Mining Industry Overview
The mining market is expected to reach over $2775.5 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 6.7%!
The use of renewable energy is helping mining companies reduce power costs and control emissions in the mines. As the solar or wind projects are built close to the mine sites, the cost of connecting to the power grid is also reduced. Site-appropriate renewable energy sources are reliable, consistent, and also economical. BHP and RioTinto have started using renewable energy sources in their mines. According to a report published by EY, RioTinto aims to generate 10% of 20MW – 25MW power demand from renewable energy in one of their mines and expects to reduce its diesel use by approximately 4 million liters, and its CO2 emissions by 12,000 tons. Also, in 2020, Rio Tinto approved the development of a large-scale solar photovoltaic and battery storage system for its western Australian Koodaideri mine. The solar plant will be one of Australia's largest photovoltaic installations at a mining site once completed. According to a report by Fitch Solutions, renewable energy used by mining companies from various sources include 57% solar thermal, 37% of solar PV, and 4% of wind energy.
