Renewable hybrid energy solutions: Decarbonising mines, cost reduction and energy security

Renewable hybrid energy solutions
The mining industry faces a complex challenge: how to provide the essential resources the modern global economy needs while reducing its own environmental impact. The integration of renewables and energy storage into its power system offers a number of opportunities for mines: making production more sustainable and reducing costs, while securing and hedging future energy supply cost. In this webinar, three renewables industry leaders will showcase best practices for the conceptualisation, design, installation and operation of cost-efficient hybrid systems, and their implementation at different mining sites – including Fekola Gold Mine in Mali and Sukari Gold Mine in Egypt. Their perspective ranges from the early planning phase to operations, and an outlook towards the energy future of mining practices in the coming years.

Drowning in solar data, but starving for knowledge?

Alectris

Solar professionals from 32 countries have signed up to attend this webinar demonstrating the worldwide need for effective solar data solutions. Join us for this important conversation! Is your solar PV data providing actionable knowledge to ensure solar profits? How are the different aspects of your portfolio management (e.g. operations, maintenance and asset management) being served by analytics? This webinar addresses the challenges, solutions and case studies related to solar data generation and intelligence for operations, maintenance and PV management. Data options will grow in size and complexity as it’s generated out of 70.8 gigawatts annually by 2018.* This interactive webinar format will give attendees an opportunity to learn from peers as we seek to uncover opportunities to turn solar “big data” into an integrated solar operating expense reducing machine.

American Samoa’s Solar+Storage Microgrid

CESA

The island of Ta’u in the U.S. territory of American Samoa relied heavily on diesel generation to meet its electricity needs until a solar+storage microgrid was installed in 2016. Now, instead of burning through 300 gallons of imported diesel fuel every day, the island’s homes and businesses are almost entirely powered by solar+storage. The 1.4-megawatt PV and 6-megawatt-hour storage system developed by SolarCity can power the entire island for 3 days without sunlight and fully recharge in seven hours, ending the threat of fuel shortages, power rationing, and outages. The solar microgrid is operated by American Samoa Power Authority and was partially funded by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Read a profile of this installation here.

Building the U.S. Offshore Wind Supply Chain SESSION

CESA

The U.S. Offshore Wind Collaborative and Clean Energy States Alliance hosted the first of a three-part series of webinars for state energy and environmental officials on Building the U.S. Offshore Wind Supply Chain, on Wednesday, December 1, 2010, 9:30-11 a.m. ET. For coastal and Great Lakes states working to help launch the U.S. offshore wind energy industry, the offshore wind supply chain represents an important opportunity to stimulate state and regional economic development. As states individually and regionally begin to consider their capacities to establish the complex infrastructure necessary to implement their offshore wind development strategies, there is much to be learned by looking at the experience of the world-leading UK offshore wind market. The first webinar in this series explained the components of the supply chain and lessons learned through the first two rounds of offshore wind development in the UK, providing participants with a comprehensive overview of the UK experience in offshore wind industry supply chain development.
