FOOTNOTES
1. Product 3 external sales 3 the boundaries of this figure only include a product that is destined for sale to Sasol customers and
does not include a product utilised or sold between the Sasol Group of companies.
2. Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions have been calculated and reported in accordance with the GHG Protocol (www.ghgprotocol.org)
and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) 2006 Guidelines. In our GHG measurements, we have included 100%
of the emissions for the following joint ventures (JVs): Natref in South Africa and Gas Sourcing & Operations in Mozambique. Data
for those JVs where we do not have a significant influence or operational control is not included. An external assurance provider
has once again independently verified our direct and indirect emissions levels.
3. The increase in emissions is attributed to the inclusion of methane and nitrous oxide from stationary emissions. South African
regulations impose mandatory reporting of nitrous oxide and methane associated with activities, through the utilisation of nonSasol specific emission factors. In light of the requirement for clear and comprehensive emission inventories, a decision has been
made to include these emissions.
4. Methodological changes and emission factor updates resulted in marginal changes in emission profile.
5. Methodological changes associated with revised coal bed methane emission factors necessitated a restatement of previously
reported emissions. Calculation error corrected for 2020.
6. Methane emissions associated with fuel oil combustion previously excluded for 2020.
7. Methodological improvements as well as detailed site assessments allowed for more comprehensive reporting of emissions.
8. Regional Operations and Asset Services (ROAS) steam production commenced in 2023.
9. Reporting improvement to reflect latest values and ensure concise and comprehensive reporting.
10. Increase attributed to inclusion of steam obtained from the joint venture at Lake Charles that was previously excluded.
11. The sum of greenhouse gas emissions from methane, nitrous oxides and carbon dioxide (scope 1 only) are expressed as CO2
equivalents emitted and reported as direct scope 1 CO2e.
12. Off peak demand consumption values were adjusted to Energy Consumption (all).
13. Green certificates issued to Eurasia resulting in reduction of non-renewable electricity and scope 2 emissions.
14. The increase in scope 2 emissions is attributed to inclusion of steam purchased from the joint venture with LyondellBasell.
15. GHG intensity CO2e/ton of product meant for external sale.
16. This intensity provides insight into the total emissions per ton of product produced irrespective of the final destination of these
products. This provides a more representative view of site intensity irrespective of the nature of the operation. The total
production values utilised for this calculation is based on operational management control and is in line with Sasol9s Sustainability
Data reporting philosophy which excludes subsidiaries and joint ventures at which Sasol has no management control.
17. Based on Sasol's equity share in investments and aggregated by product type or sector.
