Sasol produced first green hydrogen from Sasolburg electrolyser in June

JSE-listed energy group Sasol reports that it produced its first green hydrogen in Sasolburg in June, during the commissioning phase of a project to repurpose an operational electrolyser to use renewable electricity to split water into hydrogen and oxygen.

However, consistent production is anticipated only in early 2024 once the 69 MW Msenge Emoyeni Wind Farm, in the Eastern Cape, begins supplying the facility. “This is a huge step forward in the energy transition, not just for Sasol but also for South Africa,” Grobler said during a presentation of the group’s 2023 results.Engineering News“There is a demand for green hydrogen to decarbonise the mining industry, and in other mobility applications.”

Secunda refinery’s post-2030 output cut as Sasol struggles to pin down gas supplyEnergy and chemicals group Sasol says its continuing to assess several technology and feedstock solutions to bolster post-2030 liquid fuels and chemicals volumes at its Secunda refinery, in Mpumalanga, while still meeting its commitment to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 30% by the end of the decade. None of these alternatives have advanced to maturity, however, and the JSE group has therefore revised the refinery’s post-2030 yearly production guidance to only 6.7-million tons from the 7.5-million-ton-plus output achieved previously.
