Swedish Mine to Debut World-Unique Electric Trucks in Severe Cold

Swedish Mine to Debut World-Unique Electric Trucks in Severe Cold Subscribe Sputnik International https://sputniknews.com/europe/202101291081914586-swedish-mine-to-debut-world-unique-electric-trucks-in-severe-cold/ The ultimate goal is to have have a fully electric truck fleet by 2025, and the overall ambition is to go entirely green and make operations at the site entirely fossil-free, including switching to wind power generation. The mining company Kaunis Iron in Pajala municipality in Norrbotten County will become the first in the world to test electric battery-driven trucks in severe cold. Winter temperatures below 30 degrees are not uncommon in northern Sweden. Electric Volvo FMX, which weigh 32 tonnes and carry a maximum load of 15 tonnes, will be driven one trip per day, 160 kilometres one way between the mine in Kaunisvaara and the transshipment point Pitkäjärvi. To cope with the long stretch, extra chargers have been installed in three different locations.
