A compact machine used indoors and a worksite designated as zero-emission by the client are two clear examples of where Avant electric loaders can meet a practical need. Switching to an electric machine is therefore more than a long-term goal for some sites. It can be an operational requirement.

Avant CEO Jani Käkelä explains that the company began developing electric loaders almost ten years ago. Since then, its battery technology has evolved from more conventional solutions to a battery developed in-house by Avant. This development process offers insights into how customer needs, machine design and battery expertise are connected.
