Mining in a low emissions economy

Western Australia’s mining and resources sector has a critical role to play in the State’s policy commitment to achieve net zero emissions by 2050. The potential is enormous, as are the challenges to the sector.

But where are the opportunities? What should be prioritised? And how do we turn ambition into action?

These questions are addressed in this foundational analysis undertaken by the Clean Energy Finance Corporation (CEFC) and the Minerals Research Institute of Western Australia (MRIWA) and drawing on the expertise and insights of specialist consultants, ENGIE Impact.

Presented here in a suite of three mutually interlinked documents, the results of this analysis – and its recommendations for the future of industry value – are packaged ready to support the planning and decision-making of executives, operational leads and sustainability teams across the mining sector.
