SNAPSHOT OF OUR APPROACH
SASOL’S DECARBONISATION APPROACH FOR A JUST TRANSITION1
THREE-PILLAR EMISSION-REDUCTION FRAMEWORK
TRANSFORM OUR OPERATIONS
REDUCE OUR EMISSIONS
• Short- to medium-term reductions,
including switching to low-carbon
energy sources and additional
process and energy efficiency
improvements.
ADAPTATION RESPONSE
SHIFT OUR PORTFOLIO
• Integrating cleaner alternative feedstocks, such as gas and green hydrogen.
• Employing optimised processes and sustainable carbon feedstocks to
reduce our emissions profile, where viable.
• Collaboratively finding opportunities to beneficiate our concentrated
carbon dioxide (CO2) sources to unlock broader societal value.
• Creating sustainable products for new value pools using our
FT technology.
• Actively reviewing equity in assets not aligned with our long-term strategy.
• Enabling the creation of a new green hydrogen production and market
footprint.
2030 AND 2050 SCOPE 1 AND 2 GHG EMISSION-REDUCTION ROADMAPS
• Assess and define interventions to reduce emissions in the short (up to 2025) to medium term (2026 to 2035) and transform our operations in the medium to long term (2036 to 2050).

Re-baselined our 2017 target base year, removing divestments and including methodological changes; also includes South African Chemicals value chain.
200 MW is Sasol’s portion of the initial procured 600 MW in partnership with Air Liquide.
Having sold part of the Air Separation Units (ASUs) to Air Liquide, 800 MW represents Sasol’s consumption of the total 1 200 MW target for the Secunda site.
An additional ~40 – 60 PJ/a gas.
Reduces scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions.

• Using
quality carbon offsets
as a last resort measure to
complement our three-pillar
emission-reduction framework.
• Developing a just transition
roadmap with prioritised
interventions focusing on
affected workers and
communities.
• Developing a global network
of research, partnership
and community initiatives
to accelerate the change.
• Communicating with our
stakeholders through transparent
climate change disclosures.
