e-Solutions

In times of climate change and constantly rising costs for resources, innovation and pioneering spirit are in demand. Electrically driven vehicles and products are a hot topic at the moment. There are a lot of opportunities, but also a lot of questions. PALFINGER has taken on this topic at an early stage and is constantly developing new product solutions that help customers achieve their goals and be at the early adopters of e-mobility.

Hybrid solutions as a reliable technology of the future.

The transition to pure e-mobility will still take some time. However, as an innovation driver, PALFINGER has been offering hybrid drive solutions since 2012 and is continuously developing them - both as fixed and detachable variants up to the largest available crane model - the PK 200002L-SH.

eDRIVE – the sustainable solution with a great deal of flexibility.

With the innovative PALFINGER eDRIVE system for the loader crane, you can choose between different options to drive the crane.

e-Truck Solutions

PALFINGER is also constantly bringing more sustainable and flexible loader crane solutions to the market for all truck models and manufacturers. Recently, together with ZF Friedrichshafen and Mercedes-Benz Trucks customers, an innovative solution for e-trucks was offered. Together with the PK 250 TEC, an efficient solution will also be shown on an eVOLVO at the bauma in Munich.
