Fortescue advances decarbonisation with new renewable energy and battery storage projects

Fortescue Ltd. has outlined progress in its Climate Transition Plan, which aims to eliminate Scope 1 and 2 emissions from its Australian terrestrial iron ore operations by the end of 2030. The company is investing in renewable technologies, including the acquisition of Nabrawind to support future wind projects in the Pilbara region. Current initiatives include the operation of a 100MW solar farm at North Star Junction, supported by a 250MWh battery energy storage system, and the ongoing construction of the 190MW Cloudbreak Solar Farm. Fortescue has also received approvals for the up to 644MW Turner River Solar Farm, with construction expected to begin later in the year, and has a 440MW solar farm at Solomon in the pipeline. Additional measures include the commencement of the Nullagine Wind Project and the deployment of electric mining equipment across multiple sites. These actions form part of the company’s broader decarbonisation strategy.
