partially ban sales on combustion engines vehicles. Complete ban by 2050
hardware & maintenance costs vs commonplace EV charging station
of charging attempts fail, 72% of the failures to malfunctioning or out-of-service chargers
of diesel fuel costs can be avoided only in US
Heavy-duty vehicles require bigger batteries and megawatt (MCS) charging technology.
Heavy-duty vehicles are adopting autonomous driving functionalities faster, particularly in areas with restricted access like airports, underground mines, and warehouses.
The charging system needs to be adaptable: starting with CCS now and upgrading to MCS in the near future.
The charging system has to be able to charge autonomous commercial vehicles.
Grivix has unique expertise in cooled cables and MCS charging. With the system, fleet operators have a guarantee of future-proof charging technology & compatibility.

can be saved annually on diesel fuel costs per damper
сost reduction on underground mine ventilation, cooling, and maintenance due to less heat from EVs
emission reduction due to fleet electrification
сost of capital becomes more affordable for mines with higher ESG scores
A health and safety aspect, the clean energy source reduces the risk of noxious fumes exposed to the miners in a confined space.
Qualify for responsible sourcing in their supply chain back to the raw material extraction level.
Comply with increasing pressure from regulators, investors, and customers to decarbonize operations.
High-power MCS charging requires special cooled cables, that are heavy, stiff, have low bending radius and high torsion
Drives need to position the vehicles very precisely to allow the charging.
Autonomous charging robot provides convenience & safety safety in harsh mining environments.
Available charging technologies charge long hrs/overnight- not sufficient for 24/7 mine operation schedule.
Trolley lines require high infrastructure costs and lack flexibility.
Mines have various vehicles in operation that requires compatibility with the charging solution.
Grivix expertise in the field of megawatt charging has been recognized by various stakeholders and resulted in appointing Grivix as a leader of the CharIN Mining Taskforce – The Taskforce that drives the mining industry toward a sustainable tomorrow.

Developing interoperability standards will reduce unnecessary duplication in charging infrastructure for mines around the world while enabling increased efficiency and safety.
It is an international taskforce, supported by The International Council on Mining and Metals (ICMM). Together, the participants are investing in industry-wide collaboration to address technical bottlenecks around the interoperability of battery-electric charging systems for the roll-out of zero-emission mining vehicles that are expected to begin this decade.
