The aim of the project is to promote the electrification of working machines. Neither the hydraulic systems nor the pumps are currently optimised for use with an electrical primary source of energy.

Did you think that all it takes is changing an excavator’s diesel engine for an electric one? Well, it’s not that simple. The hydraulics can actually be adapted to the many advantages of the electric engine.

Fossil-free applies also to heavy mobile working machines. Liselott Ericson, Flumes, has received SEK 11.6 million to collaborate with industry in developing technology that uses a hydraulic pump in electrically operated working vehicles.
