SECUNDA SAF
PROJECT
Sasol has publicly
announced a project
with Linde, Enertrag and
Navitas Holdings (LEN
consortium) project where
the consortium is jointly
developing a proposal to
the German government
to produce 50 000 tpa
of SAF using 400 MW
of renewable energy
supply, a 200 MW Proton
Exchange Membrane
(PEM) water electrolysis
unit and Sasol’s
proprietary FT technology.

Figure: Secunda green hydrogen staircase could grow to between 15 GW and 20 GW of green hydrogen
The LEN project is targeted to achieve beneficial operation by 2024 and this is the first
step in a staircase of projects (see figure) building up to the end-state of fully transitioning
from fossil-fuel hydrogen to green hydrogen for Secunda.
Sasol must expand from the 200 MW electrolyser size in the LEN project to ~ 15 to 20
GW of installed electrolyser capacity to fully satisfy the green hydrogen demand of the
Secunda facility.
ecoFT, together with partners, is evaluating number of PtX opportunities, with focus
on SAF production, in different locations around the world. We are collaborating with
partners, regulators and potential customers to deploy best-in-class technical and
business solutions to reach demonstration and large-scale SAF production as soon as
practically possible.
