In 2025, Sasol achieved an ~20% Group net reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions from our 2017 baseline. This was driven by a combination of factors:
The reduction was primarily driven by a decline in Scope 1 emissions, partially offset by an increase in Scope 2 emissions due to higher electricity imports as internal electricity generation decreased.
Sasol’s optimised ERR demonstrates our ability to lower our carbon footprint while continuing to deliver value. In 2025 we made key adjustments to the roadmap that allow us to maintain stable production while improving emissions performance. These include:
At the same time, we remain transparent about our intent to continue using coal well into the future, given its role in maintaining energy and operational stability during this complex transition. Our approach reflects a deliberate balance between decarbonisation, affordability, and the need to sustain our operations and broader socio-economic commitments as we progress toward a lower-carbon future.
CMD 2025 revealed an optimised ERR with revised decarbonisation levers and strategies, aligned to Sasol’s climate commitments and operational realities.
