Engines and beyond: Volvo Penta drives next steps in electrification at Bauma 2025
At Bauma 2025, Volvo Penta will highlight its battery-electric platform for construction and mining, emphasizing its battery energy storage (BESS) subsystem. Volvo Penta delivers dependable power through its core pillars: proven combustion engines, purpose-built electric drivelines, and integrated battery energy storage subsystems. Supported by connected solutions and a strong service network, its comprehensive portfolio can help customers make the right decisions in their energy transition.
Helmed by its brand tagline, ‘Made to Move You’, Volvo Penta’s approach at Bauma 2025 is about keeping construction and mining operations moving—productively and competitively through the energy transition. With a customer-focused approach, Volvo Penta delivers tailored expertise while leveraging the Volvo Group’s strength to scale when needed.
In supporting electrification, Volvo Penta will showcase their scalable and modular BESS subsystem that enables OEMs and system integrators to seamlessly integrate and deploy electric power to meet the ever-exceeding energy needs in construction and mining.
High-performance and versatile battery-electric platform
The same high-performance, energy-dense battery technology used in Volvo Penta’s electromobility drivelines now powers its BESS subsystem —designed for reliable performance, durability, and resistance to dust and corrosion in tough environments. Volvo Penta’s BESS subsystem enables system integrators and BESS manufacturers to create tailored solutions for everything from mobile, temporary power applications to permanent infrastructure at electric sites. This provides a flexible, robust and scalable foundation that customers can seamlessly adapt to their business needs and meet growing energy demands while maintaining productivity and uptime.
“Our modular and scalable battery-electric platform is designed to support the electrification ecosystem—combining high-performance drivelines with the crucial energy storage subsystems for efficient charging and operation in construction and mining. We want to meaningfully collaborate with our customers on value-added customization that will enable them to stay productive, efficient, and future-ready,” says Hannes Norrgren, President of Volvo Penta Industrial.
