Have a broad and deep understanding of data, information, and knowledge generation as it relates to the sustainability space:
•Make informed assumption regarding green or sustainability data due to non-availability of data. As example, make appropriate thermodynamic assumptions regarding diesel genset electrical efficiency to feed into the carbon tax.
•Build and maintain a library of information for current and future sustainability application so that information will be available when the time arrives. As example, gather, understand and manage knowledge of carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) projects to feed into a potential future funding policy.
•Generate and disseminate knowledge regarding the sustainability industry developments, what lead to the developments and how will it impact Nedbank in future. As example, understand how carbon offsets feed into distributed ledgers and what the potential energy consumption of this could be.
