Mining
Industry Summary
As part of the Minerals and Resources Industry, Mining growth has seen strong growth over the past five years.
Major importing countries, such as China and India, have rapidly industrialised over this period, driving demand for a range of natural resources and industrial commodities.
Traditionally, being recognised as a “dirty” industry, Mines can be hazardous in their operations and damaging to the environment through greenhouse gas emissions.
As the world places a much larger focus on reducing carbon emissions through net zero targets, greater emphasis needs to be placed on the introduction of alternative renewable energy sources.
The Opportunity
The disruption to the power supply is one of the top ten business risks in the Mining and Minerals sector.
The amount of energy required to run mine sites and their facilities is extremely large and the mining sector measures their ‘energy intensity’ per tonne of the product being mined (varied across location, mining type, and processing type).
Power usage isn’t just associated with running mine operations, it’s also an essential supply item to support the enormous mining community such as accommodation, cribs, support services, and administration facilities.
Site infrastructure to support the mining operations is not always centrally located to the mine site. Accommodation, cribs, and support services are generally transportable and when there is no access to mains power, rely on large diesel generators.
REDEI provides renewable energy options such as wind, solar, and even hydrogen as an easily-transported and simple to set-up reliable power source.
Challenges
Control over Energy Supply
Be able to manage the power being supplied where and when during peak periods.
Portable Power across Mine Sites
Portable power supply can be easily and quickly relocated around the site where power is required.
Cleaner & Quieter Power Solutions
Solar power with battery storage provides a cleaner, quieter option to power cribs and accommodation.
Remotely Managed Power
Remote management of your portable power service makes it easier to track and monitor assets.
Net Zero Emission Targets
Meet compliance with industry and government environmental policies and legislation.
Energy Resilience
Continuous supply of reliable, high-quality power when and where you need it on sites.
Solutions
New technology for the capture, storage, and application of power such as wind, solar, hydro, and the more recent inclusion of hydrogen provides far greater advantages to supporting mine power requirements.
REDEI Renewable Energy Solutions provide innovative, turn-key renewable energy solutions to help Mines solve their supply, storage, and continuous energy reliability challenges.
