Battery Trucks

Haul Infinity now has support for a new feature, handling supports trucks that use batteries as a power source instead of the conventional diesel (or some other form of hydrocarbon), including supporting the concept of regenerative braking.The support for these trucks includes both the tracking of . Additionally, it’s now possible to model regenerative braking and recharging trucks that are connected to a trolley-assist system.

It’s now possible to track battery usage over a haulage cycle:, instantaneous power draw (or recharge).

...

The support also includes accounting for Further, the time taken to recharge the trucks between hauls (if needed, and including this ) is now included in the cycle time analysis:

...

These values are also then exported to Production Scheduler and Tactical Scheduler for analysis of factors such as the total number of recharges in a given periodAll these new fields associated with battery trucks are now available in both APS and ATS, which allows for modelling battery truck requirements (and comparing against conventional trucks).

Note that in order to use these functions, the performance information of the battery-powered trucks must be provided by the user. The Alastri truck library does not contain any battery-powered trucks yet (because none currently exist in production quantities).
