The NCPC-SA is a national programme that drives the transition of SA industry towards a low carbon economy
About us
The National Cleaner Production Centre South Africa (NCPC-SA) is a programme of the South African government focused on enabling the country's industrial sector to increase its competitive capability and sustainability through more resource efficient and cleaner production. The NCPC-SA falls under the auspices of the Department of Trade and Industry (the dti) and is hosted on its behalf by the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR). The NCPC-SA promotes the implementation of Resource Efficient and Cleaner Production (RECP) methodologies to assist industry to lower costs through reduced energy, water and materials usage, and waste management. The NCPC-SA is a member of UNIDO and UNEP’s global resource efficiency and cleaner production network (RECPnet) and plays a leading role in the African Roundtable on Sustainable Production and Consumption (ARSCP), with the NCPC-SA currently the President of the African body.

A partnership project of the NCPC. Watch this space for more #circulareconomy tools and tips. Lee-Hendor Ruiters
#TeamCSIR has developed guidelines (https://lnkd.in/dd7bgzAF) for #PROs and producers to give effect to their life cycle assessment obligations under mandatory EPR (https://bit.ly/EPR-Regs). Find out more about the CSIR’s LCA service offering at https://lnkd.in/dQ7jXUUq. Guideline 1 (https://lnkd.in/dxbBmGBP) provides best practice for undertaking LCA studies, guidelines 2-4 provide additional information. The project was funded by the Department of Science, Technology and Innovation through the #WasteRDIRoadmap and the Department of Trade, Industry and Competition through CSIR NCPC-SA.

National Cleaner Production Centre of South Africa reposted this
In an era where climate change increasingly affects water and energy resources, the need for climate resilience in agriculture and agroprocessing has never been more pressing. South Africa, in particular, faces unique challenges owing to severe water scarcity, fluctuating energy availability, and sectors relying heavily on water and energy. But within these challenges lies an opportunity to reshape the future. Through the lens of the Water-Energy Nexus, South Africa can harness the power of integrated solutions to build climate resilience in agriculture and agroprocessing.

The SAIA project has been a positive step forward for the NCPC. Supporting #adaptation in industry, going beyond climate mitigation. This week, our team joined other project partners to see first-hand the evidence of how technology and innovation can help use beer wastewater to produce nutrient-rich spinach. Determination and commitment, supported by the right investment, can lead to great opportunity. https://lnkd.in/dtbqiFq6
Thank you to all the presenters at the Capacity Building Workshop on Climate Adaptation and Resilience in Agriculture and Agro-processing, held in Gqeberha yesterday under the SA Industry Adaptation project. We also appreciate the active audience participation - the success of the workshop would not have been possible without you! Attendees walked away with a deeper understanding of local climate risks and vulnerabilities, practical climate resilient agricultural and processing skills, insights into the role of innovation in addressing climate challenges through local and international case studies - and extremely useful new connections. A summary of key take-aways from the workshop and action points for future collaboration - as well as presentations from the workshop - will be accessible on the SAIA website shortly.
