Did you think our electric trucks only operate above ground?
Then you should take a look at this.
1,250 metres below the surface in northern Sweden, two Scania 45 R trucks are hauling ore from chutes to crushers deep inside LKAB’s Malmberget mine.
Developed in close collaboration with LKAB, the trucks were tailored for the exact demands of the operation. Just the right battery capacity and payload for the job. No unnecessary weight. No overdimensioning. Just what the operation requires.
That’s the advantage of Scania’s modular approach: purpose-built solutions for demanding operations.
At Malmberget, LKAB moves more than 50,000 tonnes of ore every day, and the electric trucks already operate up to 16 hours daily, with ambitions to move to around-the-clock operations in the future.
As LKAB puts it themselves:
“The future is electric. That we know for sure.”
