Sasol Chemicals and Mission Possible Partnership (MPP) announced on April 25 a collaboration to advance a series of potential projects with aims including the use of hydrogen as a source of energy. The projects will be based at Sasol’s facility in Lake Charles, La.
Other aims for the projects include carbon capture, use and storage and sustainable aviation fuel production. Sasol and MPP’s ultimate goal is to advance these projects to final investment decision (FID). To that aim, funding has been attained from the Bezos Earth Fund, which will support up to 10 of projects, should they prove viable.
“Decarbonizing the chemicals sector is crucial to reaching U.S. climate targets,” said Bryan Fisher, Director of Hubs at the Mission Possible Partnership. “We look forward to helping Sasol realize its decarbonization ambitions at its Lake Charles facility and the community benefits offered by clean energy development, such as job creation and cleaner production processes.”
Sasol Chemicals is a global solutions provider that is established in 118 countries around the world. MPP is an alliance of companies that seek to achieve net zero emissions by 2050.
