme, due to the price difference mechanism in Section G, it is recommended that the price which you offer or accept for the purchase of a Green Attribute should be based on your assessment of the sum of the following factors for that Period: 

  • your Senoko energy rate (“Energy Rate”) which is the energy rate based on the amount that you pay (per kWh) to Senoko under your electricity supply agreement with Senoko, that for the purpose of the price difference mechanism, excludes all other fees, charges and taxes, such as third party Market Support Services Licensee’s (“MSSL” or “SP Services Ltd”) charges, Energy Market Company Pte Ltd’s (“EMC”) charges, and any applicable taxes (such as GST or Carbon Tax). Please contact us at solarshare@dlokoko.com if you are unclear about your energy rate, or what charges and taxes are applicable to you and should be disregarded; and 

  • the maximum price that you intend to pay for each Green Attribute.

10. Please also note that the amount which you will pay to Senoko or receive from Senoko under the price difference mechanism (under Section G below) for the Green Attributes obtained under Peer-to-Peer Trades may be subject to applicable taxes.

11. All Peer-to-Peer Trades are conducted with Senoko, and there will not be any direct transfer of Green Attributes or any payment to or from any Consumer to the matched Prosumer. Under a Peer-to-Peer Trade, the Prosumer will transfer the Green Attributes to Senoko and Senoko will be directly liable to pay the Prosumer or be paid by the Prosumer, based on the agreed price difference mechanism with the Prosumer. Senoko will then transfer the Green Attributes to the matched Consumer and will collect payment directly from the Consumer or make payment to the Consumer based on the agreed price mechanism (Section G) with the Consumer. All transactions with the Consumer are conducted with Senoko, and similarly, all transactions with the Prosumer are conducted with Senoko. There will not be any direct transfer of Green Attributes or any payment to or from you to the matched Prosumer.

 

 

E. Community Trades

12. If you have not obtained any or sufficient Green Attributes under Peer-to-Peer Trades, your Consumer’s Offer will then be used to make an offer to other Prosumers for Green Attributes via the Platform to potentially match the rest of your electricity consumption. Your Consumer’s Offer will be submitted to the Platform to be matched with the rest of the Prosumers on the Platform for the Period, in order to allocate Green Attributes and set a community price.  For example, you may set a Consumer’s Offer of $0.50 per kWh per Green Attribute as your Consumer’s Offer. If you have consumed 10 kWh of electricity for a period, the Platform will attempt to match enough Green Attributes at a maximum price of $0.50 per kWh each to correspond with your consumption of 10 kWh for the period. 

13. While you are only offering to obtain Green Attributes on the Platform, for the purpose of the Price Difference Mechanism (under Section G below), it is recommended that the Consumer’s Offer which you submit be based on the sum of: 

  • your Energy Rate; and 

  • the maximum price that you intend to pay for each Green Attribute.

14. Please also note that the amount which you will pay to Senoko or receive from Senoko under the price difference mechanism (Section G below) for the Green Attributes obtained under Community Trades may be subject to applicable taxes.

15. You may set or update your Consumer's Offer at any time, and it will apply from the beginning of the next Period.

16. Other Senoko Prosumers who wish to offer their Green Attributes can set a minimum price per kWh that they wish to receive for each of their Green Attributes (each a “Prosumer’s Offer”).

7. Community matching will be performed for every Period based on the data sent by MSSL to Senoko, regarding (i) the Green Attributes from all the Prosumers (extrapolated from their solar electricity exports), and (ii) the electricity consumption by the Consumers, to retrospectively allocate Green Attributes (such match(es) are referred to as “Community Trade(s)”) and determine a community price (“Community Price”). The data from MSSL may be received by Senoko up to nine (9) business days after the relevant Period. As such, please note that community matching will therefore not be instantaneous and will only be performed on the tenth (10th) business day after the relevant Period.

18. The Community Price may be different for every Period as it is computed by the Platform according to the following process.  

  • The Platform will first allocate the Green Attributes with the lowest matching Prosumer’s Offer to the Consumer offering the highest matching Consumer’s Offer. 

  • The Platform will then continue matching Green Attributes in this manner by allocating the Green Attributes with the next lowest matching Prosumer’s Offer to the Consumer offering the next highest matching Consumer’s Offer. 

  • This will continue until all Green Attributes available in the community pool for that Period have been allocated or there are no further matches that satisfy any remaining maximum Consumer Offers or minimum Prosumer Offers on the Platform. 

  • The Community Price for the Period will be based on the average of the last two matches between the Prosumer’s Offer and the Consumer’s Offer for that Period.

