Greenhouse gas mitigation
Mitigation of green house gases is imperative if the global average temperature is to be curtailed to a two degree Celsius increase compared to the pre industrial era. The activities and focus of this area are in energy efficiency, renewable energy technologies and its applications, sector wise emissions, inventory of GHG emissions at unit level such as, in processes, factories, business, buildings, institutions; sector wise studies, such as transport, electricity generation, industries, agriculture, commercial, and wastes; regional level looking at cities and provincial level emissions and mitigation options; national level analysis of policies and mitigation options; Clean Development Mechanism; life cycle analysis of systems and technologies; and technology needs assessment and technology transfer issues.
