Mining

Delivering Reliable Power, from Prospecting to Production

Mining operations are often situated far beyond the reach of the traditional power grid, making a reliable on-site energy source essential. Diesel generators have long been the default, but come with rising fuel costs, logistical burdens, and high maintenance needs. NOMAD provides a mobile, powerful, and cost-effective energy solution that cuts fuel consumption and delivers reliable power wherever it's needed.

The Challenge: Powering Off-Grid Mining

Securing reliable and cost-effective power is a primary operational hurdle for mining projects:

  • Extreme Locations: Mines are frequently located in remote, hard-to-reach areas where grid electricity is unavailable.
  • High Fuel & Maintenance Costs: The expense of transporting diesel and maintaining generators 24/7 drives up operational costs.
  • Variable Power Needs: Power requirements can change drastically, from the initial prospecting phase to full-scale operations.
  • Sustainability Goals: The industry faces growing pressure to reduce its environmental footprint and cut emissions.

The NOMAD Solution: Flexible and Efficient Power

NOMAD's mobile energy storage systems are engineered for the demanding needs of the mining industry:

  • Slash Fuel Consumption: In a hybrid setup with a diesel generator, NOMAD can reduce total annual fuel costs by up to $200,000 and maintenance costs by $51,000. The generator runs efficiently to charge the battery, which then provides silent, emissions-free power.
  • Pair with Solar: Create a completely emissions-free, low-cost power system by pairing NOMAD with solar PV arrays.
  • Scalable Power: Deploy exactly the amount of power needed and easily scale up as the mining operation grows.
  • Reliability On-Demand: Deliver consistent power for critical operations, ensuring productivity and safety.
