Video : local electrification through mining royalties
The electrification of local communities is presented as a development imperative. The “Mining – Energy Nexus” project offers a concrete model for achieving this goal : it recommends earmarking a share of the mining royalties that accrue to local administrations to the benefit of decentralized electrification projects. This video highlights the importance of tailoring solutions to the specific needs of each village. It demonstrates that, despite higher upfront costs, the investment in hybrid systems is more than offset by operational savings and long-term environmental benefits.
