"The first electric concrete truck mixer in Australia is currently undergoing
trials in Melbourne, and is expected to deliver significantly lower operating
costs than diesel options, and a lot less noise and emissions.
Holcim, the world’s leading global construction materials and solutions
company, says the vehicle is the first Australian Design Rules (ADRs) approved
and road registered 100% electric concrete truck mixer in Australia, and was
launched under the Sany brand, supported by Putzmeister.
Putzmeister Oceania partnered with Cesco Australia to manufacture an
Australian-made mixer structure on a SY408P Electric Chassis from Chinese
construction machinery manufacturer Sany, the parent company of Putzmeister.
Integrated with locally designed and accepted controls and a mixer drum from
Cesco Australia, the Sany eMixer is powered by a 350kWh battery from CATL.
While Holcim doesn’t offer a driving range number, a similar Sany eMixer offers
a range of around 150 kilometres under routine working conditions."
