ZQuip: Modular Batteries Solve Equipment Runtime, Charging Issues

Battery technology company ZQuip has developed a modular battery system that can eliminate the fear of equipment runtime, and power machines weighing 5 to 50 tons.

The company’s system can convert diesel construction equipment to zero-emission electric power by using modular batteries that can be swapped out when depleted with charged batteries. They can also charge each other. It’s a system that appears to have solved the problem of charging and running battery-powered equipment.

On this episode of The Dirt, we hear from ZQuip’s Managing Director Chris Lafleur and Engineering Manager Rob Bauer to find out how the modular system works and why it could be the answer to creating a productive and cost-effective zero-emission jobsite and fleet.
