White Paper: Power at the end of the tunnel – Electrifying underground mining

Blog

Sandvik and Partners in Performance have joined forces and developed this white paper to support mining companies in assessing the opportunities that BEVs present for current and future underground operations and help accelerate the industry’s journey to Net Zero.

In October 2021, the International Council of Metals and Mining (ICMM) announced its commitment to reach net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 or sooner. As a result, new technologies are being considered to support this mandate. Low-cost renewable energy and rapid improvements in battery technologies have created opportunities for electrification and decarbonisation within underground mine operations – in which underground Battery Electric Vehicles are expected to play a key role.
