Coaltech to launch GHG management, reporting framework for coal sector
With support from key industry players, a new initiative led by nonprofit research organisation Coaltech will see the development of South Africa’s first sector-wide framework for managing and reporting Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse-gas (GHG) emissions in coal mining. The initiative seeks to align the country’s largest coal energy producers with international sustainability standards while supporting national goals under the Climate Change Bill, the Just Energy Transition Investment Plan (JET-IP) and South Africa’s Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs).
