Energy has become a major operational cost and strategic focus for the African mining sector. Faced with significant power disruptions and energy price hikes, mines are now reviewing their power options for grid-tied and remote operations and assessing their options for renewables to reduce energy costs and secure power supplies. Following last year’s sellout event, the Renewables and Mining Summit & Exhibition in Johannesburg on July 1-2 will bring together the African mining sector and international renewables industry to discuss solutions for addressing mining’s energy challenges across the region.

13.30 SESSION 2: EXPLORING ThE FEASIBILITy OF RENEWABLES FOR GRID-TIED SITESAll across Africa mines need more energy at affordable prices. South African mines have experienced aggressive load shedding and opera-tions across West Africa are dealing with utilities unable to meet their energy requirements affordably. Supply constraints are often exacerbated by high electricity rates which are driving mines to consider supplementing their power needs with renewables. This session will focus on how alternative energy solutions can play a role in addressing grid supply concerns and the practicalities around implementing these solutions.

13.30 CASE STuDy: PROGRESS REPORT: ASSESSING SOLAR OPTIONS TO ADDRESS GRID-PERFORMANCE CONCERNSAcacia Mining (formerly African Barrick Gold) has three sizable gold mines in Tanzania and is making progress in considering solar PV options for its Bulyanhulu mine to address grid-performance challenges.
