MAKING HISTORY

Australian Mining

December 2024

IN DECEMBER 2023, FORTESCUE MOVED ONE STEP CLOSER TO ITS DECARBONISATION GOAL WITH THE DEPLOYMENT OF A LIEBHERR R 9400 E, AUSTRALIA'S FIRST OPERATIONAL ELECTRIC EXCAVATOR ON A MINE SITE.

Fortescue and Liebherr are no strangers to making history. Such was the case in December 2023 when Fortescue deployed Australia's first operational electric R 9400 excavator from Liebherr in backhoe configuration, a significant step for sustainable mining.

Since then, additional R 9400 E excavators have been commissioned across Fortescue sites in Western Australia.

Fortescue and Liebherr recently announced they will deploy 475 Liebherr battery-electric haul trucks, electric excavators and battery-powered dozers across Fortescue's Western Australian iron ore operations, creating an all-electric, zero-emission ecosystem of mining machinery to help eliminate fossil fuels.

The haul trucks and dozers will be powered by Fortescue's battery-electric power system developed inhouse by Fortescue Zero - Fortescue's technology arm.

"Our collaboration is all about pushing the boundaries of mining innovation," Liebherr Australia key account manager Olivier Laurent said.
