BEML has unveiled India’s first indigenously designed and developed 60-Ton Electric Dump Truck, the BH60-EV, at its Mysuru Complex, marking a significant step in the development of high-capacity electric mobility solutions for the mining and infrastructure sectors.

The BH60-EV, designed and developed at the company’s Mysuru Complex, combines high payload capability with advanced electric powertrain technology and operator-focused engineering, while delivering zero tailpipe emissions during operation. The vehicle is built to meet the demanding requirements of mining and infrastructure operations while supporting the shift towards cleaner, more efficient and sustainable mobility.

The company also offers a complete charging station solution designed to be compatible with site electrical infrastructure and scalable for fleet operations. This integrated approach enables customers to adopt electric heavy-duty equipment with a charging ecosystem tailored to their operational requirements. The BH60-EV is designed to deliver 40-60% lower operating costs compared with conventional diesel-powered equipment, while enabling an estimated annual reduction of around 130 tonnes of CO2 emissions per vehicle, subject to operating conditions.

BEML is a Public Sector Undertaking for manufacture of Rail Coaches & Spare Parts and Mining Equipment.
