The plant, with more than 6,600 solar panels, is designed to produce about 4,200 megawatt-hours of electricity annually. The plant is projected to cover a quarter of Diavik\u2019s power needs during closure work. These panels will generate energy from direct sunlight and light reflected from snow. The initiative will reduce the mine\u2019s diesel usage by around one million litres annually. Supported by C$3.9 million in government grants, the plant is expected to be fully operational in the first half of 2024. This move aligns with Rio Tinto\u2019s objective to halve its Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2030. <\/p>\n\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mining.com\/rio-tinto-to-build-canadas-largest-solar-plant-to-power-diavik-mine\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.mining.com\/rio-tinto-to-build-canadas-largest-solar-plant-to-power-diavik-mine\/<\/a><\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=&#8221;Button Navs&#8221;
