To work in partnership with business to build a better, more efficient and secure energy future for South Africa

• Objective
  • In the current context of Department of Energy’s (DoE) imminent mandatory energy efficiency reporting regulations, energy security challenges and the impacts of energy price increases on company operational costs, South African companies need to manage their energy demand and meet both country and value chain obligations to reduce their carbon emissions. At the same time the implementation of energy efficiency measures can improve business productivity, competitiveness and innovation as well as access to energy efficiency financial subsidies and tax incentives.
    
    In line with this, the PSEE seeks to support companies towards achieving:
    
    – Energy savings
    – Energy intensity reductions
    – Implementation of projects which will result in the reduction of Greenhouse Gas emissions
    – Improved economic competitiveness through resource and process efficiency
    – Investment leveraged from the private and public sectors through capital investment in energy efficiency projects
    – Social benefits such as job creation and skills development relating to energy efficiency
    – Increased awareness of energy efficiency
