Thank you. This is a very useful information.

Hello, may I kindly ask you whether Bus 199 is too crowded between 8am to 9am from Boon Lay interchange to Clean Tech One and from Clean Tech One to Boon Lay interchange in the afternoon between 5 to 6pm.

[Mith252]

Well, if it is during the semester, it would be crowded. During term breaks, there are not as many people. Do check NTU's semester duration on its website to be sure.

Here are some news on the ground-breaking ceremony for CleanTech Two.

S'pore's first remanufacturing centre to occupy CleanTech Two
Jun 1, 2012 by Cheryl Tay



The Advanced Remanufacturing & Technology Centre (ARTC) will be an anchor tenant at JTC Corporation's upcoming CleanTech Two building (pictured) at CleanTech Park.

ARTC is the first in Asia to embark on research and development (R&D) in order to develop remanufacturing technologies that can be easily adopted by the industry.

Remanufacturing refers to the process of turning near-end products into good-as-new ones. The industry is expected to boost productivity and provide cost savings for businesses, as well as create higher-skill jobs in the manufacturing sector.

The S$70 million CleanTech Two building, which stands next to CleanTech One, will provide 22,300 sq m of office, workshop and laboratory space. The building, which sits on a 0.9 ha site, is set to be completed by Q3 2014.

ARTC is expected to occupy up to 40 percent of the premises.

“ARTC's initiative underscores the compelling value of CleanTech Park in clustering knowledge activities to support sustainable development,” noted Manohar Khiatani, Chief Executive Officer at JTC.

Raj Thampuran, Executive Director at A*Star's Science and Engineering Research Council, noted, “Remanufacturing can have the ability to boost productivity for local industries all the same and lead to cost savings for some businesses.”

JTC Begins Cleantech Two Building Construction for Cleantech-Related R+D Work
Published on June 1, 2012 at 6:18 AM
By Cameron Chai

JTC commenced the construction of its second building at CleanTech park namely CleanTech Two for satisfying the demand of industry players who require flexible spaces, which can accommodate wet and dry laboratories for cleantech-related R&D activities.
Cleantech Two is located adjacent Cleantech One and will have 22,300 sq. m of laboratories, office spaces and workshop in a site spanning 0.9 ha.

The building will include distinct sustainable features and is scheduled to be completed by Q3, 2014. The centre is a combined effort between academia, public sector research labs and industry players to enable the growth of remanufacturing technologies in Singapore. Advanced Remanufacturing Research Centre (ARTC) will be the anchor tenant.

JTC’s CEO Mr Manohar Khiatani stated that the company’s second building Cleantech Two will add a new dimension to clean technology R&D and to Clean Tech Park. Cleantech Two will be the anchor of remanufacturing technology growth and will improve environmental sustainability for the manufacturing sector.

Cleantech One offers office space and laboratories, CleanTech Two will enable prototyping and research activities that need higher height clearances, heavier loading and higher electrical power requirements. Furthermore to meet the increasing demand for cleantech incubation facilities, CleanTech Two will be characterized by fitted offices and laboratories. Cleantech Two is equipped with sophisticated green features such as the right building orientation to reduce heat gain.

This building has been designed to have 30% better energy efficiency when compared to a standard building having the same usage and size.

NTU President, professor Bertil Andersson stated that the JTC CleanTech Park will have a number of large research centres like the Nanyang Environmental and Water Research Institute (NEWRI) and the $200 million Energy Research Institute at NTU.

NTU along with the ARTC will play a significant role in developing the new technology by contributing its research expertise resources and technological capabilities.

Saw this at Pioneer station on the way to campus. Looks like there is a shuttle service from that bus stop.
