Webinar: "Modeling BEV Duty Cycles and Charging Power Needs in Mines"

00:00:00 Introduction and Agenda 00:00:39 Simulation based assessment of energy demand from BEVs in mines What happens to an underground mine’s electrical grid when diesel equipment is replaced with battery-electric vehicles (BEVs)? In this webinar, CanmetMINING, Natural Resources Canada, presents a modeling framework to estimate shift-level electrical power demand for underground mines transitioning to battery-electric fleets. Using real vehicle classes, realistic duty cycles, and OEM-available charging technologies, the study explores how electrification impacts charging load profiles, grid capacity, and operational feasibility. ⚡ Key insights: Charging strategy strongly influences peak power demand and equipment availability Battery swapping improves utilization for LHDs and haul trucks, but may require additional batteries as ramp lengths increase For brownfield mines, electrification can significantly increase electrical demand—even as ventilation needs decrease Grid capacity, charger placement, and operational scheduling are critical to successful BEV deployment 📌 Data availability and references: Some components of this work—such as the LHD and haul truck energy consumption models and the analysis used to generate mine-level grid power demand curves—have not yet been made public. These results are part of ongoing research, and publications are planned. The following publicly available studies were used as key inputs for the work presented: CanmetMINING battery electric vehicle field test series: Relay utility vehicle (https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/...) CanmetMINING battery electric vehicle field test series: Rokion R400 utility vehicle — surface (https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/...) CanmetMINING BEV field test series: Energy consumption model and simulation (https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/...) Note: Results presented are preliminary and based on available field data, OEM specifications, and published literature at the time of the study. 🙏 Acknowledgements: This webinar is part of the dissemination activities for IEA IETS Task XXII – “Climate Adaptation and Energy Resilience in Industry under Uncertainty.” About CanmetMINING, Natural Resources Canada CanmetMINING, part of Natural Resources Canada, conducts applied research to support the decarbonization of the mining industry.
