Key Element 1 - Setting the Performance Benchmark: Using a National GHG Emissions Trajectory Range to measure the collective outcome of all mitigation actions will be measured. Key Element 2 - Identifying desired sectoral mitigation contributions: Defining desired emission reduction outcomes for each significant sector and sub-sector of the economy based on mitigation potential and options, science, evidence and cost and benefits assessment. Key Element 3 - Defining Carbon Budgets for significant GHG emitting sectors and/or sub-sectors: Adopting a carbon budget approach to provide flexibility and least-cost mechanisms for companies at company level desired emission reduction outcomes. Key Element 4 - Mitigation Plans: Requiring companies and economic sectors or sub-sectors to prepare and submit mitigation plans to achieve the desired emission reduction outcomes. Objective 2: Effectively manage inevitable climate change impacts through interventions that build and sustain South Africa’s social, economic and environmental resilience and emergency response capacity. Key Element 5 - The use of different types of mitigation approaches, policies, measures and actions: Developing and implementing a wide range and mix of approaches, policies, measures and actions that optimise outcomes, job creation and other sustainable developmental benefits. Key Element 6 - Using the Market: The deployment of a range of economic instruments to support the system of desired emissions reduction outcomes, including pricing of carbon and economic incentives, use of emissions offset or emission reduction trading mechanisms. 1/4/2020 Key Element 7 - Monitoring and Evaluation: A national system of data collection to provide detailed, complete, accurate and up-to-date emissions data in the form of a GHG Inventory and a Monitoring and Evaluation System. 26 South African Energy Development Institute South African Energy Development Institute
