Focus Topic: Mining companies can use sustainable solar energy

5/26/2020

 
Picture
It's summer and construction season is here, which means high electricity bills from crushing, screening, washing and other mining activities. It’s also a good time to think about the benefits of solar for mining companies exploring ways to trim costs or become more sustainable.  That’s why the IAAP’s Sustainability Committee wants to help educate member companies about the benefits of solar energy.

Energy is a major expense for mining. Converting the sun’s bountiful energy is a great opportunity. Follow the link below and learn the key factors mining companies and other industries should think about when considering to install solar.

BENEFITS OF SUSTAINABLE SOLAR ENERGY
 
We began this endeavor during the IAAP convention in March where member companies like Thelen Sand & Gravel and Tuscola Stone explained how they are taking advantage of solar energy production on their mine sites. (Download the presentation)  And member companies Tick Tock Energy and Borrego Solar Systems can help you utilize solar energy on your properties.
