The site has a reasonable solar resource and proximity to biomass waste streams and hence solar PV, BESS, and bioenergy options were considered. The analysis considered various PPA terms to allow for the developer to understand the energy costs they are likely to face, and how these costs change as demand for energy varies throughout the mine life.
