Agriculture: Developments in Lithium Battery Technology
Lead-acid batteries have long been the default battery choice when electrifying diesel-…
Read MoreAgricultural equipment has been transitioning from diesel power to lithium batteries and electric drive. This trend emerged initially in compact equipment, but larger vehicles are now beginning to electrify. There are several reasons for this transition.
With mounting pressure on the agricultural industry to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, governments worldwide are enacting tougher environmental legislation to combat climate change.
Advancements in lithium batteries, lower acquisition costs and benefits in energy capacity, efficiency, charge times and operator safety are tipping the scales in total cost of ownership, making electric drive a practical reality for agricultural equipment.
The development of range extenders and hybridization of large agricultural equipment is improving energy efficiency, reducing emissions and saving money for the operator.
Access to power can be challenging for electric agricultural equipment, particularly in locations with no utility infrastructure. Planning access to a suitable power source allows the operator quickly recharge battery packs and support intended duty cycles.
Incorporating the right battery charger system for individual agricultural equipment or fleet operations is an important design consideration. Delta-Q offers flexible charging solution options that can be well-matched to the size and recharge requirements of the agricultural equipment’s lithium battery packs. Whether you’re looking for a charging solution that is on-board, off-board or a combination, we have you covered!