19. Similar to Peer-to-Peer Trades, all Community Trades are conducted with Senoko, and there will not be any direct transfer of Green Attributes or any payment to or from any Consumer to the matched Prosumer. If there is a match between the offers, the Prosumer will transfer the Green Attributes to Senoko, and Senoko will be directly liable to pay the Prosumer or be paid by the Prosumer, based on the agreed price difference mechanism with the Prosumer. Senoko will then transfer the Green Attributes to the matched Consumer and will collect payment directly from the Consumer or make payment to the Consumer based on its agreed price difference mechanism described at Section G below. All transactions with the Consumer are conducted with Senoko, and similarly, all transactions with the Prosumer are conducted with Senoko. There will not be any direct transfer of Green Attributes or any payment to or from you to the matched Prosumer.

20. Please note that Senoko is only providing a platform service for Consumers to obtain Green Attributes via the Platform. Senoko does not guarantee any matches whatsoever and has no control over the quantity of Green Attributes offered, withdrawn or produced by Prosumers or the price that Consumers or Prosumers submit for such Green Attributes.

 

 

F. No guaranteed matches / verification / discrepancies

21. Please note that there may be various factors why you may not have any matches or are otherwise unable to obtain Green Attributes via the Platform. Senoko shall in no way be responsible for any matches or unmatched offers. Furthermore, as both solar electricity production and electricity consumption fluctuate, please note that the prices and volumes of the matches for Green Attributes will fluctuate.

22. Every unit of Green Attributes produced by Prosumers and every unit of electricity consumed by Consumers will be matched once and only once. Each match in a Period is tagged with a unique match identifier code for verification, and both the Prosumers and Consumers will be able to see the exact same identifier on their user dashboard. A report viewing function is also available on the Platform to view the matching records.

23. Please note that as the matches are done by the Platform from the pool of available Green Attributes, all matches are final and Senoko is unable to change any matches. 

24. In the event that there is any discrepancy pertaining to your Green Attributes, the Green Attribute Premiums (as defined in paragraph 25(a) below), or any other matters relating to the Platform or the Programme, please highlight them to Senoko by email (solarshare@dlokoko.com).

G. Price Difference Mechanism and Green Attribute Premiums

25. As an overview, the amounts payable under the Programme are computed as follows:

  • The amount payable for your Green Attributes for each Period (“Green Attribute Premiums”) based on the Peer-to-Peer matched Consumer’s electricity usage under any Peer-to-Peer Trades are computed based on the price difference mechanism in paragraph 26 below.

  • The Green Attribute Premiums for Community Trades are computed based on the price difference mechanism in paragraph 27 below.

  • The total Green Attribute Premiums for both Peer-to-Peer Trades and Community Trades over your whole monthly billing period will form the total amount payable to or payable by you (“Monthly Green Attribute Premiums”).  The Monthly Green Attribute Premiums may be subject to any applicable taxes, such as GST.    

  • The monthly subscription fee as described in paragraph 4 above will be payable by you to Senoko each month.

26. For Peer-to-Peer Trades, the amount of Green Attribute Premiums payable by you to Senoko or payable by Senoko for a Period shall be calculated as follows:

  • the amount of Green Attributes that you received under Peer-to-Peer Trades for the Period is multiplied by the Peer-to-Peer Trade price, 

  • minus your electricity cost for that Period (rounded down to the nearest 1 kWh), which calculated solely based on your Energy Rate multiplied by the amount of matched Green Attributes for Peer-to-Peer Trades.

27. For Community Trades, the amount of Green Attribute Premiums payable by you to Senoko or payable by Senoko for a Period shall be based on a price difference mechanism that is subject to, among other things, fluctuations in the Community Price. It will be calculated as follows:

  • the amount of Green Attributes that you received under Community Trades for the Period is multiplied by the Community Price, 

  • minus your electricity cost for that Period (rounded down to the nearest 1 kWh), which calculated solely based on your Energy Rate multiplied by the amount of matched Green Attributes for Community Trades.

28. For Community Trades, you acknowledge and understand that the Price Difference Mechanism is based on the Community Price, which is a fluctuating rate. In a normal scenario, you will pay Senoko for the Green Attributes, but there may be other instances where you will benefit from a low Community Price and would receive payments from Senoko.

  • In a normal situation, where the Community Price is higher than your Energy rate, Senoko will issue an invoice to you for the Green Attribute Premiums according to the Price Difference Mechanism. To illustrate, for a specific Period, if the Community Price for a Green Attribute is $0.50/kWh, you have consumed 10 kWh for the Period, have received 10 Green Attributes under Community Trades, and your Energy Rate is $0.30/kWh, then you will pay Senoko [($0.50-$0.30) x 10], which would be $2, subject to any applicable taxes.

