Considering the economic objectives in South Africa and, despite the challenges facing the country, the National Cleaner Production Centre of South Africa (NCPC-SA) believes there remains a “big opportunity” to reduce the country’s carbon intensity. This opportunity, Department of Trade, Industry and Competition (DTIC) green industries chief director Gerhard Fourie said, was largely approached through the NCPC-SA’s resource efficiency programmes, including the Industrial Energy Efficiency (IEE) project, and which assist industry to address water and energy use challenges.
