Work is underway on what BHP claims is one of the world’s largest off-grid mining solar and battery energy storage systems. Under the Northern Goldfields Solar Project, TransAlta is building a 27.4 MW solar farm at Mt Keith, 10.7MW solar farm and a 10.1 MW battery at Leinster, which will be integrated into the remote power grid and result in an estimated reduction of 54,000 tonnes CO2-e per year.
