Aether workshop in South Africa

13 October 2017

This week, Aether went to Pretoria, South Africa, to work with our local collaborators and present the latest development of our National System for Monitoring, Reporting and Verifying (MRV) greenhouse gas emissions for the Republic of South Africa.

Presenting at the South African Department of Environmental Affairs, the inter-departmental workshop provided an opportunity to present the developed National System to internal stakeholders, make linkages to other governmental departments, and outline potential data supply agreements.

At Aether, we have long-running experience of working with MRV and developing greenhouse gas inventories at national as well as local scale. In the last ten years, we’ve worked extensively with both developed and developing economies in Africa, Europe, South America and the Caribbean to provide a solid understanding of national greenhouse gas emissions, and meet reporting requirements.

To learn more about our work in Africa or our work on Monitoring, Reporting and Verification systems, please do not hesitate to contact; Emma.Salisbury@aether-uk.com

Don't just take our word for it...

“ Aether delivered training workshops and generated learning materials for our SSN members, providing technical content in a manageable and comprehendible format. We particularly benefitted from their extensive knowledge and ability to interpret the needs of our members into the training materials. ”

“ If we have a need for any more reports in the future Aether will be first on my list. ”

Alan Hardy, Kyson Design

“ From their winning bid to final delivery, Aether's work with North Norfolk District Council was positive and thorough. They brought a clear understanding of the challenges local authorities face regarding carbon emissions and quickly understood the unique nature of the Coastwise project. Communication was effective, and the outcomes combined a depth of research with real-world utility for the council's activities around carbon emissions and mitigation. ”

Alastair Zangs, North Norfolk District Council

“ We have been collaborating with Aether for several years, and our projects have greatly benefited from it. Aether staff are very knowledgeable, professional and flexible - and last but not least, very friendly and a pleasure to work with. ”

“ Both the face-to-face training and the online version have been of high quality, with dynamic methods and a practical orientation that have allowed students to reach a solid knowledge base. The products have been delivered within the stipulated deadlines with an excellent quality and the team has always shown willingness to make adjustments according to the requirements of CONAF. We are very satisfied with the work. ”

Javier Cano Martín, Professional Unit for Climate Change and Environmental Services, CONAF (National Forestry Corporation), Chile

“ I must congratulate each of you for your professional and tireless efforts. Let me point out that this has been the 'neatest' in-country review expert review team I have coordinated, and it has been a real pleasure. ”
