Volvo Penta Drives Next Steps in Electrification at Bauma 2025

21 Feb 2025 CW Team

In supporting electrification, Volvo Penta will showcase their scalable and modular BESS subsystem that enables OEMs and system integrators to seamlessly integrate and deploy electric power to meet the ever-exceeding energy needs in construction and mining.

High-performance and versatile battery-electric platform

The same high-performance, energy-dense battery technology used in Volvo Penta’s electromobility drivelines now powers its BESS subsystem — designed for reliable performance, durability, and resistance to dust and corrosion in tough environments. Volvo Penta’s BESS subsystem enables system integrators and BESS manufacturers to create tailored solutions for everything from mobile, temporary power applications to permanent infrastructure at electric sites. This provides a flexible, robust, and scalable foundation that customers can seamlessly adapt to their business needs and meet growing energy demands while maintaining productivity and uptime.

“Our modular and scalable battery-electric platform is designed to support the electrification ecosystem — combining high-performance drivelines with the crucial energy storage subsystems for efficient charging and operation in construction and mining. We want to meaningfully collaborate with our customers on value-added customization that will enable them to stay productive, efficient, and future-ready,” says Hannes Norrgren, President of Volvo Penta Industrial.

The longevity of combustion engine

As the energy transition evolves, high-efficiency combustion engines remain crucial for off-highway and power generation applications. Volvo Penta is committed to the industry's path to net zero, supporting renewable fuels like HVO as well as advancing hydrogen dual-fuel technology (such as the one on its Stage V D8 platform). These innovations align with stringent emissions regulations while ensuring reliability and performance, aimed at contributing to a more sustainable future for off-highway and stationary power applications.

Agility and flexibility in services and support

At bauma, Volvo Penta will showcase opportunities with smarter, connected, and productivity-focused solutions. Additionally, integrated service solutions and connected engine technology can provide added value, ensuring seamless support and efficiency for OEMs, fleet owners, and operators.
