ENGIEENGIE Accelerating the Decarbonization of the Mining Industry
ENGIE relies on a broad portfolio of expertise to provide the mining industry with a complete range of services, combining technical, economic and environmental performance. We associate know-how in many technical engineering areas to support greenfield and brownfield projects, to provide green, competitive energy supply and improved performance of the mining operations.
In line with the low-carbon economy and social responsibility targets, ENGIE also proposes additional solutions to decarbonize mining activities and facilitate a sustainable integration of mining projects in local communities and environment.
ENGIE also supports industrial actors in their integration of new technologies or their investment in digital transformation by proposing innovative solutions. ENGIE invites you to be part of our open innovation approach.
ENGIE Develops Renewable Hydrogen
Renowned as one of the world’s foremost energy operators and a world leader in the energy transition, ENGIE has the ambition of being a major player in hydrogen.
At ENGIE, we firmly believe that hydrogen is the key that will unlock the full potential of renewables and carbon-neutral energy solutions. It will accelerate the energy transition by allowing various green energy technologies to be used with much greater flexibility.
We are committed to developing solutions based on renewable hydrogen, produced by electrolysis using a green energy supply. Hydrogen is the missing link for a decarbonized ecosystem, allowing for the harmonious progress of cities, territories and societies around the globe.
ENGIE aims at operating across the entire value chain of renewable hydrogen, from carbon-neutral power generation to the three key end uses: mobility, industry and energy storage.
ENGIE will architect and deliver reliable and sustainable green solutions to address its clients’ requirements for more environmentally responsible energy uses.
Specifically, for the Mining sector, green hydrogen can be used as a fuel for the heavy-duty mobility applications, such as mining trucks, locomotives and ore carriers. It can also be used to produce heat and to act as a reduction agent, within mineral processing, such as the production of Aluminium and Steel among others.
Furthermore, it can be used as a feedstock for the production of chemicals used in the mine such as ammonia, hydrogen peroxide for example. And last but not least, by having an integrated hydrogen infrastructure within the mining ecosystem, it will also provide storage and flexibility to its electrical system, enabling its 24x7 decarbonization, while ensuring a reliable power supply.
