Epiroc launches next‑generation charging solution, engineered for tough mining and heavy-duty demands

“Our new charging solution is the result of years of experience from the field, delivering reliable power where it’s needed and giving customers the operational flexibility to get the most from their electrified vehicles - regardless of the manufacturer,” says Trent Sears, Global Product Manager – EV Infrastructure at Epiroc.

Engineered for the toughest underground conditions and protected by an IP65‑classified design, the new chargers withstand dust, humidity, and continuous heavy‑duty use. With the ability to place remote charge posts up to 300 meters from the central cabinet, mines gain significantly more freedom in employing decentralized charging strategies to reduce tramming, minimize queues, and keep power close to active faces. Charge posts can both be pedestal‑mounted or wall‑mounted, giving operations the possibility to place them where they’re most effective.

“To further boost productivity, the chargers support dynamic power sharing across up to eight posts per cabinet. This allows available capacity to be directed to where it’s needed, adapting in real time to changing fleet patterns and helping maintain high equipment utilization throughout every shift,” says Sears.

Other benefits include telematics support for tracking charge sessions, along with plug‑and‑play power electronics that simplify serviceability, installation, and configuration. All combined, they create a unified “one charging solution” for mixed battery‑electric fleets. Improved charging solutions also play an important role in reducing the industry’s reliance on fossil fuels and mitigating the risks of supply disruption and price instability.

The new charging solutions are available globally starting April 2026.
