Electric construction machines are machines that are powered by an electric motor instead of conventional combustion engines. These include equipment such as electric excavators, wheel loaders, cranes and bulldozers.
Electric construction equipment
Mobile construction machinery can be divided into various categories. They range from conventional wheel loaders and huge mobile cranes to highly specialised vehicles developed for a wide variety of applications. Demanding environmental conditions and a lack of energy infrastructure are influencing the ramp-up of electrified vehicle concepts, whose share is growing steadily. With robust connectors for power and signal applications, HARTING supports this development and contributes to the decarbonisation of the construction machinery sector.
Electrification in construction: challenges, opportunities and smart systems
Stricter emission standards, rising fuel prices and rapid technological development have made the electrification of construction machinery an increasingly important trend in the construction industry.
While a lack of energy infrastructure and high environmental requirements pose key challenges for the electrification of heavy mobile construction machinery, the proportion of electrified vehicles is rising steadily in the smaller machine segment.
More advanced technologies are also leading to increasing connectivity within machines. Various systems, supported by powerful sensor technology, monitor and control the different machine elements, thereby increasing efficiency.