  • However, if the Community Price is lower than your Energy Rate, then Senoko will pay you for the difference based on the Price Difference Mechanism. To illustrate, for a specific Period, if the Community Price for a Green Attribute is $0.20/kWh, you have consumed 10 kWh for the Period, have received 10 Green Attributes under Community Trades, and your Energy Rate is $0.30/kWh, Green Attribute Premiums will be based on [($0.20-$0.30) x 10], which would be -$1, and Senoko will pay you $1, subject to any applicable taxes.

29. The price and volume of each Community Trade and Peer-to-Peer Trade can be found on the User dashboard. You will receive an invoice for Green Attribute Premiums payable by you every billing period. If there is payment to be made by Senoko, this will be set off against any sums payable by you under your electricity supply agreement. 

30. For the avoidance of doubt, you will not at any time be entitled to any interest on any sums due from Senoko to you.

C. The Process and the Platform

5. This section outlines the process though which you will be able to obtain Green Attributes via the Platform. Green Attributes are calculated based on blocks of 1 kWh of your electricity consumption. 

6. Upon Senoko’s acceptance of your application to join the Programme, you will be provided with access to the Platform. 

7. As a Consumer under the Programme, you will be able to obtain Green Attributes from other Prosumers via the Platform to match your electricity consumption (based on blocks of 1 kWh) for each half-hourly period (“Period”) as follows: 

  • Firstly, you may offer to make or accept offers for Peer-to-Peer Trades of Green Attributes (as described in Section D below) to or from other Prosumers.

  • Secondly, for the remainder of your electricity consumption that has not been matched under a Peer-to-Peer Trade, you will be able to set a maximum price (per kWh) (“Consumer’s Offer”) for each Green Attribute and the Platform will attempt to obtain them for you from the rest of the Prosumers on the Platform via Community Trades (as described in Section E below).  
D. Peer-to-Peer Trades

8. Any Consumer or Prosumer may use the Platform to conduct private direct matching (“Peer-to-Peer Trade”). An offer may be made by either the Prosumer or Consumer to the other party who can either accept or reject it. Additionally, a Consumer may specify, via the Platform, its preference to obtain Green Attributes from a particular Prosumer. A Consumer may also make offers to Senoko’s related company (acting as a Prosumer) for Peer-to-Peer Trades of Green Attributes on the Platform.

9. As a Consumer, while you are only purchasing Green Attributes from the Programme, due to the price difference mechanism in Section G, it is recommended that the price which you offer or accept for the purchase of a Green Attribute should be based on your assessment of the sum of the following factors for that Period: 

  • your Senoko energy rate (“Energy Rate”) which is the energy rate based on the amount that you pay (per kWh) to Senoko under your electricity supply agreement with Senoko, that for the purpose of the price difference mechanism, excludes all other fees, charges and taxes, such as third party Market Support Services Licensee’s (“MSSL” or “SP Services Ltd”) charges, Energy Market Company Pte Ltd’s (“EMC”) charges, and any applicable taxes (such as GST or Carbon Tax). Please contact us at solarshare@dlokoko.com if you are unclear about your energy rate, or what charges and taxes are applicable to you and should be disregarded; and 

  • the maximum price that you intend to pay for each Green Attribute.

10. Please also note that the amount which you will pay to Senoko or receive from Senoko under the price difference mechanism (under Section G below) for the Green Attributes obtained under Peer-to-Peer Trades may be subject to applicable taxes.

11. All Peer-to-Peer Trades are conducted with Senoko, and there will not be any direct transfer of Green Attributes or any payment to or from any Consumer to the matched Prosumer. Under a Peer-to-Peer Trade, the Prosumer will transfer the Green Attributes to Senoko and Senoko will be directly liable to pay the Prosumer or be paid by the Prosumer, based on the agreed price difference mechanism with the Prosumer. Senoko will then transfer the Green Attributes to the matched Consumer and will collect payment directly from the Consumer or make payment to the Consumer based on the agreed price mechanism (Section G) with the Consumer. All transactions with the Consumer are conducted with Senoko, and similarly, all transactions with the Prosumer are conducted with Senoko. There will not be any direct transfer of Green Attributes or any payment to or from you to the matched Prosumer.

 

E. Community Trades

12. If you have not obtained any or sufficient Green Attributes under Peer-to-Peer Trades, your Consumer’s Offer will then be used to make an offer to other Prosumers for Green Attributes via the Platform to potentially match the rest of your electricity consumption. Your Consumer’s Offer will be submitted to the Platform to be matched with the rest of the Prosumers on the Platform for the Period, in order to allocate Green Attributes and set a community price.  For example, you may set a Consumer’s Offer of $0.50 per kWh per Green Attribute as your Consumer’s Offer. If you have consumed 10 kWh of electricity for a period, the Platform will attempt to match enough Green Attributes at a maximum price of $0.50 per kWh each to correspond with your consumption of 10 kWh for the period. 

