The South & Central America mining remanufacturing components market was valued at US$ 371.61 million in 2022 and is expected to reach US$ 470.95 million by 2030; it is estimated to register a CAGR of 3.0% from 2022 to 2030.
Rising Adoption of Electric and Autonomous Vehicles in Mining Industry Fuels South & Central America Mining Remanufacturing Components Market
The mining sector is beginning to profit from a new generation of low-emission "driverless" mine vehicles that are changing the industry's image and moving it toward decarbonization. Electric vehicles (EVs) are added to fleets for use in both open pit and underground operations by purchasing or refitting existing diesel engine vehicle fleets. Toyota Motor Corp. is at the forefront of developing these new mining vehicles. Toyota and Komatsu launched a cooperative effort in May 2023 to build an autonomous light vehicle (ALV) that will run on Komatsu's GPS-enabled Autonomous Haulage System (AHS). Cool Planet Group, a decarbonization solutions company, announced a US$ 54.2 million deal with a "leading global mining company" in May 2023 to convert 8,500 diesel mining trucks to electric vehicles over the next three years. According to the firm's CEO, up to 1 million diesel mining vehicles must be converted to electricity by 2030. The company is now collaborating with five or six of the world's major mining companies.
In 2023, at a mine in Brazil, U&M Mineracao e Construcao S/A and Hexagon implemented their OEM-agnostic AHS solution in combination with a plan to introduce two AHS-enabled modified Caterpillar 777 trucks to the project. In order to prepare the 100-ton class payload trucks for automation, U&M collaborated with them to do the necessary mechanical modifications without interfering with the OEM system.
The abovementioned activities by mining and truck manufacturing companies are projected to increase the adoption of electric trucks in the mining industry. This increased demand for electric trucks will directly boost the demand for the truck's components, such as battery packs, motors, and transmissions, which is expected to create lucrative opportunities for the mining remanufacturing component market during the forecast period.
South & Central America Mining Remanufacturing Components Market Overview
