sasol new energy Sasol New Energy (SNE) was created to focus on new technologies that can be integrated with  our core technologies to result in a lower greenhouse gas footprint. In an effort to reduce  production of CO$_{2}$ in our operations and integrate new technologies into our Fischer-Tropsch  processes, SNE will explore renewable and lower-carbon energy options such as solar, biofuels  and biomass, as well as nuclear, hydro and natural gas. Carbon capture and storage (CCS) will  be targeted to sequester the CO$_{2}$ produced through the Fischer-Tropsch process. 66 In 2010, Sasol commissioned two gas turbines using natural gas from Mozambique. Replacing coal-based  electricity with that produced from natural gas allows the group to reduce its carbon dioxide emissions.
