Rolls-Royce And Flanders Electric Plan To Develop Hybrid Retrofit Solution For Mining Trucks
The title of this post, is the same as that of this Press Release from Rolls-Royce.
This is the first paragraph.
Rolls-Royce and Flanders Electric have agreed to develop a retrofit solution for hybridizing mining trucks with mtu engines, batteries and hybrid control systems, and Flanders drive train solutions. The two companies have signed a Memorandum of Understanding enabling them to offer a scalable retrofit kit for hybridizing mining trucks in a wide range of mining applications.
This looks to be a promising application of a version of MTU Mybrid PowerPack technology, that is being trialled on a Class 168 train on Chiltern Railways.
They are claiming a CO2 reduction of twenty percent.
