The viability of all-electric vehicles in the construction industry is closer today than ever before. However, due to charging infrastructure limitations, concerns about battery runtimes, and market demand, it may be several years before these machines take on a prominent place on local sites.

Meanwhile, the construction industry has undergone a dramatic shift in its commitment to reducing carbon emissions. The industry has seen a significant increase in sales and manufacturing of electric and hybrid machines over the past few years, brightening the future but also putting pressure on construction companies to develop sustainable strategies and quickly switch to greener energy sources.

In order to transition to all-electric vehicles and more sustainable, energy-efficient operations, many construction companies are looking to phase out traditional gas vehicles with hybrid machines when the application is right for the job.

Most attractive to construction companies, hybrid machines enable them to immediately reduce emissions on their journey to carbon neutrality while helping them complete projects using more effective and efficient machines.
