July 30 (Reuters) - BHP Group Ltd (BHP.AX) said on Friday it would build two solar farms and a battery storage system in partnership with Canada's TransAlta Renewables Inc (RNW.TO) at its nickel project site in Western Australia.
The global miner said the project will help reduce carbon emissions by 12% compared with 2020 levels at its Mt Keith and Leinster operations, where power is currently being generated through diesel and gas turbines.
The proposed solar farms will also help produce sustainable low-carbon nickel used in electric-vehicle batteries, BHP said, for which the company signed a supply agreement with Tesla Inc (TSLA.O) last week.
