Thungela, Council for Geoscience to collaborate on emission reduction technology research
Thermal coal producer Thungela Resources and the Council for Geoscience (CGS) have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to advance research into emission reduction technologies, focusing on carbon capture, utilisation and storage.
Through the partnership, the two organisations will collaborate on critical activities, including geological mapping, climate change research and groundwater modelling, to produce impactful research and practical solutions that address both environmental and economic challenges.
“We are committed to embracing technologies that reduce emissions from coal combustion, ensuring a sustainable global future. As a coal producer and exporter, we recognise the importance of adapting and mitigating emissions. Through this partnership, we will contribute to climate change efforts by developing and implementing geoscience-based solutions that support national priorities and international climate agreements,” says Thungela CEO July Ndlovu.
"Today’s signing represents a collaborative effort to drive research, development and implementation of geoscientific programmes. The CGS is excited about this development, which brings together the expertise and resources necessary to tackle one of the most pressing challenges of our time: carbon emissions.
“By combining our expertise, CGS and Thungela are setting the stage for significant advancements in carbon capture and sustainable resource management. This partnership reflects our joint dedication to addressing climate challenges and promoting scientific progress that benefits South Africa and beyond,” adds CGS CEO Mosa Mabuza.
