Panel: Developing and Delivering on ESG and Climate Goals

Panel: Developing and Delivering on ESG and Climate Goals

Information

The major challenge facing mining companies is defining pathways to meet ESG and climate goals without disrupting existing operations or expansion plans. With future carbon intensity expected to rise for most mining companies, getting to net zero emissions is an uphill battle. This panel will bring together senior mining executives heading decarbonization strategies for mines to discuss how they are navigating these challenges and identifying pathways to zero-emissions mining.

● How are miners navigating the challenges of planning for a decarbonized future?

● What are the most viable options to minimize Scope 1 and 2 emissions in the near-term?

● Alternatively, what solutions are evolving for remote assets with high carbon intensity but shorter mine lives?

● How are mining companies responding to SEC rules on climate-related disclosures and other ESG and climate-related reporting requirements?

● Which disruptive technologies are expected to be critical to the next phase of decarbonization?

● What new approaches are being developed to analyze investments in decarbonization technologies which don’t make economic sense but are necessary to meet targets?
