Paul Douglas, managing director at Rokbak talks about how alternative power will change how both OEMS and dealers do business

Boulder-based Namaste Solar will design and build the project which will use Trimble’s solutions during construction, including robotic total stations for surveying and site layout

U.S-based mobile battery manufacturer will help Sunbelt Rentals’ customers decarbonize construction sites with its 100% electric solution

Alternative power solutions all come with their own set of challenges, suggesting it might be a while before industry weans itself off diesel

Similar to gasoline engines, the 3.8-liter hydrogen engine offers spark ignition while packing a punch at 85 kW – which is also the power required for a 45 kVA generator

Hydrogen-combustion engines can be developed quickly, starting with existing diesel engines, and can be installed in the same chassis as diesel counterparts

Caterpillar’s largest-ever CONEXPO-CON/AGG exhibit investment pays tribute to those who build while showcasing new equipment, technology and services

Caterpillar said the investment demonstrates its commitment to support customers in energy transition with lower-carbon power technologies for hybrid and full-electric machines

Immersion cooling is expected to extend battery life in a safer, higher-performance excavator with lower noise and torque at any speed

Volvo Construction Equipment plans nearly $37 million in facilities, automation and ergonomics upgrades to its articulated-hauler factory to allow for ‘a more sustainable construction future’

Wacker Neuson exec says equipment manufacturers need to work together on charging technology to achieve widespread acceptance with consumers

The only emission from the fuel cell stack is water, and experts say hydrogen might be an as-good or better alternative to diesel power than battery-electric solutions

Future heavy-duty vehicles may not all be electric, as development leaders from Cummins and Shell talk about natural gas, hydrogen, low-carbon fuels with a spark ignition engines as essential to reach 2050 targets
