White paper: Digging beyond the buzz word
In recent years, climate change has become a focal point within the mining industry, prompting discussions on the industry's necessary responses.
How can the transition towards a clean and renewable energy future be achieved? Within this white paper we trace the evolution and current status of electric drive technology for hydraulic mining excavators. Utilizing specific business cases from more than 40 years of experience and underlining these within a practical use case at the Barrick Gold Corporation Lumwana mine site in Zambia, we demonstrate that electric drivetrains represent a vital and effective alternative for achieving carbon emission reduction goals with up to 95% emission reduction while remaining economically viable and contributing to TCO reductions up to 50%.
This white paper is an essential guide for anyone who wants to go beyond buzzwords and look at concrete solutions.
Join us as we explore the profound implications and practical applications of the electrification of hydraulic mining excavators.
