Under the background of carbon reduction and energy revolution, in response to the construction goal of green mines, in March 2022, Beizhong Group North Co., Ltd. and Inner Mongolia Power Investment Energy Co., Ltd. signed a cooperation agreement to jointly develop 100-ton hydrogen Fuel and lithium battery hybrid mining dump trucks, and plans to establish a comprehensive application demonstration scene of hydrogen energy mining vehicles including hydrogen energy mining vehicles, hydrogen storage and transportation, and filling in the South Open-pit Coal Mine. The model has a dead weight of 115 tons and a load of 136 tons. It is equipped with an industry-leading proton exchange membrane fuel cell and a 70MPa high-pressure and large-capacity on-board hydrogen storage system, which can ensure the vehicle has a long battery life. This model is completely fueled by hydrogen and can achieve zero emissions. Compared with the same tonnage of diesel-powered mining vehicles, the annual reduction of carbon dioxide emissions is 1,815 tons, which is about equal to the emissions of 600 passenger cars.

The model is designed in accordance with industrialized operation standards. The implementation of the project will fill the gap in the industry and become the world's first 136-ton hydrogen-powered mining vehicle. It is also an important measure in response to the national strategic goal, with high economic, social and ecological benefits. At present, the project is progressing smoothly, the design project approval and expert review have been completed, and the trial production of the prototype is in progress. It is expected to complete the delivery of the prototype before December 2022.

In the context of realizing the dual carbon goals and building green mines, Beifang Co., Ltd., based on the mastery of core technologies and the independent control of key areas, has increased investment in research and development in the field of new energy, and has successively developed hybrid mining dump trucks NTH35, Pure electric mining dump truck TR50E. In 2022, the batch operation of 43 TR50E pure electric mining trucks was successfully realized in Conch Group, which showed the characteristics of stability, high efficiency and low cost in operation, which met the requirements of ecological mine construction and comprehensively reduced the operating costs of users in the whole life cycle. At the same time, Beifang Co., Ltd. continues to carry out research and research on power diversification, and is deeply engaged in the field of new energy mining vehicles. It is accelerating the development of TR65E, TR100E pure electric mining vehicles and NTH150 hydrogen energy mining vehicles, for the construction and development of green mines Provide more efficient solutions, help the construction of green mines, and make greater contributions to the implementation of the "dual carbon" goal.Editor/XingWentao