13. While you are only offering to obtain Green Attributes on the Platform, for the purpose of the Price Difference Mechanism (under Section G below), it is recommended that the Consumer’s Offer which you submit be based on the sum of: 

  • your Energy Rate; and

  • the maximum price that you intend to pay for each Green Attribute.

14. Please also note that the amount which you will pay to Senoko or receive from Senoko under the price difference mechanism (Section G below) for the Green Attributes obtained under Community Trades may be subject to applicable taxes.

15. You may set or update your Consumer's Offer at any time, and it will apply from the beginning of the next Period.

16. Other Senoko Prosumers who wish to offer their Green Attributes can set a minimum price per kWh that they wish to receive for each of their Green Attributes (each a “Prosumer’s Offer”).

17. Community matching will be performed for every Period based on the data sent by MSSL to Senoko, regarding (i) the Green Attributes from all the Prosumers (extrapolated from their solar electricity exports), and (ii) the electricity consumption by the Consumers, to retrospectively allocate Green Attributes (such match(es) are referred to as “Community Trade(s)”) and determine a community price (“Community Price”).

G. Price Difference Mechanism and Green Attribute Premiums

25. As an overview, the amounts payable under the Programme are computed as follows:

  • The amount payable for your Green Attributes for each Period (“Green Attribute Premiums”) based on the Peer-to-Peer matched Consumer’s electricity usage under any Peer-to-Peer Trades are computed based on the price difference mechanism in paragraph 26 below.

  • The Green Attribute Premiums for Community Trades are computed based on the price difference mechanism in paragraph 27 below.

  • The total Green Attribute Premiums for both Peer-to-Peer Trades and Community Trades over your whole monthly billing period will form the total amount payable to or payable by you (“Monthly Green Attribute Premiums”).  The Monthly Green Attribute Premiums may be subject to any applicable tax, such as GST. 

  • The monthly subscription fee as described in paragraph 4 above will be payable by you to Senoko each month.

26. For Peer-to-Peer Trades, the amount of Green Attribute Premiums payable by you to Senoko or payable by Senoko for a Period shall be calculated as follows:

  • the amount of Green Attributes that you received under Peer-to-Peer Trades for the Period is multiplied by the Peer-to-Peer Trade price, 
  • minus your electricity cost for that Period (rounded down to the nearest 1 kWh), which calculated solely based on your Energy Rate multiplied by the amount of matched Green Attributes for Peer-to-Peer Trades.

27. For Community Trades, the amount of Green Attribute Premiums payable by you to Senoko or payable by Senoko for a Period shall be based on a price difference mechanism that is subject to, among other things, fluctuations in the Community Price. It will be calculated as follows:

  • the amount of Green Attributes that you received under Community Trades for the Period is multiplied by the Community Price, 

  • minus your electricity cost for that Period (rounded down to the nearest 1 kWh), which calculated solely based on your Energy Rate multiplied by the amount of matched Green Attributes for Community Trades.

28. For Community Trades. you acknowledge and understand that the Price Difference Mechanism is based on the Community Price, which is a fluctuating rate. In a normal scenario, you will pay Senoko for the Green Attributes, but there may be other instances where you will benefit from a low Community Price and would receive payments from Senoko.

  • In a normal situation, where the Community Price is higher than your Energy rate, Senoko will issue an invoice to you for the Green Attribute Premiums according to the Price Difference Mechanism. To illustrate, for a specific Period, if the Community Price for a Green Attribute is $0.50/kWh, you have consumed 10 kWh for the Period, have received 10 Green Attributes under Community Trades, and your Energy Rate is $0.30/kWh, then you will pay Senoko [($0.50-$0.30) x 10], which would be $2, subject to any applicable taxes.

  • However, if the Community Price is lower than your Energy Rate, then Senoko will pay you for the difference based on the Price Difference Mechanism. To illustrate, for a specific Period, if the Community Price for a Green Attribute is $0.20/kWh, you have consumed 10 kWh for the Period, have received 10 Green Attributes under Community Trades, and your Energy Rate is $0.30/kWh, Green Attribute Premiums will be based on [($0.20-$0.30) x 10], which would be -$1, and Senoko will pay you $1, subject to any applicable taxes.

29. The price and volume of each Community Trade and Peer-to-Peer Trade can be found on the User dashboard. You will receive an invoice for Green Attribute Premiums payable by you every billing period. If there is payment to be made by Senoko, this will be set off against any sums payable by you under your electricity supply agreement. 

30. For the avoidance of doubt, you will not at any time be entitled to any interest on any sums due from Senoko to you.
