At Bauma 2025, Volvo Penta will spotlight its battery-electric platform designed for the construction and mining sectors, with a strong focus on its battery energy storage (BESS) subsystem.
Built on the company’s core strengths—proven combustion engines, purpose-built electric drivelines, and integrated energy storage solutions—Volvo Penta ensures reliable power delivery. With connected solutions and an extensive service network, the company offers a comprehensive portfolio to guide customers in their energy transition.
A commitment to keeping operations moving
Under its brand promise, Made to Move You, Volvo Penta’s showcase at Bauma 2025 underscores its commitment to ensuring construction and mining operations remain productive and competitive during the energy transition. The company’s customer-centric approach is backed by the Volvo Group’s extensive expertise, enabling scalable and tailored solutions.
Volvo Penta’s support for electrification includes its modular and scalable BESS subsystem, which allows OEMs and system integrators to seamlessly integrate electric power solutions that meet the increasing energy demands of construction and mining applications.
Advanced battery-electric platform
Volvo Penta’s BESS subsystem leverages the same high-performance, energy-dense battery technology used in its electromobility drivelines. Engineered for durability and resistance to harsh environmental conditions, the BESS subsystem enables system integrators and manufacturers to develop solutions for both mobile, temporary power needs and permanent infrastructure at electric sites. This flexible and scalable foundation helps businesses adapt to evolving energy requirements while maximizing 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 customisation that will enable them to stay productive, efficient, and future-ready,” commented Hannes Norrgren, president of Volvo Penta Industrial.
While the shift to sustainable energy continues, high-efficiency combustion engines remain vital for off-highway and power generation applications. Volvo Penta is committed to the industry’s net-zero journey, supporting renewable fuels like HVO and advancing hydrogen dual-fuel technology, as seen in its Stage V D8 platform. These developments align with stringent emissions regulations while maintaining the reliability and performance essential for sustainable off-highway and stationary power applications.
At Bauma 2025, Volvo Penta will also highlight how connected solutions and smart technologies enhance productivity. The company’s integrated service offerings and connected engine technology provide OEMs, fleet owners, and operators with added value through seamless support and operational efficiency.
