Energy Policy WA is supporting increasing renewable energy for mining projects in remote locations using local solutions.
Mining companies are committing to ambitious emissions reduction targets, so we put together a summary of the WA mineral sector’s greenhouse gas emissions and energy use.
Remote mines which rely on diesel or trucked liquefied natural gas for power generation are a key focus. We published a case study showing how some mines are deploying renewable generation to save money and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
