Abstract

The Cleaner Production (CP) approach has brought gains to large energy intensive industries, which have the capital, technical know-how and the organisational capacity for implementing new and innovative techniques. However, the introduction and implementation of CP in Small and Medium Industries (SMI) needs to be done based on an integrated approach of seven focal areas. These are: integrated pollution prevention and control, interaction between energy, environment and climate, development of technology based benchmarking, identification and co-ordination of various internal and external actors, capacity building, technology development and transfer, and financial packaging. These issues have been shown to be important to ensure that CP introduction in SMIs succeeds.
