Under the "double carbon" goal, the electrification of mining machinery will open a market of 100 billion

Green transformation track

New energy mining machinery manufacturing capacity has expanded significantly

In the face of the strong demand for electric mining engineering vehicles at home and abroad, many construction machinery manufacturers are concentrating on the research and development of new energy electric mining engineering vehicles and intelligent mining equipment on the power change circuit, expanding production capacity to meet the rapid growth of market demand, and improving the level of China's industrial chain supply chain.

In December 2021, Huai Chai Car, a well-known engine manufacturer at home and abroad, developed a mining "perpetual motion machine" - a three-axis pure electric wide-body mining card WT90EA with a load of 60 tons. In addition to being driven like a traditional mining car, this wide-body mining card can also be remotely controlled to achieve driverless driving. Huai Chai Car launched WT90EA pure electric driverless wide-body mining card in time, reflecting Huai Chai Car has accurate judgment on the market and excellent product strength.

Not only that, Shandong Linong Group's MTE86 off-highway electric wide-body dump truck, Zoomlion's 8 series of 15 new energy products, Sany Heavy Industry's new flagship product electric iSEE2 and other electric new energy engineering vehicles came into being, further improving the number of electric engineering vehicles.

In addition, China has also made many achievements in the construction of comprehensive solutions for green mines and the application of 5G technology, such as:

On October 12, 2021, Baidu Apollo released the unmanned demonstration application plan for mining trucks. The unmanned demonstration application results of mining card unveiled by Baidu Apollo are jointly built with Huaneng Yimin Coal and Power Company. The product has completed the day and night operation test of Yimin open-pit mine. It realizes "vehicle-shovel alignment", autonomous navigation, autonomous unloading, and active obstacle avoidance, and can carry out unmanned driving at multiple forks and complex road conditions, and complete accurate unloading in designated areas such as waste dumps, making the functional types and efficiency of mine automation operations in the industry leading position.

Sanhe Intelligent New launched the world's first 5G+ intelligent drill rig, and its 5 categories of more than 20 types of mining equipment fully demonstrated Sanhe Intelligent's leading core strength in green manufacturing and intelligent manufacturing industry; Luoyang Molybdenum Industry also hand in hand with Huawei, the first in the country to apply 5G technology in the field of unmanned mining. The application of 5G network in the original intelligent mining equipment gives full play to the characteristics of 5G ultra-high speed and ultra-low delay, and completely solves the technical bottleneck of signal transmission in the special complex environment of the mine.

At present, in order to speed up the promotion of green low-carbon transformation, construction machinery manufacturers to improve their awareness of responsibility, towards the intelligent, unmanned, green direction to increase efforts to expand the production of new energy electric mining engineering vehicles, many companies have begun to plan to deploy large projects.

In January 2022, Chery new energy mining card project plans a total investment of 850 million yuan, the products are mainly pure electric and hydrogen fuel mine wide body dump trucks, heavy-duty dump trucks, tractors, etc. After the completion of the first phase of the project can form 5,000 units of new energy mining vehicle production capacity; It is expected that the market in 2022 is expected to exceed 10,000 loaders, mining wide body dump trucks, dump trucks and other pure electric construction machinery, and exceed 50,000 units in 2023; Lingong Heavy Machinery will build a large excavator and new energy mining truck project in the intelligent equipment City, and it is expected to achieve an annual output of 13,000 new energy mining trucks and 3,000 ultra-large excavators after the completion of the project.

It can be seen that China's construction machinery manufacturers, starting from meeting the actual needs of users, have been constantly exploring new products, new technologies and new directions on the mine green transformation track, which will promote the global mining machinery industry pattern to be reshaped.
