A vehicle used for transporting and mixing concrete is a concrete mixer truck. The concrete is mixed in it using a spinning drum that is included. There is no need for a diesel engine because the vehicle is powered by an electric motor. As a result, the electric concrete mixer truck is less noisy when in use and is more environmentally friendly.
At building sites in cities where air pollution and noise levels are of particular concern, electric concrete mixer trucks are the best option. Furthermore more effective than a diesel engine, the electric motor uses less fuel and requires less upkeep.
All things considered, using electric concrete mixer trucks is a terrific way for construction companies to lessen their environmental impact and increase the effectiveness of their operations.
Global electric concrete mixer truck market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
The first all-electric ready-mix concrete mixer truck from Volvo Trucks has been delivered. The Volvo FMX Electric is delivered to Cemex, a producer of building supplies, who utilises it in a ready-mix concrete facility in Berlin-Spandau.
Based on a Volvo FMX EV, the vehicle that has just been delivered is the result of a deal that Volvo and Cemex reached. At the time, Cemex did not identify any specific vehicle orders, only that it aimed to “build the first zero-emission fleet.
Volvo employs four battery packs with a combined energy content of 360 kWh for the electric concrete mixer. Depending on the application, this should be adequate for a full day’s work or it can be supplemented by charging during regular breaks, according to Volvo.
Two engines with a combined output of 330 kW are used to power the vehicle. The high-voltage batteries in the vehicle are also used to power the nine cubic metres concrete mixer truck.
