The global mining industry, accounting for 4-7% of global emissions, is under pressure to decarbonise its operations. Efforts are being made to transition to electric vehicles and renewable energy sources to reduce emissions, with a target of achieving net-zero operational emissions by 2050. Scope 3 emissions, originating from activities not owned or controlled by mining organizations, are a significant contributor to the industry's emissions. Electrification, alternative fuels, renewable energy, hydrogen, and carbon capture are highlighted as key technologies for decarbonisation. While some alternative fuels are already in use, challenges like limited supply and technological advancements need to be addressed for wider adoption by 2030. Hydrogen and direct air capture are seen as nascent technologies that may become commercially viable between 2040 and 2050, offering significant decarbonisation potential. However, barriers such as storage, transportation, infrastructure, and cost hinder their widespread adoption. Deploying electric mining vehicles faces challenges in accessing power and developing suitable charging infrastructure, particularly for larger vehicles. Solutions like automatic connection systems and high-capacity, fast-charging battery packs are essential for the productivity and efficiency of electric mining trucks. Overall, the shift towards sustainable and decarbonised mining operations requires a collaborative effort from industry players to overcome technological and infrastructural hurdles.
