At the end of October 2021, two experts of the MIBRAG Group visited our long-term client in Russia who operate an IPCC at its open pit operation.
During 20th to 24th of September 2021 MIBRAG Consulting International joined the initial business contact event for Kasachstan. The event, organised by DREBERIS and funded by the Federal Ministry for Economy and Energy, focussed on mining, raw material and the energy transition.
MIBRAG Consulting International GmbH was engaged to carry out a technical audit for a large Russian hard coal producer from the Kemerovo region (Russia).
At the beginning of August 2021, Jörg Krummsdorf (operator at MIBRAG) was engaged to transfer practical knowledge and to support the colleagues in the operation of IPCC in a Russian open pit.
Another project is the construction of a wind farm with 17 powerful wind turbines in close proximity to the Schleenhain opencast mine. The wind farm with a capacity of 102 MW and an annual electricity generation of around 230 GWh is expected to deliver electricity from 2024.
In a country such as South Africa that relies heavily on coal production for electricity generation, the quality of the fuel can determine the difference between a fully operational power plant and one that’s crippled by breakdowns or – at best – running at below optimum capacity.
From March 3 to March 24, 2021, Kursk hosted an international conference and technical visit with the topic “Mining industry in Russia and the CIS: construction and modernization”. Mikhailovsky GOK acted as a strategic partner. The event was held with the support of the Kursk Region Administration and the personal participation of the Governor of the Kursk Region, Roman Starovoit.
