LNG Converison of Medium-sized Dumper Trucks
What we do > Cutting Carbon > LNG conversion of medium-sized dump trucks
In a big push to reduce our carbon footprint, we have initiated the process of retrofitting LNG (Liquefied natural gas) kits in dumpers. The equipment would then have the capability to work on dual fuel.
The dumper fleet consumes 65-75% of total diesel consumed in mines.
Key Benefits
- LNG will replace the use of diesel by 40-45%
- Fuel costs will be reduced by 15%
Environmental Impact
- With this technology, considering 100 units of 100 tonne dumper trucks, 35,375 tonnes of CO2 per year could be saved, represented by a 54% reduction in fuel consumption for dumpers and Volvo trucks.
