With details of B2Gold Corp. Fekola Mine solar project, this presentation from last week’s Energy and Mines Africa Summit by Martin Schlecht from Suntrace (Dornier Group) provides some excellent advice for mines looking to take control of their energy issues.
His suggested project approach for adding renewables to mines:
– Seek independent expert guidance
– Assess your options and needs
– Develop your mine-specific optimized solution
– Plan for expansion of RE share
– Procure through a competitive process
– Implement (in stages)
