A hybrid electric source
Eramine’s electric system is hybrid. Part of it uses solar energy and the rest utilizes fuel. After the installation of 300-kw capacity solar panels in 2021 that are sustaining the camp and the training center, we estimate that fuel savings will reach 40% by 2030, which will reduce our carbon footprint. In addition, solar energy is a sustainable energy source.
Different actions have been implemented for the energy efficiency of the site. We have invested in Power Plant on site and a gas compression plant 320 km away. The gaz motor that produce the electricity and the exhaust gaz are used to co-generate steam and hot water, because of the technology we have chosen. By this way we use at it best the energy content of the gaz.
