Independent environmental, energy and climate consultancy serving Yemen since 2004
"ENERGY, CLIMATE AND SUSTAINABILITY ADVISORY"
CORAL for Environmental and Energy Services (CORALCEES) delivers integrated renewable energy and energy advisory services to clients across Yemen. This service line brings together three technically interconnected disciplines under a single, consistent advisory offering: renewable energy systems, energy efficiency, and techno-commercial project preparation. The combination of these disciplines reflects how real project work actually works. CORALCEES integrated approach means clients receive consistent, cross-disciplinary advisory from a single team, reducing duplication, improving quality, and accelerating project preparation. As the energy transition and climate agenda reshape Yemen's development priorities, CORALCEES is extending this service line to support clients on energy decarbonisation, climate finance, and sustainability objectives. CORALCEES has delivered energy advisory assignments for oil refineries, industrial manufacturing facilities, water supply utilities, waste management operations, and gas infrastructure projects across Yemen. Each assignment draws on the same body of field knowledge and technical methodology built since 2004.
Operating in Yemen — Our Ground Reality
Delivering energy advisory work in Yemen requires more than technical knowledge. It requires access to reliable primary data from facilities and infrastructure that are operating under difficult conditions, relationships with the government bodies and regulatory authorities that control access to energy sector information, and the operational capability to conduct site visits and field assessments across Yemen safely and effectively.
CORALCEES has operated continuously in Yemen's energy sector since 2004. We have collected primary energy data from industrial facilities, oil refineries, water utilities, and waste management operations across Yemen. We have navigated the regulatory and administrative requirements of Yemen's Ministry of Oil and Minerals, Environmental Protection Authority, and local government bodies on behalf of our clients. And we have delivered technically rigorous energy advisory reports that meet the standards required by international lenders, donor agencies, and private sector investors regardless of the conditions on the ground.
We do not overpromise on timelines or data access. We assess each assignment honestly, plan field activities accordingly, and deliver to the standard our clients require.
A. Renewable Energy, Climate, Sustainability and Energy Efficiency
Climate change and the global energy transition present both critical challenges and significant opportunities for countries such as Yemen. At CORALCEES, we provide expert advisory to help project developers, investors, and government bodies assess these opportunities and implement internationally and nationally accepted solutions.
CORALCEES has delivered renewable energy assessments in Yemen, including solar energy feasibility studies, assessment of renewable energy and carbon emission reduction potential from diesel-operated water pumping systems, carbon footprint estimation for switching from diesel to solar power, energy efficiency reviews for diesel-operated power plants, and greenhouse gas assessments for industrial and refinery operations. This work is grounded in field data collected directly in Yemen and supported by techno-commercial analysis that gives clients a clear, evidence-based picture of the costs, savings, and implementation pathways available to them.
Services We Deliver
-
Renewable Energy Feasibility Studies: Solar, biomass, and hybrid systems assessment through to full project preparation, including assessment of renewable energy and carbon emission reduction potential from diesel-operated water pumping systems in Yemen.
-
Energy Efficiency Reviews: Consumption benchmarking, operational cost reduction analysis, and energy efficiency recommendations for diesel-operated power plants and manufacturing facilities in Yemen.
-
Fuel Switching Feasibility: Technical and economic assessment of transition from diesel to alternative fuels, including heavy fuel oil, gas-operated engines, and solar systems for industrial and utility clients.
-
Carbon Footprint Estimation and Reporting: Calculation and documentation of carbon footprint for industrial facilities switching from diesel to solar or alternative fuels, including solar conversion studies completed for industrial clients in Yemen.
-
Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Inventory and Assessment: Baseline measurement and reduction pathway identification for industrial facilities, oil refineries, and manufacturing operations in Yemen.
-
Climate Finance Advisory: GCF-compliant technical reporting and funding documentation, with the capability to support GEF and IKI compliant funding proposals for climate-related mechanisms available to Yemen as a developing country.
Building on this technical foundation, CORALCEES is developing its advisory capability in sustainability and ESG, supporting clients in Yemen to understand and align with internationally recognized reporting and disclosure frameworks, including the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), and the United Nations Global Compact, together with the technical standards that underpin credible climate performance such as the GHG Protocol for Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 emissions, ISO 14064, ISO 14068-1:2023, and ISO 50001. For organizations working toward net zero commitments, CORALCEES is equipped to provide advisory support aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi).
B. Conventional Energy and Technical Advisory
CORALCEES delivers technical and strategic advisory across conventional energy systems and infrastructure, from oil and gas to power generation. Our team brings direct, in-country experience across Yemen's energy landscape, spanning petroleum, power, and energy infrastructure.
CORALCEES has delivered assignments including feasibility studies for oil refineries in Yemen and Sudan, oil pipeline technical feasibility assessments, energy estimation for waste management facilities, power and energy feasibility studies, and energy regulatory advisory. These assignments demonstrate a technical capability that spans the full spectrum of conventional energy systems operating in Yemen today.
