BHP Group announced on September 23, 2025, its plans to test Caterpillar's new Dynamic Energy Transfer (DET) technology on its large mining trucks. This system is designed to transfer energy to both diesel-electric and battery-electric trucks while they are operating on a mine site.
The DET system aims to enhance operational efficiency and sustainability in mining operations. This collaboration with a major mining company like BHP signifies a significant step in the adoption of Caterpillar's advanced energy solutions.
The testing initiative underscores the growing industry focus on electrification and automation in mining. Successful implementation could lead to broader market acceptance and demand for Caterpillar's innovative technologies in the resource industries segment.
