Mining activities are energy-intensive and rely largely on fossil fuels to meet their energy demands. This exposes the …-competitive source of power generation. This has resulted in a business case for the adoption of solar and wind energy solutions in the … mining sector, to reduce costs as well as carbon footprint of operations. The sector’s energy transition also presents an …

Energy generated from land-based wind power is expected to play a crucial role in the decarbonisation of the economy … these challenge the sustainability of the whole renewable energy transition. We suggest a modelling system for spatial … allocation of wind power plants (WPPs) by combining an energy system model with a comprehensive GIS analysis of WPP sites and …
