Streamlined supply chain

Our off-highway electrification solutions provide you with an efficient, simplified supply chain and a complete electric driveline system – rather than just individual components.

Safety as a core value

Because we’re part of the Volvo Group, safety is one of our core values. Our secure systems and processes are designed to prioritize safety throughout every stage of your production and operation.

Battery-electric advancements

We further the value chain of the Volvo Group and adapt their proven electromobility platform in Volvo trucks and construction equipment and adapt it into different industrial applications.

Reliability

We utilize Volvo Group’s tested and proven solutions, which are already successfully operating in various markets. This enables you to experience high-quality, reliable delivery, availability, and redundancy.

Aftermarket support

Through our off-highway electrification services, you can access specialized dealer support, remote diagnostics, complete driveline fault tracing, and thorough documentation.

Collaborations

We partner with others who want to drive off-highway electrification forward. Take advantage of our partnerships and acquisitions with leading companies, and benefit from integrated technology.

Off-highway electrification applications

Many material handling applications, such as terminal tractors, can benefit from electrification due to their consistent, localized usage patterns. This type of application facilitates fast battery charging and can effectively reduce emissions in high-impact areas.

Case with TICO

A forklift is well-suited for electrification due to its frequent start-stop operations and indoor-outdoor use. An electric forklift also allows you to benefit from zero tailpipe emissions and lower maintenance due to the requirements of electric powertrains.

Case with FTMH

Electrifying a reachstacker can be beneficial due to its continuous operation over predicable paths. A reachstacker can enable you to adopt efficient electric material handling operations and charging cycles.

Electrifying a drill rig can help reduce emissions at environmentally sensitive drill sites. Contribute to improved air quality for employees with lower emissions, and experience reduced operational costs through enhanced worksite efficiency and reduced fuel usage.

Electrified feed mixers can improve air quality by eliminating exhaust emissions – particularly in enclosed environments common in various farming segments – which can positively affect the well-being of operators and surrounding livestock.

Questions & Answers

Our system offers OEMs a variety of flexible installation options with configurable software and components, including battery packs, electric motors, junction boxes, and power electronics from our portfolio. Volvo Penta also provides custom-designed harnesses tailored to each vehicle.

The range of electric vehicles varies depending on the application and nature of use – for example, the amount of installed energy on the vehicle, and the environmental conditions in which the vehicle will operate. For instance, a terminal tractor's operation range might vary from 4 hours to 10 hours depending on the energy on board, carried loads, climbed ramps, drivetrain efficiency, and other factors such as operating temperatures, climate pre-conditioning of the vehicle before work starts, and auxiliary usage.

Safety is a core value for Volvo Group and Volvo Penta. It plays a crucial role in the development of our power solutions. Leveraging the extensive experience from Volvo Group in hybrid and electric vehicles, particularly from Volvo Buses and Volvo Trucks, we incorporate these learnings to enhance our system designs. Our approach with system suppliers allows us to integrate robust safety features across all segments.
