Abstract
Based on 74 ore-processing plants and their energy meter's coordinates in Zaruma-Portovelo, we determined the energy consumption profiles for each ore-processing plant following the methodologies of Gonçalves (2016) and Cabezas (2016). In doing so, the total energy consumption in comminution processes was calculated. Data show a rising trend in energy consumption in ore processing in Zaruma-Portovelo. The data can be of immense use in designing sectoral reforms for transparency in the mining sector and developing cross-sectoral coordination between ARCOM and ARCONEL. The data can also help the state agencies in assessing the quantity of ore processed and preventing the leakage of revenue from the extractive sectors (Gaudry et al., 2020). Finally, the scientific community may benefit from this data, particularly those working on energy consumption, efficiency, and its forecasts in extractive sectors (Gaudry et al., 2020).
Highlights
Based on 74 ore-processing plants and their energy meter’s coordinates in Zaruma-Portovelo, we determined the energy consumption profiles for each ore-processing plant following the methodologies of Gonçalves (2016) and Cabezas (2016)
From a technical report published in 2014 by the Ecuadorian National Institute of Geological Mining and Metallurgical Research (INIGEMM), we identified an initial sample of 65 potential ore-processing plants in Zaruma-Portovelo
See: Total energy consumption Having obtained the above-mentioned data we proceeded it to determine the energy consumption profiles for each ore-processing plant following the methodologies proposed by Cabezas et al [1], Comisión Chilena del Cobre (2014), and Gonçalves [4] (See: Energy consumption in comminution) Empresa Eléctrica Pública Estratégica Corporación Nacional de Electricidad (CNEL-EP), https://geoportal.cnelep.gob.ec/cnel/ Agencia de Regulación y Control de Electricidad (ARCONEL), Avenida Naciones Unidas 7–71, Quito 170,506, Ecuador Energy meters and their coordinates are hosted under the public enterprise CNEL-EP geoportal: https://geoportal.cnelep.gob.ec/cnel/, under the layer and attributes table
