Estimating Mine-site CO2 Emissions

Published: 28 February 2022 Code: GDRC270722

GlobalData's Estimating Mine-site CO2 Emissions report provides detailed insights on the mine-site emissions. 

Key findings discussed in the report include:

  • For mines without on site power generation the vast majority (approx 95%) of scope 1 emissions arise  from the use of diesel in trucks, excavators and other mining equipment
  • GlobalData has found that by using the volume of material moved, diesel consumption can be  estimated, with a linear relationship
  • For mines where power needs are supplied by on site power, with no power from the grid, then scope  emissions will account for all operational emissions
  • In 2021 construction of a 13 MWp solar farm was undertaken which will increase the mine’s capacity to 64MW, with this backed up by a 4 4 MW/ 4 4 MWh battery energy storage system
  • With the implementation of solar, combined with an expected decline in overburden as the mine develops, then machine-related and power plant-related emissions per tonne of output would be expected to decline
