EV Hybrid Crane at Dariba Smelting Complex
Hindustan Zinc has taken a significant step towards enhancing sustainability in its heavy manufacturing operations with the deployment of an EV Hybrid Crane at its Dariba Smelting Complex in Rajasthan. This initiative is designed to substantially reduce daily fuel consumption and lower direct carbon emissions associated with critical material handling processes.
The newly introduced hybrid crane will replace traditional diesel-powered units, which are known for their high fuel usage during continuous operation and idling periods. By adopting electric and hybrid alternatives, Hindustan Zinc is aligning with its broader objective of fostering safer, smarter, and cleaner industrial practices. This move is expected to maintain efficient production while minimizing the environmental impact of its operations, marking a commitment to adopting greener machinery in the sector.
