Hudbay Announces Release of its 19th Annual Sustainability Report

Image for Hudbay Announces Release of its 19th Annual Sustainability Report

TORONTO, June 02, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Hudbay Minerals Inc. (“Hudbay” or the “company”) (TSX, NYSE: HBM) today announced the release of its integrated annual and sustainability report (“Annual Sustainability Report”). The Annual Sustainability Report provides transparency and progress on key accomplishments and initiatives in 2021 along with goals for the upcoming year and long-term future. Hudbay believes global demand for the metals that it mines continues to rise alongside the need for green technology that will play an essential role in meeting the challenge of climate change.

  • Hudbay is committed to a reduced greenhouse gas (“GHG”) emissions future. The company is currently working toward specific emissions reduction targets to align with the global 2030 and 2050 climate change goals.
  • In 2021, to better understand the nature of the company’s GHG footprint and the best options for approaching and achieving sustainable GHG reductions, Hudbay began work on a 10-year Greenhouse Gas Reduction Roadmap. The roadmap will identify key sources of emissions, including Scope 3 emissions, and the nature of the changes – operational or technical – that will be required to make full or significant changes in each source area.
  • Hudbay’s 2021 Annual Sustainability Report disclosures were mapped to the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) Metals & Mining industry standard and the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD). Hudbay also provides disclosure through the CDP Climate, Water, and Forests questionnaires.
  • To inform Hudbay’s sustainability programs and improve its performance, the company applies and voluntarily supports several international best practice standards, including ISO 14001, ISO 45001, ISO 9001, Towards Sustainable Mining, the Voluntary Principles on Security and Human Rights and International Finance Corporation (IFC) Performance Standards.
  • As a member of the Mining Association of Canada, Hudbay implements the Towards Sustainable Mining (TSM) Protocols at all of its operations, with the goal to maintain a score of “A” or higher for all protocols. In 2021, we achieved a rating of “AA” across all TSM tailings management protocol indicators in both Manitoba and Peru.
  • Hudbay’s Board of Directors commits to provide the Company direction and oversight with the highest standards of ethical conduct. MSCI ranked Hudbay’s corporate governance in the top 10% of all companies it assessed, with an overall ESG rating of “AA”.
  • Hudbay supports the Catalyst Accord 2022 and the 30% Club, both of which call for the advancement of women in business, and its Board has adopted a stand-alone Diversity Policy. This policy seeks to ensure a diverse representation of women and designated groups (Indigenous peoples, persons with disabilities and visible minorities) among the members of the Board and senior management.
  • In 2021, the company saw a 7% decrease in energy intensity per tonne of ore processed, and over 50% of Hudbay’s indirect energy consumption was from renewable sources.
  • The Peru Business Unit establishes annual key performance indicators across three areas – environmental management, environmental quality and sustainability. In 2021, the business unit exceeded not only its overall target but also every sub-indicator target.
  • Hudbay’s Manitoba operations use renewable hydroelectricity sourced from Manitoba Hydro to run the processing plants, which keeps GHG emissions and intensity relatively low. Hudbay’s Flin Flon team achieved first place at the 59th annual Manitoba Provincial Mine Rescue Competition in May 2022.
  • Hudbay recognizes the opportunity that the mining industry has to positively contribute to the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) that are a part of the UN’s 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. There are several SDGs for which the company considers the industry a natural fit for taking on a leadership role, and others where the company feels it can progress by working alongside government, civil society and other organizations.

“Environmental, social and governance (ESG) considerations have always been fundamental to our business; it’s not new for us,” said Peter Kukielski, Hudbay’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “Throughout 2021, we continued to successfully navigate through the COVID-19 pandemic, maintaining continuous operations at all sites. We look at 2021 as a year of execution and achievement, after making significant investments in exploration, development and productivity improvements. We are now at an inflection point where our stakeholders can reap the rewards of growing production and cash flow while we continue to advance our “triple A” organic copper growth pipeline. It is a tremendously exciting time for Hudbay, and I look forward to achieving our many sustainability and growth goals in 2022.”

