Improved mine cooling system performance through the control of auxiliary systems
(North-West University, 2012)
Industrial and mining sectors are amongst the largest single energy consumers in South
Africa, making them a primary focus for implementing energy saving initiatives.
Refrigeration systems on mines are responsible for ...
Developing ESCO procedures for large telecommunication facilities using novel simulation techniques
(North-West University, 2006)
Peak electricity demand in South Africa will exceed the available operational generation
capacity in 2007. The state utility Eskom is addressing this challenge, inter aha, with the
implementation of the Demand-side ...
The integrated effect of DSM on mine chilled water systems
(2014)
The national electricity utility in South Africa, Eskom, is currently under pressure to supply
the increasing demand for electricity on a national level. To address this problem in the
short term, Eskom partially funds ...
Sustainable DSM on deep mine refrigeration systems : a novel approach
(North-West University, 2007)
The supply and demand of energy have become a world wide concern. It is predicted that world energy usage could increase from 15TW, to 21TW by 2020. In South Africa the peak demand for electrical energy has already outrun ...
Optimisation of mine secondary fan systems
(North-West University (South Africa)., 2020)
The rising cost of electricity in South Africa has driven deep-level gold mines to save on costs. The optimisation of mine ventilation systems has shown significant potential for energy savings. A literature study showed ...
