  1. Net zero for Sasol is to significantly reduce emissions to the point where only hard-to-abate emissions remain or are zero. Any residual emissions will be neutralised using Carbon Dioxide Removals (CDR).
  2. Mozambique, Natref and some Other strategic business units and Functions are excluded from our scope 1 and 2 GHG target for 2030, however Natref's products are included in our scope 3 target.
  3. Includes emissions from pipeline operations.

  1. See section on decarbonising our operations and risk and opportunities, pages 23 - 28 and 13 -15.
  2. Re-baselinedour 2017 target base year, removing divestments and including methodological changes; also includes South African Chemicals value chain.
  3. 200 MW is Sasol's portion of the initial procured 600 MW in partnership with Air Liquide.
  4. 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.
  5. An additional ~40 - 60 PJ/a gas.
  6. Reduces scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions.

CCUS7. Targets include CO2, methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O), representing 95% of total emissions.

8. Baseline 2019, Category 11 emissions, sales from Sasol and Natref's products included, representing >80% of total scope 3 emissions.

9. Net zero ambition follows a strict mitigation hierarchy prioritising on-site reduction before offsets.

10. In the best case scenario the fossil-fuel-free vision materialises, with no need for CDRs, while the worst case net zero scenario leaves ~ <35% hard-to-abate residual scope 1, 2 and 3 (Category 11) emissions, which will require CDRs to neutralise.

11. See pages 42 - 44 for adaptation approach.
