Presentation

Charging electric construction machines from a solar-powered energy hub

Electrically powered construction machinery is emission free and sustainable if charged using green energy resources such solar and wind energy. In this case study, a solar-powered charging hub is presented, for overnight charging of construction machinery, from crawler cranes and wheel loaders to rollers. The presentation will cover sustainable charging of electric construction machinery, a DC charging hub with mobile solar feeding, and power congestion management inside the charging hub.
