|
| Integration methodology |
|
|
| Crucial Interfaces |
|
|
| Construction / Commissioning |
|
|
| Operation / Performance |
The 6,270 m² field is too small to be operated as an Energy Service Company
|
|
| Recommendations |
Solar energy as an energy source within the mining industry has a great future due to both economic and environmental benefits
