Weichai Power Battery-Electric Mining Trucks Delivered in Inner Mongolia

Weichai Power Co., Ltd has announced that 60 Weichai Power battery-electric mining trucks equipped with its power batteries have been delivered to customers in Inner Mongolia. The vehicles use dedicated 807 kWh mining truck power batteries based on the latest LFP blade battery technology. The battery system provides a cycle life of 4,500 cycles and is designed to operate across temperatures from -35°C to 65°C. Its vibration resistance reaches four times the level required under national standards, supporting demanding operating conditions associated with mining applications.

The power battery system also supports fast charging, taking 30 minutes to increase the battery state of charge from 20% to 80% SoC. According to Weichai Power, the battery-electric system reduces energy consumption by 75% compared with diesel-powered models. Under downhill operating conditions, the system achieves a regenerative energy recovery rate of 90%. These specifications combine high-capacity energy storage, temperature tolerance, vibration resistance, rapid charging and regenerative energy recovery for battery-electric mining operations in demanding environments.
