Clean Long-duration Energy Storage ideal for Renewable Energy Plus Storage Solutions in Mining Microgrids
Reliable, cost-effective energy supply 24×7 is an essential resource for successful mining operations, whether grid-connected or off-grid. In Africa, reliability of utility-sourced electricity is becoming more and more of a challenge, while off-grid diesel generation and the cost and logistics of fuel supply is increasingly problematic. And in both scenarios, the CO2 footprint and increasing carbon tax needs to be considered. The mining industry is therefore exploring the option of solar energy to partially substitute energy from current sources; however, solar energy on its own cannot be utilised 24×7 in…
