SINGAPORE - Private water suppliers that harvest rainwater and those that treat seawater on a large scale will be taxed by national water agency PUB from early 2025.

This will apply to suppliers who provide non-potable water for their own use or for sale, with the new tax largely affecting country clubs, golf courses and industrial premises

......

PUB has seen an increase in the number and scale of these private suppliers. In case these suppliers face disruptions or stop supplying to their customers, the agency would need to maintain a sufficient reserve capacity to ramp up water production at short notice

......

The reserves will help to ensure overall water resilience, he added, noting that the private water supply sector currently supplies about 1 per cent of total water demand in Singapore.

“Keeping private water supply small would be an important safeguard... If the (private water suppliers) sector were to grow multifold, it will place significantly more risk on our water system,” added Dr Koh.
