<p>South Africa is a major carbon dioxide emitter due to its coal-dependent power generation. This is making the country to face significant challenges in reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Carbon Dioxide Capture and Storage offers a promising solution, but its success depends on the effectiveness of CO₂ transportation systems to connect emission sources to storage sites or usage sites. This study explores the opportunities and feasibility of CO₂ transportation in South Africa using PESTLE analysis, focusing on pipeline and modular transport systems (trucks, trains, and ships). Pipeline transportation is identified as the most economical method for large- scale CO₂ movement, leveraging South Africa’s experience with gas pipelines, such as the Mozambique-South Africa Gas Pipeline. Modular transport, particularly trucks, provides flexibility for retrofitting existing industrial plants with carbon dioxide capture technologies. The closeness of emission sources to storage or usage sites may face challenges such as high costs, infrastructure development, safety concerns, and the need for substantial investment. Developing CO₂ transportation infrastructure could support South Africa’s climate goals and Just Energy Transition. Looking at tax incentives, it is recommended for industries to start investing in retrofitting technologies. More industry dialogue is critical for widespread carbon dioxide capture and transportation adoption.</p>