Though Hudbay is proud of its achievements in 2021, the company has set targets for 2022 to further the path of continuous improvement. In health and safety, the company aims to match or improve on its three-year total recordable injury frequency average of 1.4. In Peru, Hudbay will strive to avoid operational shutdowns due to community/political activity and complete exploration agreements to enable land access at regional deposits near the Peru operations. The company is adopting Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions targets intended to achieve a 50% GHG reduction by 2030 and its intention to be net zero by 2050. The company is also designing the Copper World project in Arizona in compliance with 2030 and 2050 GHG objectives. To ensure Hudbay is up to date with leading governance policies, the company is completing a comprehensive review/update of global anti-bribery and corruption compliance program.

Details of the company’s annual and sustainability results can be found on Hudbay’s website at: https://hudbayminerals.com/disclosure-centre/default.aspx and the full Annual Sustainability Report can be downloaded here.

Renu Energy Solutions Supports Wild Hope Farm’s Journey to Net Zero with New Solar Installations

Image for Renu Energy Solutions Supports Wild Hope Farm’s Journey to Net Zero with New Solar Installations

Two new solar arrays, composed of 62 panels, will increase Wild Hope Farm’s clean energy generation capacity and support their net zero energy goals

CHARLOTTE, N.C., June 02, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Renu Energy Solutions, a locally-owned and operated solar installer in North Carolina and South Carolina, today announced the details of a new commercial solar installation at Wild Hope Farm, a USDA-certified organic vegetable and flower farm focused on regenerative agriculture based in Chester, SC.

The Renu Energy Solutions team installed two separate solar arrays on the greenhouse/shed and farmhouse at Wild Hope Farm. The greenhouse array is 14.625 kW, composed of 45 REC panels while the farmhouse array is 5.525 kW, composed of 17 REC panels. In total, the 20.15 kW installed by Renu across the two systems at Wild Hope Farm will provide an estimated 26,000 kWh of energy annually.

Along with Renu’s installations, an additional 15.34 kW was installed across the greenhouse and farmhouse roofs by Alder Energy in 2017. This brings the total size of these arrays to 35.49 kW. In combination, the PV systems installed by Renu and Alder will offset more than 90% of the total energy consumed by the Wild Hope Farm greenhouse/shed and farmhouse buildings.

These new installations are the latest effort within Wild Hope Farm’s broader mission to incorporate renewable energy technologies and sustainability practices into their operations and facilities. Clean energy generated by the solar arrays the Renu team has installed will be essential in the Farm’s efforts to achieve net-zero energy consumption.

“Renu and Wild Hope Farm share a common vision to care for our local community through sustainability and environmental stewardship,” said Matthew Culley, Senior Consultant at Renu Energy Solutions. “We are honored to be the installation partner for these solar arrays, and proud to partner with Wild Hope Farm in their goal to achieve Zero Net Energy on the farm.”

Wild Hope Farm’s sustainability focus reaches beyond its growing fields and solar installations, extending to the back acres and wooded areas of the property where the team is transforming invasive grass pastures into native prairies. Through this restoration project, Wild Hope Farm is creating a habitat for imperiled bird, rabbit, and pollinator species.

“With intentional planning of our land and infrastructure, the Wild Hope Farm team aims to use zero net energy in our farm operations area within the next few years,” said Katherine Belk, Operations Manager at Wild Hope Farm. “From our conservation growing practices to our 35.49 kilowatt solar PV array, to our passive solar greenhouses, we are always thinking about new ideas for conserving and producing energy on the farm.”

As Renu and Wild Hope Farm continue their collaborative efforts to promote sustainable solutions in the local community, Renu will also serve as a sponsor for the Farm’s 2022 Music Fest, taking place on June 4.

“We’re a small team with big ambitions and are very proud to share the evolution of our progress with the community and other local organizations like Renu,” continued Belk. “Following the completion of these new solar installations, we’re especially proud to have Renu as a sponsor for this year’s Music Fest, where we promote education, exploration, and celebration centered around nature.”

About Renu Energy Solutions
Renu Energy Solutions is a locally-owned and operated solar installer, with projects across both North Carolina and South Carolina. To date, Renu has completed over 4,500 high-quality solar energy installations. Every Renu installation is more than just a clean energy system, it’s also a tool to empower home and business owners to take charge of their energy future. To learn more, please visit: https://renuenergysolutions.com/
