The Jobsite Fuel Truck of the Future?: Dannar’s Mobile Charger Holds 500 kW

One of the big obstacles to electric construction equipment is finding a charging solution for jobsites. For the past 12 years, Dannar Inc. has been working on the answer, and it has one available now. On this episode of The Dirt, company founder and CEO Gary Dannar explains how this mobile charger can not only serve as a fuel truck by traveling a jobsite with loads of power to charge an excavator or other equipment, but it can also provide support work, such as material handling, lifting and towing. “This has everyone’s imagination going,” Dannar says, as new uses continue to emerge for the Dannar Mobile Power Station. The mobile station acts as a go-between from the power source to the equipment, charging batteries rapidly as needed. That means you won’t have to travel or haul an electric excavator to get charged. Instead, the charger comes to the machine. To learn more about how it works, how fast it can charge equipment and all your other questions about this possible fuel truck of the future, check out the latest episode of The Dirt.

But today we're not talking about equipment necessarily. We're talking about possibly the fuel truck of the future. One of the biggest hurdles that we talk about when it comes to electric equipment is actual distribution. Bryan Furnace How do you get power to your jobsite, let alone to your excavator that is a half mile down the road that you're not going to track back to the charging station? Today we're talking with Dannar, who actually has a solution to that exact problem. Bryan Furnace What you guys are bringing to the table is something that no one has ever seen before. Can you give us kind of an overview of what the Dannar platform is? Gary Dannar So what was imagined by fleet managers? Construction, agriculture, people, military, large customers of off-road equipment? What was imagined for the last 20 years is a multipurpose vehicle that could work year-round. It can work winter and summer. And over those 20 years, there's been a lot of attachments and tools that have been developed by major global suppliers, equipment manufacturers. Gary Dannar I'm sure you're familiar with, you know, different backhoes and snowblowers and trenchers, asphalt planers, all this equipment, scissor lift, forklifts, these have become very, very durable, industrial attachments. And so what we did basically was listen to both camps and see the opportunity to come up with that multipurpose platform that would allow us to receive all those attachments and tools, and then that would mean somebody would be able to have a machine that was very productive, operating in diverse many ways during the winter or in the summer, in the fall or whatever comes up. Gary Dannar A climate event, an emergency response event. That was where the idea came from, was from the end users. And it's taken us about 12 years to get to this point. Bryan Furnace And so how does the unit kind of apply to our industry in the excavating space? What what kind of things can this do? Gary Dannar So I didn't mention that the vehicle is all electric. We are that fuel truck that can be on the jobsite charging up those excavators. And when we're not charging up an excavator, we are working. Perhaps. Maybe we're the forklift or we're towing. Trailers are where have a scissor lift or doing something else. But we're able to be on that jobsite supporting whatever work needs to be done, but also be able to charge up all of those electric machines that are showing up. Bryan Furnace Interesting. So so you just kind of shifted my whole mental capacity on this thing. So really what we're talking about is a unit that can carry a tremendous amount of electricity around on a jobsite. So where I immediately go is a lot of the current options out there for charging electric equipment is you've got to set down a stationary station somewhere, and then at the end of the day, or whenever you need to charge your equipment, you have to track that machine over to that charging station, plug it in and let it sit.
