The Westin La Paloma Resort & Spa
The world ’ s only global mine electrification event
We are now at a crossroads with surface and underground mining fleets , as the industry works to meet interim reduced emissions and final net zero targets . A big part of that is moving away from diesel to reduced or zero emission alternatives , whether that be battery , hydrogen , e-fuels or hybrid combinations .
Trolley assist and in-pit crushing & conveying , seen as inflexible or costly options until relatively recently , are now ramping up fast due to favourable economics , while ventures like the Charge On Innovation Challenge and the Electric Mine Consortium are using collaboration to overcome issues like charging and infrastructure .
Find out how the mining sector is successfully tackling arguably its biggest ever challenge , in Tucson , in May ! Headline presenters for The Electric Mine 2023 include :
