Measure, manage, minimise

Accurate reporting identifies emission hotspots, enabling smarter energy use and cost savings

Greenhouse Gas (GHG) reporting is the process of measuring, compiling, and submitting emissions data generated by an organisation’s operations. In South Africa, it is a mandatory legal requirement for qualifying entities under the National Greenhouse Gas Emission Reporting Regulations (NGERs). A GHG reporting system ensures accurate emissions tracking, regulatory compliance, and contributes to a transparent national greenhouse gas inventory.

Commitments

The data collected is vital for South Africa to update its National GHG Inventory

Risk Management

The process of accounting for emissions helps companies identify inefficiencies in their operations
