Kenzo Tan 陈政智
Senior Manager, Energy & Renewables @ Singapore Economic Development Board (EDB)
About
As a Chemical and Biomolecular Engineer, I am passionate about driving operational excellence and advancing sustainability within the Energy & Chemicals sector. My expertise spans energy management, process optimization, and building resilient energy supply chains. I collaborate with industry leaders to drive the growth and transformation of Singapore’s Energy and Chemicals sector, focusing on sustainability, energy resilience, and increasing sustainable product output. In addition, I play a vital role in coordinating with the Whole-of-Government on emergency preparedness for energy crises and future pandemics, ensuring readiness for critical situations. Previously, as a Sembcorp Scholar and Technical Engineer at Sembcorp, I led the optimization of performance across both renewable and conventional assets. My work involved leading cross-functional teams in energy efficiency, waste reduction, and implementing green financing strategies that delivered tangible results. With a results-driven mindset honed from my background as a former National Team track athlete and current Dragon Boat competitor, I am committed to achieving measurable outcomes that not only foster industry growth but also support environmental sustainability.
