Blue Energy Motors milestone on decarbonising CV industry in India

Blue Energy Motors, a pioneer in green truck manufacturing, recently celebrated its International Day of Clean Energy by highlighting a significant milestone as its fleet of trucks has successfully prevented over 2,500 tonnes of CO2 emissions since its inception. In India, the logistics sector is the third-most CO2 emitting sector, with about 14 per cent share of emissions. Within logistics, heavy trucking contributes to 45 per cent of total CO2 emissions.
Zero-emission trucks (LNG or battery-operated) have the potential to cut down at least 2.8-3.8 gigatons of CO2 emissions between the present day to 2050. A single LNG truck, covering an average 80,000 km in a year, can significantly cut down emissions, showcasing the tangible benefits of this green transportation solution.

Kubota’s new 8 tonne KX080-5 compact excavator
Kubota's next-generation of its largest compact excavator, the 8.4-metric-tonne KX080-5 comes with a slew of new features. Kubota gave the
cab of the fifth-generation excavator a new interior design and convenient functions. Some new features are: Expanded glass area enables operators to monitor both edges of the dozer blade and the bucket can be viewed through the skylight above when unloading. LED work lights with turn-off delay ensure that the lights shut off within 30 seconds to 2 minutes after the engine stops so the operator can exit the cab safely. An automatic regeneration system burns leftover soot in the diesel particulate filter’s muffler so you don’t have to stop work to clean the filter.

WOLFF Assist: Revolutionising crane service in real time 
If the tower crane’s control electronics suddenly fail during use, the brakes malfunction or if problems arise, you need quick and easy help. Wolffkran’s response to this is WOLFF Assist, the digital remote maintenance system – hands-free and voice-controlled using smart glasses. Equipped with a camera, microphone and monitor, these smart glasses are worn on the head or attached to the helmet, allowing the person on the crane to have their hands free at all times, which is a major benefit in terms of safety and flexibility. The glasses show exactly what the technician on the crane is seeing and can specifically assist them with troubleshooting – either verbally, via chat or even via screen sharing.

Maruti to make electric air copters for take-off and landing on rooftops
Maruti with the help of its Japanese parent company, Suzuki, is planning to develop electric air copters. The electric air copters would be larger than drones but smaller than traditional helicopters, with the capacity to transport at least three passengers, including the pilot. To succeed in India, the air copters must be affordable. With a take-off weight of 1.4 tonnes, the air copter would be nearly half the weight of a conventional helicopter so it can use building rooftops for take-off and landing.
