Industry Partnerships

The Industrial Technologies Program (ITP) Industries of the Long term partnership can be a collaborative work amongst the U.S. Division of Power and business. ITP gives cost-shared funding to chosen R&D projects that address industry-defined priorities as well as national goals for energy and the environment.

Mining Market from the Long term Partner

The National Mining Association (NMA) represents the interests in the mining market before Congress, the Administration, federal agencies, the judiciary and the media.

Their membership includes more than 325 corporations involved in all aspects with the mining business including coal, metal and industrial mineral producers, mineral processors, equipment manufacturers, state associations, bulk transporters, engineering firms, consultants, financial institutions and other companies that supply goods and services to the mining industry. NMA offers a forum for all the diverse segments from the mining business to come together and advocate public policies designed to protect and expand opportunities for domestic mining.

Vision

The Mining Business in the Future was started in June 1998 when the Chairman in the National Mining Association and the Secretary of Power entered into a compact to pursue a collaborative technology research partnership. After the Compact was signed, the mining business developed its vision document, The Long term Begins with Mining, A Vision of the Mining Sector of the Long term, in September 1998. This vision document lists long-term goals for the mining business. Stemming from this vision document, targeted technology road maps were developed that describe pathways of research to achieve the vision goals.

The Mining Industry from the Long term Vision, The Future Begins with Mining (September 1998), could be viewed online. A printable copy with the Mining Vision can also be downloaded.

Roadmap

Following publication with the Vision, the mining industry developed technology road maps to identify critical pathways for the R&D needed to reach their goals. These road maps aided both market and government in making decisions to support R&D unfavorable to the industry’s vision from the long term.

U.S. Mining Sector Power Bandwidth

ITP relies on analytical studies to identify large energy reduction opportunities in energy-intensive industries and uses these results to help guide its R&D portfolio. The power bandwidth illustrates the total energy-saving opportunity that exists in the sector if the current processes are improved by implementing more energy-efficient practices and by using advanced technologies. This Mining Sector Energy Bandwidth Study, June 2007, was conducted to assist ITP in identifying energy-saving opportunities in coal, metals, and mineral mining. These opportunities were analyzed in key mining processes of blasting, dewatering, drilling, digging, ventilation, materials handling, crushing, grinding, and separations.
