#### Challenge

Belleview Gold's high grade gold mine in WA was attempting to decarbonise its operation. During periods of high renewable energy generation, the site aimed to have "engine-off" periods, supplying its needs with 100% renewable sources.

 

#### Solution

An 88MW hybrid power station, with 26.2MW of solar being supplied by 5B Mavericks.

 

### Benefits of 5B Maverick for off-grid and remote mines

#### Reduced decommissioning costs

In comparison to typical single axis tracker and fixed tilt array solutions, the ability to fold up and relocate 5B Mavericks allows faster and safer system decommission at the end of the project life - or to extend asset life by re-using the Maverick elsewhere. 

“An increased focus on medium and long-term environmental impacts, including decommissioning costs, is accentuating the benefits and cost competitiveness of 5B’s redeployable Maverick solution. 5B Mavericks can be packed up as easily as they are unfolded which is also reducing risk for power suppliers by enabling them to preserve the value of solar assets acquired for hybrid solutions like this for longer,” 5B’s Chief Strategy Officer, Nicole Kuepper-Russell.
