Discover Future Mining Technologies with SGS Power – Cummins Authorized Dealer
At The Electric Mine 2025, held in Santiago, Chile from May 13-15, 2025, Cummins showcased its breakthrough technologies for the mining industry’s carbon reduction goals.
World’s First Hybrid Electric Retrofit System Introduced
The world’s first Hybrid Electric Retrofit (HEV) system, developed in partnership between Cummins and Antofagasta Minerals, has been successfully applied to a Komatsu 930E-4 dump truck. This innovative technology was demonstrated for the first time at The Electric Mine 2025.
As SGS Power – Cummins Authorized Dealer, we are proud to offer our customers the latest technologies. This hybrid system offers environmentally friendly solutions while protecting your existing fleet investments.
Benefits of Hybrid Electric Retrofit System
Environmental and Economic Advantages
- up to 30% fuel savings and emission reduction
- Significant reduction in carbon footprint
- Increase in operational efficiency
- Application without the need for existing infrastructure
Operational Advantages
- Safe installation, operation and maintenance
- No new infrastructure investment required
- Basic truck functions are not modified
- Normal operation continues even when the hybrid system is disabled
- Extends the life of key truck components by up to 25%
The Working Principle of Technology
The HEV system captures electrical energy generated by the truck’s rheostatic braking system, which is normally lost as heat. This “free” energy is injected back into the truck drive system, reducing diesel consumption.
Thanks to this smart technology, your operators can continue to work with the same efficiency without any changes.
