Triple Electric Road Train Trial
, and despite some minor delays, the rubber is now hitting the road. The partnership is a key step by these three companies in addressing emissions reduction in the heavy transport and resources industries.For those concerned, the batteries will be charged using renewable energy and swapped out for maximum efficiency. Batteries will be charged outside the truck and refreshed batteries inserted.
“Vision Electric is one example of how the company is reducing its emissions as part of its Decarbonisation Roadmap,” Oz Minerals CEO and MD Andrew Cole says. “We aim to reduce our emissions by 50 per cent by 2027 and achieve net zero Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 2030. This trial is part of our investment to find pathways to these reductions.” They are guided by their purpose: “Going beyond what’s possible to make lives better.
In Australia, 80% of trucks run within 400 km of a capital city. The plan is to electrify from Cairns to Adelaide with battery swap stations. Australia uses 32 billion litres of diesel per year. One quarter of that goes into trucking. 100% is imported. Electrifying trucks will aid energy security. Not only that, but large battery swap stations can fill during the middle of the day and then use any excess energy to help stabilize the grid.
Qube Bulk’s Director, Todd Emmert, said, “Qube is proud to be working with Janus Electric and OZ Minerals in this important trial. Vision Electric is providing a clean and alternate energy solution for the remote export supply chain and is consistent with Qube’s ambition to be a supply chain leader in the transition to a lower carbon future.”, with the unit focused on the resources sector.
