Timely information needed in order to meet bureaucratic and industry standards

摘要

A major issue facing larger Australian mining houses is the insufficient amount of data available regarding power use, particularly when it comes to adhering to Federal Government policy on energy efficiency opportunities. As well as trying to reduce their energy consumption, mining and mineral processing companies often struggle with predicting power use and are often penalised for under or over forecasting it. What makes this estimation particularly difficult, according to one Brisbane-based company, is a lack of timely information.
