里约热奥托在蒙古的Oyu Tolgoi矿区保护国内采购权力

Oyu Tolgoi is currently sourcing power from China’s Inner Mongolian Western Grid via overhead power lines, via a back-to-back power purchase agreement with National Power Transmission Grid JSC, the power importing entity, and the Inner Mongolian Power Company, according to Turquoise Hill.

The mining major’s domestic search for energy is part of an obligation to source power by June 30, 2023 under the 2009 Investment Agreement between Turquoise Hill Resources (which owns 66% of Oyu Tolgoi), the Government of Mongolia and Rio Tinto, and the subsequent Power Sector Framework Agreement signed in 2018.

遵守这些协议,Oyu Tolgoi LLC已提交蒙古政府为Tavan Tolgoi电厂(TTPP)项目的可行性研究,该项目涉及构建300 MW煤电厂。Turquoise Hill说,这个植物位于Umnugovi省的Tsogttssii Soum,占总项目成本估计,高达9.24亿美元,未决审议尚未最终确定的数量。RIO表示,本金额已包含在2020年的2020美元和65亿美元的集团资本支出指南中,每股2021年和2022年。

RIO表示,与蒙古政府同时与蒙古政府协商,RIO TINTO也在进一步源代替国内权力,包括可再生权力部件。

Rio Tinto Copper&Diamonds首席执行官Arnaud Soirat说:“Rio Tinto,Turquoise Hill和蒙古政府都致力于为Oyu Tolgoi矿获得可靠而长期的国内电源,并正在共同努力实现这一目标。“
