“Challenge Period” and “Baseline Period”
The Challenge Period is dependent on which months the electricity meter readings3
are taken.


For households whose electricity meters are read on the odd months (i.e.
July, September), their Challenge Period will be from August to September
2017.
For households whose electricity meters are read on the even months (i.e.
June, August), their Challenge Period will be from July to August 2017.
The Baseline Period is taken to be the 2 months before the Challenge Period.
The Challenge and Baseline Periods for participating households are set out below:

Odd months

(i.e. June, August)
Baseline Period
Challenge Period

3. Participants can refer to their SP Group utility bill to find out if their electricity
readings are taken in the odd or even months. Metered months are those without an

In Singapore, the electricity meters are read manually once every two months. On the months when the
meters are not read, the electricity usage will be estimated based on the past month’s consumption. Any
over or under estimation of the bill will be adjusted in the subsequent bill when the meter reading is taken.
