This document provides a reference electric power profile for electric excavators as members of the off-road electric vehicle cluster, to set up an official driving cycle for these electric excavators inside the off-road vehicles.
This document is also intended to provide a representative electric power profile for an electric excavator that considers the specific characteristics of this off-road vehicle while providing enough evidence of its robustness by comparing the proposed driving cycle with measured electric power profiles of real electric excavators. Additionally, the comparison with available driving cycles is performed to understand better why this proposed new driving cycle for electric excavators is needed.
The provided reference electric power profile for an excavator will help the battery developers to address the specific characteristics of the off-road applications into their design.
