Release date- 07092021 - eMine comprises a purposeful approach, method and integrated portfolio of electrification and digital systems designed to accelerate the decarbonization of the mining sector.
ABB is also piloting ABB Ability eMine FastCharge, the world's fastest and only fully automated charging system for haul trucks, offering up to 600kW of power
eMine can reduce diesel consumption by up to 90 percent while haul trucks are on an electric trolley system
ABB today launched ABB Ability eMine, a portfolio of solutions that will help accelerate the move towards a zero-carbon mine. ABB also unveiled the piloting of the groundbreaking ABB Ability eMine FastCharge, the world's fastest and most powerful charging system, designed to interface with all makes of electric mining haul trucks.
eMine comprises a portfolio of electrification technologies which makes the all-electric mine possible from mine to port and is integrated with digital applications and services to monitor and optimize energy usage. It can electrify any mining equipment across hoisting, grinding, hauling and material handling. From 2022, it will include new ABB Ability eMine FastCharge which provides high-power electric charging for haul trucks and is currently in pilot phase. It also incorporates the ABB Ability eMine Trolley System which can reduce diesel consumption by up to 90 percent, significantly lowering energy costs and environmental impact.
