A Successful MINExpo 2024

Showcasing Reliable, Low-Emission Power Solutions for the Mining industry

| Events, On Land.

From September 24-26, Bergen Engines participated in MINExpo International 2024, the world’s largest expo for mining equipment, products, and services. MINExpo provided a unique opportunity to showcase our hydrogen-ready medium-speed engines and generating sets, designed to support mining operations with low-emission primary power, backup support, and balancing renewables for continuous operation.
The Benefit of Medium-Speed Engines in Mining Operations

Medium-speed engines offer distinct advantages for mining operations, particularly in remote locations where power reliability is critical. These engines are designed to withstand harsh operating conditions, such as extreme temperatures, dust, and high altitudes, ensuring dependable power generation even in the most challenging environments.

  • Reliability
    Medium-speed engines provide consistent, reliable power to processing plants, accommodation units, and mining operations, which is essential for continuous operation in remote and rugged areas.
  • Flexibility
    They can efficiently operate on a variety of fuel types, including hydrogen blends, making them an ideal solution for adapting to cleaner, low-emission technologies while ensuring dependable performance.
  • Integration with Renewables
    Medium-speed engines have been successfully deployed in microgrid projects, such as our collaboration in Australia, where we balanced solar energy with our engines to create a stable and sustainable power supply for mining operations.

At Bergen Engines, we are committed to supporting low-emission and cleaner mining operations, and are actively researching future fuel options to help the industry transition to more sustainable energy solutions while ensuring the reliability needed for critical mining activities.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by our booth at MINExpo. We appreciated the insightful conversations and the opportunity to connect with industry leaders. We look forward to continuing to support mining operations with reliable, low-emission power solutions.


ABOUT BERGEN ENGINES
Bergen Engines produces medium-speed liquid and gas fueled engines and generator sets are supplied to a broad range of land-based, commercial marine, and naval applications. The Bergen name is a watchword for quality and reliability in its field. The tradition of engineering in Bergen, Norway, dates to 1855 when the original company Bergen Mekaniske Verksted (BMV) was founded. In 1946, the company built its first diesel engine and has since commissioned over 7,500 of its iconic liquid and gas fueled engines. Around half of them are still in operation today; such is the quality and reliability of a Bergen engine. Formerly Rolls-Royce Bergen Engines, on 31st December 2021, the company became part of the Power Solutions Division of the British engineering and industrial group, Langley Holdings plc, together with Marelli Motori, Italy, Piller Power Systems, Germany and GKN Hydrogen, Italy.
