Track 1: Industrial
Electrification of Heavy Mobile Non-Road Equipment

The work performed by heavy machineries in ports, industrial facilities construction, mining and agriculture requires delivery and short-term storage of dense energy reserves at the point of operation to literally move the earth and perform other material movement operations needing heavy horsepower prime movers. Duty cycles are long, payloads are heavy and environmental conditions are harsh requiring this mobile equipment to carry its energy source along with it, historically in the form of energy-dense liquid fossil fuels. As a result, these have been challenging sub-sectors of industrial mobility to decarbonize via direct electrification with battery-electric options. The challenges and opportunities for direct and indirect electrification of heavy mobile equipment will be discussed in this panel.
