On October 11, China Coal Pingshuo Group’s Anjialing coal mine in Shanxi took supply of an all battery electrical XEG220E 200 t class mining truck manufactured by Xiangtan-based XEMC underneath its Igreencle inexperienced power mining gear model. Zhou Jianjun, Chairman of XEMC was current together with Chen Jian, Chairman of China Coal Pingshuo Group. Igreencle is a JV led by XEMC along with SPIC Qiyuan, Zhongke Wieisu (Guangdong) Expertise Co Ltd, and Jiaxing Ronghe Dianke Qingshan Fairness Funding Partnership. There at the moment are two XEG220E vans operating in China, one with China Coal Pingshuo and the opposite with Sinocoal.
XEMC mentioned the XEG220E all electrical mining truck “is one other progressive instance of XEMC’s collection of inexperienced energy-saving gear. The appearance of latest merchandise has given prospects extra decisions in attaining greener manufacturing, and XEMC has additionally received the popularity of shoppers with glorious product high quality and efficiency.” On the ceremony, China Coal Pingshuo Group additionally signed a procurement contract with XEMC for 16 units of 100 t class XEG120E all electrical vans, with a complete contract quantity of over 100 million yuan, which equates to over US$14 million. Anjialing has already been working a XEG120E for over a 12 months efficiently in assessments.
The XEG120E mining truck can be seeing some success elsewhere on the planet – two had been delivered to AIZ Group in Brazil plus there are six working with copper mine Chinalco and in Russia, coal miner Stroyservis is operating 10 of them.

Igreencle Normal Supervisor Jimmy Ji instructed IM that just like the XEG120E, the XEG220E makes use of lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries however a brand new era with an extended life cycle. The truck has 2,911 kWh of battery energy, makes use of plug in charging with full charging in 50 minutes and is able to operating for six to eight hours between prices. The XEG220E specs say the truck will be delivered both with XEMC 5XEG25 or Wabtec 5GEB25 AC electrical wheel motors.
It’s estimated that every single XEG220E car can cut back CO2 emissions by greater than 1,500 t per 12 months, plus can save prospects about 5 million yuan a 12 months in working prices as a result of lack of diesel value but additionally lowered upkeep. XEMC says that conventional 220 ton diesel mining vans devour about 4,000 litres of gasoline per day, whereas the XEG220E consumes 12,000 kilowatts of electrical energy per day, saving practically 40% in value.
XEMC provides that within the strategy of improvement, to adapt the truck to the street circumstances of enormous open pit mines, it “comprehensively analysed the propulsion system, hydraulic system, air flow system, air-conditioning system and different methods’ power consumption; accomplished the design of the high-voltage distribution field and the high-voltage, high-power energy battery pack; plus developed a high-voltage, high-current quick charging system.”
It provides that it’s dedicated to implementing China’s nationwide ‘twin carbon’ objectives, repeatedly advancing on the street of inexperienced power conservation and emissions discount, innovating within the improvement of inexperienced mine gear, plus researching and creating new merchandise with bigger tonnages and extra intelligence, all contributing to the development of “good mines, inexperienced mines & power saving mines.”
