Air Liquide SA said Tuesday that alongside Sasol Ltd., they have
signed two power purchase agreements with TotalEnergies SE for the
long-term supply of renewable power to Sasol's Secunda site in
South Africa.
The industrial-gases company said the agreements for 260
megawatts of renewable energy at the Secunda site add to the 220
megawatt power purchase agreement made in January with Enel Green
Power.
The latest agreement will see TotalEnergies and its partner
Mulilo create a local majority-owned wind project with a
140-megawatt capacity and one local majority-owned solar project
with a 120-megawatt capacity, Air Liquide, which produces oxygen at
Sasol's site, said.
The projects are expected to be operational in 2025, subject to
regulatory and financial approvals, the company said.
Sasol and Air Liquide have endeavored since April 2021 to
procure a total of 900 megawatts of renewable energy for the
Secunda site.
Additional power purchase agreements are being negotiated, it
said.
