Project Overview

Transitioning high-emitting facilities: a complex systems approach

June 2023 | Decarbonisation analysis and support, Projects

This project adopts a complex systems perspective to address the challenges faced by high-emitting facilities in decarbonising their operations. By recognising these facilities as deeply integrated within their value chains, the project provides a holistic approach to understanding and managing their transition risks. Key elements of the project include:

  • Developing a robust facility-level decarbonisation study methodology.
  • Conducting an in-depth analysis of Sasol’s Secunda and Sasolburg operations.
  • Creating guidance to help investors engage with companies operating high-emitting facilities, enabling better management of transition risks across investment portfolios.
  • Performing a high-level assessment of transition options and risks for South Africa’s leading industrial emitters.
