The 5th Annual Energy and Mines World Congress took place on November 27-29 at the Hilton Toronto. Since the first event in 2013, Energy and Mines have held 11 summits on alternative energy in mining. They were all in the key global mining markets of Canada, South America, the UK, South Africa, and Australia.

Clearly, this year’s summit aimed to provide energy professionals with a comprehensive understanding of the mining industry. In fact, it included workshops and sessions on the challenges of carbon and energy in mining. Other key themes included the risk associated with greenhouse gas emissions regulations and insecurities around energy use. Also, another theme included the cost and supply as well as the strategic role of carbon emission in shaping energy innovation in mining.

The summit highlighted realizing energy and carbon savings with mining microgrids, digitization, and electrification for integrating renewables and harnessing the potential of digital technology. In addition, the 2017 Agenda also outlined Natural Resources Canada’s Clean Growth in Natural Resource Sectors Program initiative. Moreover, it summarized its funding opportunities to the mining sector to reduce energy consumption and GHG emission.
