I-Antofagasta ukuvavanya ukusetyenziswa kwe-hydrogen kwizixhobo zemigodi
Iprojekthi yokulinga ukuqhubela phambili ukusetyenziswa kwe-hydrogen kwizixhobo zemigodi emikhulu iye yasekwa kumgodi wobhedu i-C entinela.(Umfanekiso ngoncedo lweMinera Centinela.)

I-Antofagasta (LON: ANTO) ibe yinkampani yokuqala yezimayini eChile ukuseta aiprojekthi yokulinga ukuqhubela phambili ukusetyenziswa kwe-hydrogenkwizixhobo ezinkulu zemigodi, ngakumbi iilori ezithuthayo.

Ulingo, olusekwe kumgodi wobhedu wenkampani iCentinela kumantla eChile, yinxalenye yeprojekthi ye-HYDRA yeedola ezisisi-1.2 sezigidi, ephuhliswe ngurhulumente wase-Australia, iziko lophando lwezemigodi eliseBrisbane iMining3, Mitsui & Co (USA) kunye ne-ENGIE.Iarhente yophuhliso yaseChile uCorfo ikwaliqabane.

Inyathelo lokuqala, inxalenye ye-Antofagastaisicwangciso sokulwa nokutshintsha kwemozulu, ijolise ekwakheni injini ye-hydrogen-based hybrid eneebhetri kunye neeseli kunye nokuqonda amandla okwenene ento yokutshintsha idizili.

"Ukuba lo mqhubi wenqwelomoya unika iziphumo ezincomekayo, silindele ukuba neelori zokutsala zisebenzisa i-hydrogen kwiminyaka emihlanu," utshilo umphathi jikelele weCentinela, uCarlos Espinoza, kwingxelo.

Icandelo lezemigodi eChile liqeshe ngaphezulu kwe-1,500 iilori zokuthutha, nganye itya iilitha ezingama-3,600 zedizili ngosuku, ngokutsho kwesebe lezemigodi.Izithuthi zenza i-45% yokusetyenziswa kwamandla oshishino, ukuvelisa i-7Bt / y yokukhutshwa kwekhabhoni.

Njengenxalenye yoBuchule bokuTshintsha kweMozulu, i-Antofagasta ithathe amanyathelo okunciphisa iimpembelelo ezinokubakho zemisebenzi yayo.Ngo-2018, yaba yenye yeenkampani zokuqala zemigodizibophelele kwiinjongo zokunciphisa ukukhutshwa kwerhasi yegreenhouse (GHG).yeetoni ezingama-300,000 ngo-2022. Enkosi kuthotho lwamanyathelo, iqela alizange lifezekise injongo yalo kwiminyaka emibini edlulileyo, liphantse layiphinda kabini, liphumeza ukukhutshwa kweetoni ezingama-580,000 ezicuthiweyo ekupheleni kuka-2020.

Ekuqaleni kwale veki, umvelisi wobhedu udibanise namanye amalungu angama-27 eBhunga laMazwe ngaMazwe ngeMigodi kunye nezinyithi (ICMM) ukuba bazibopheleleInjongo yokukhutshwa kwekhabhoni engathanga ngqo kunye ne-zero ngo-2050 okanye kungekudala.

Umgodi odweliswe eLondon, onemisebenzi emine yobhedu eChile, ucebaiqhube umgodi wayo waseCentinela ngamandla ahlaziyekayo kuphelaukusuka ngo-2022 ukuya phambili.

I-Antofagasta yayisayine ngaphambili isivumelwano kunye nomvelisi wombane waseChile uColbún SA ukunika amandla umgodi wobhedu wase-Zaldívar, intsebenziswano ye-50-50 kunye ne-Barrick Gold yaseCanada, ngamandla avuselelekayo kuphela.

Inkampani, uninzi lwentsapho yaseChile yaseLuksic, enye yezona zityebi zelizwe, yayinayondinethemba lokuba i-Zaldívar iguqulelwe ngokupheleleyo kwizinto ezinokuhlaziywa kulo nyaka uphelileyo.Ubhubhani wehlabathi ulibazise isicwangciso.

I-Antofagasta iguqule kwangaxeshanye zonke iikhontrakthi zayo zokubonelela ngombane ukuze isebenzise kuphela imithombo yamandla ecocekileyo.Ekupheleni kuka-2022, yonke imisebenzi emine yeqela iya kusebenzisa i-100% yamandla avuselelekayo, yatsho.
