Holcim is expanding its electric fleet with the deployment of 600 new LiuGong machines, including wheel loaders, excavators and trucks. Holcim is a global leader in innovative and sustainable building solutions with net sales of CHF 27 billion in 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Holcim purchased the first LiuGong electric wheel loaders in 2021 and the machines are now in use across Holcim\u2019s Ready-Mix operations. Their high battery capacity of more than 400 kilowatt hours and an efficient electric drive system allow the loaders to run for more than a full shift of 8 hours. This capacity can be extended further through the use of opportunity-charging between shifts or during breaks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOn our mission to decarbonize building, we are scaling up sustainable and efficient transportation across our operations. This new fleet of zero-emission vehicles is advancing our goal of cutting 30% of Scope 1 emissions by 2030,\u201d said Rajesh Surana, Chief Procurement Officer, Holcim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
