How Can Traditional Mining Go Light ? XCMG Hybrid Large Excavator Showcase Delivers Green Solutions
Amid the global wave of new energy revolution and guided by the "Dual Carbon" strategy, the mining sector is rapidly transforming toward high-end, intelligent, and green operations. On August 10, XCMG’s "Hybrid Power, Legend Continues—Green Mining Solutions Immersive Experience" event grandly commenced in Kunming, Yunnan. Through a high-standard, multi-dimensional, and immersive innovation showcase, XCMG joined hands with over 130 partners across the industry chain to explore the future of green mining transformation.
As early as June last year, XCMG launched the XE650GK HEV, the world’s first hybrid mining excavator, filling the gap for new energy excavators in the mining sector. By innovatively integrating the advantages of fuel power and new energy technology, it helps customers achieve "higher productivity, lower costs, and increased profits."
At the event, XCMG exhibited a flagship product lineup featuring both hybrid and fuel-powered models, marking a pinnacle breakthrough for China’s high-end equipment manufacturing in the green revolution. Large-tonnage "steel giants" ranging from 65 to 87 tons conducted live demonstrations in simulated complex mining conditions. With giant buckets loading trucks at high efficiency and fuel-powered vs. hybrid excavators performing side by side, attendees experienced firsthand the efficiency revolution brought by XCMG’s innovative technology.
Notably, large hybrid excavators like the XE650GK HEV and XE750GK HEV maintain superior operational performance while reducing energy consumption by over 20% compared to fuel-powered models. A single unit can cut 105 tons of CO₂ emissions annually—equivalent to the carbon sequestration of 1,600 trees.
Beyond the dual-path innovation of hybrid and fuel power, XCMG introduced the "Mining Full-Cycle Value Assurance Plan." This pioneering business model, combining smart management + worry-free service + value protection, redefines cutting-edge mining operations.
More than just a showcase, this event was a journey of technological and business model innovation. By lowering the barriers to green transformation, XCMG and its customers are writing a vivid new chapter in the mining revolution.
