Power and temperature control are vital to protect the safe and efficient operation of mining projects. Any interruption to supply can have far reaching effects.

Mining can be a dangerous occupation and one of the most demanding sectors. On -site power is needed for a wide range of equipment, from electric shovels and draglines to heating, cooling and ventilation equipment. It ’s also essential above the ground for accommodation, offices, storage facilities and site security. But many mines are in remote locations that are way beyond the reach of national power grids. Energyst puts real energy into providing the safe and reliable power supply needed to keep the mine working efficiently and cost effectively.
While understanding that safety must come first in any mining environment. It’s something that Energyst adheres to not only in everything they do, from specialist equipment to emphasising on safety training for all engineers, installation and operation teams, but also committing to following Quality, Safety, Security and Environment (QHSS E) standards, programmes and procedures in all aspects of their work, because the safer they are, the more confident clients become from their products and services.
