\"Hybrid<\/p>\n

Australia’s Resolute Mining Limited is partnering with Aggreko on a new hybrid modular power station project at Resolute’s Syama Gold Mine in Mali, West Africa that is expected to slash Syama\u2019s electricity costs by approximately 40%. <\/p>\n

Resolute announced yesterday it had signed a Heads of Terms Agreement for the project – basically an agreement about an agreement – which will be funded and operated by Aggreko.<\/p>\n

Stage 1, expected to be completed next year, will be comprised of 3 Modular Block generators (30MW capacity total) and a 10MW\/5MWh Y.Cube battery storage system.<\/p>\n

The new generators will run on intermediate fuel oil (IFO 180), a blend of distillate and residual fuels that Resolute says will increase efficiency by 30%.<\/p>\n

The second stage in 2022 will consist of another 10MW Modular Block and construction of a 20MW solar farm. So, in total – 40MW thermal generation, 20MW solar energy generation and 10MW\/5MWh of battery storage.<\/p>\n

What About Emissions?<\/h2>\n

IFO 180 apparently generates a similar level of carbon emissions as diesel <\/a>(but is higher in sulphur) when used for electricity generation, but Resolute says<\/a> the new system will reduce carbon emissions compared to current levels by approximately 20%. Resolute is currently running a 28MW diesel power station at Syama.<\/p>\n

Y.Cube Battery Storage<\/h2>\n

The Y.Cube is a “plug and play” lithium-ion battery system developed by Younicos, which was acquired by Aggreko a couple of years ago. The Y.Cube is 1MW capacity and housed within a standard sized shipping container.<\/p>\n

Australian Miners\/Mining Operations Turning To Renewables<\/h2>\n

There’s been plenty of activity on the off-grid renewables front over the last couple of years as mining companies discover the cost savings renewable energy can provide. Emissions reduction is a nice bonus for them (and for everyone); particularly with shareholders becoming more concerned about climate change.<\/p>\n

Just last week, a 23MW hybrid generation project<\/a> consisting of a 4MW solar farm, 16MW of gas and 3MW diesel generation capacity commenced operations at Gold Fields’1<\/a><\/sup> Agnew Gold Mine in Western Australia. The second stage, expected to be completed around the middle of next year, will see 18MW of wind generation, a 13MW battery and an advanced micro-grid control system integrated. After completion, renewables are expected to provide 50% of the Agnew gold mine\u2019s power requirements.<\/p>\n

Aggreko is currently constructing a hybrid power station at Gold Fields’ Granny Smith mine<\/a> in Western Australia that will feature 8MW of solar power generation, along with a 2MW \/ 1MWh battery energy storage system and 24MW of gas generation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
