2021 sets the tone for Nouveau Monde Graphite Inc. to become carbon-neutral. Nouveau Monde s mission is to “produce the greenest advanced graphite materials with a carbon-neutral footprint for a sustainable world and the company is continuously striving for excellence in minimising greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and climate impact. A key piece of this GHG-mitigating ambition is the development of 100% renewable electric mining operations on its Matawinie Mine in Saint-Michel-des-Saints, Canada. When operational, this will result in 82% less direct GHG emissions from mining. To accelerate its deployment, Nouveau Monde is collaborating to develop electric systems and infrastructure for heavy vehicles to be used in opencast mining. Moreover, the use of hydroelectricity as the exclusive energy source significantly reduces the future carbon footprint of Nouveau Monde s battery material.
