🌍 Powering the Future: The Intersection of Energy and Mining ⚡ The power and mining industries are at a crossroads, balancing the need for energy with the imperative of sustainability. 🔋 On one side, we see a modern power plant transitioning to renewables, symbolized by wind turbines and solar panels. This shift represents a commitment to cleaner energy, driven by innovation and technology. ⛏️ On the other side, the mining industry continues to play a vital role in extracting the raw materials needed for our modern world, from construction to technology. However, it also faces environmental challenges that must be addressed through responsible practices. 🚀 The Future: As these two industries evolve, there is a growing emphasis on collaboration, innovation, and sustainable practices. The journey from traditional energy sources to a greener future requires effort, commitment, and a willingness to adapt. Let’s embrace this opportunity to innovate and transform the way we power our world. 🌱 #Sustainability #EnergyTransition #MiningIndustry #RenewableEnergy #FutureOfEnergy #Innovation #Millenniumimpexprivatelimited #MIPL

The mining and metals sector plays a significant role in global carbon emissions, contributing 4-7% of greenhouse gas emissions. Emissions are categorized into Scope 1, 2, and 3, with diesel in mobile equipment and non-renewable electricity being major sources. With pressure to decarbonize operations increasing, efforts include adopting low-carbon tech, enhancing energy efficiency, and integrating renewables. The sector's shift towards sustainability requires innovation, regulatory support, and industry collaboration. #decarbonization #mining #metals #renewables #sustainability #carbonemissions #regulatory #Lithium #Nickel #Gold #Coal.

The challenges of fully electrifying mining are unlocking great innovations transitioning to sustainable energy sources and storage, leading to efficiencies and improvements in how we optimise / sync power demand and power supply. Ampcontrol is truly at the forefront of this, and these innovations will translate to other sectors like agriculture and the manufacturing industry. Come see us today and tomorrow at Energy and Mines, and then later this month at the Electric Mine 2024, to hear about the solutions we are implementing. #electrifyeverything #renewableenergy

Sibanye-Stillwater takes a giant step towards sustainability! 🌱 The South African mining leader has signed a 20-year PPA to secure 140 MW of wind power from the Umsinde Emoyeni wind farm. This agreement, in partnership with ACED and EIMS Africa, aims to decarbonise their operations and significantly reduce emissions by 24%. 🏭 With the project expected to be operational by Q4 2026, this initiative is part of Sibanye-Stillwater’s commitment to meet 70% of its electricity demand from renewable sources by 2027. Their goal is to achieve carbon neutrality by 2040.

The 8th Annual Energy and Mines International Summit will be held on 7-8 May in Perth, WA. Meeting 2030 and 2050 decarboninsation targets for mines depends hugely on reducing diesel from fleets. This is where Ampcontrol comes in! In leading the global energy revolution, Ampcontrol is utilising smart people, state-of-the-art facilities and advanced manufacturing capabilities to develop progressive energy solutions to help the mining industry decarbonise operations. Ampcontrol has developed electrification solutions, including electric vehicle packages, and stand-alone power systems and microgrids, as well as supporting the industry with cable and onsite services, that minimise the necessity for carbon fuels, thereby reducing emissions and providing sustainable solutions across the mining industry. Ampcontrol Principal Renewable Solutions, Matt Rule, will provide insights into the energy requirements for the fleet transition alongside Fortescue, Agnico Eagle, Freeport-McMoran, Newmont, and Climatech Zero. Bringing together 700+ mining and decarbonisation experts who, during the event, will benchmark strategies for meeting decarbonisation goals in mining and discuss the challenges for reaching net zero targets.  For more information visit 👉 https://lnkd.in/dfh55F5

Transitioning to net-zero has prompted the mining sector to evolve its practices as it navigates changing regulations and customer expectations. In a recent McKinsey & Company interview, Prakashim Moodliar, Executive Head of Projects at Anglo American Platinum, discussed the potential benefits of renewable technologies, their impact on local communities, and the road to sustainability in the energy transition.
