LED Lighting Return of Investments (“ROI”) for Vessels
To align with the Group’s environmental objectives, BH Global has established a strategic partnership with GL Lighting Holdings Pte Ltd. With over 20 years of expertise in research and development, design, and manufacturing, GL Lighting specializes in advanced and innovative Green LED Lighting solutions.
Their impressive track record includes more than 500 ODM and OEM projects for renowned international lighting companies. Together, we have developed SOPEX as a brand to drive Green LED technology and innovation towards innovative solutions to help address pressing concerns with the environment.
SOPEX has since contributed to various LED retrofitting projects such as the retrofitting of LED Lighting for vessels. With a successful track record, SOPEX has completed over 100 LED retrofit projects to date.
Making the switch to green LED Lighting solutions can be daunting for many new users. Hence, SOPEX offers a complementary Lux (a unit of illumination) Calculation service for all clients for initial stages of planning or design up to completion of the installation or retrofit project.
Along with the long service life of up to 100,000 hours, SOPEX provides extended warranties of 3 to 5 years to help ensure the products sold are guaranteed to work for its longest service life.
Holding itself to the highest standards, SOPEX conducts inspection reports on ROI for all clients, disclosing data about total costs of ownership and the cost savings from the reduction of consumables from conventional lighting. from the installation of SOPEX LED lighting averages about 2 to 3 years, making it easy to entice conversion.
SOPEX is committed to meet the most stringent specification to replace . Utilizing light performance curves, SOPEX can help to ensure the right applications are installed for maximum energy savings for the benefit of our environment.

Warehouse LED Retrofit
SOPEX retrofitted several warehouses with SOP green LED Lights. One client has had 142 units of 400W Metal-Halide Highbay and 78 units of 4ft Weather-proof Fluorescent Luminaires with our SOP-Lite LED Highbay and 4ft LED Weather-proof luminaires.
The retrofit has brought our client 25,296KWh annual energy savings and S$8,165.46 annual energy cost savings.
PAC Canopus
Pacific Carriers Limited placed an order with SOPEX to retrofit the out-deck lights on the PAC Canopus general cargo vessel. The retrofit has seen 90% total energy savings of 107,529 kWh per year, and SGD41,678.24 in energy cost savings annually.
The PAC Canopus retrofitted 44 1 Modular floodlights, 6 units slim watertight and 10 units pendant light. The total initial investment for the LED retrofit project is S$17,779.
Based on the consumable cost of S$18,490, PAC Canopus vessel has an ROI of just 0.4 years, annual savings of S$41,678.24 on energy running cost and S$1,131.79 on lighting consumables cost.
Coastal Sustainability Alliance
- Sea Forrest Power (SFP)
- Kuok (Singapore) Limited Maritime Group
- Agency for Science, Technology and Research
- GenPlus Pte Ltd
- Jurong Port Singapore
- Technology Centre for Offshore and Marine, Singapore (TCOMS)
- TES-AMM (Singapore) Pte Ltd
The Alliance aims to upgrade Singapore’s maritime ecosystem and accelerate the decarbonisation, electrification and advancement in energy-efficient logistics and engineering solutions.
With an estimated investment of about S$20 million over the next 10 years, the Alliance will first focus on vessel electrification initiatives to decarbonise the coastal maritime industry.
The CSA has plans to build a network of stationary and mobile electric chargers for these ships along the country’s coast and remodel used batteries from electric cars into modular packs for ships to prevent wastage. The vessel electrification trials may begin as early as 2024.
By utilising the strengths of each alliance member, SFP will work closely with CSA to co-create viable business opportunities with local SMEs and start-ups to foster a sustainable green supply chain and maritime business ecosystem.
This is Singapore’s first collective effort to decarbonise the logistic supply chain from vessel redesign, infrastructure to a circular economy with reduced resource use and future-proofing the vessels with environmentally sustainable energy sources. The Alliance hopes to see a reduction of 50% in vessel carbon emissions and 20% in marine traffic by 2030.
In FY2022, SFP developed a marine hybrid system for one of our key customers. The Factory Acceptance Test (“FAT”) is conducted at SFP’s warehouse located at the BH Global Headquarters.
