French contractor VINCI Construction has used construction machines from the FAYAT Group to deliver a low-carbon roadworks project using 100% electric equipment. Both VINCI and Fayat believe this to be a world first for a roadworks site. VINCI Construction subsidiary Emulithe carried out the project using 10096 electric equipment as part of the works to resurface Rue du Lieutenant-Petit-Le-Roy in Chevilly-Larue (Val-de-Marne). The project involved making the street one-way and building a cycle path. Following two days of familiarisation and training, Emulithe's teams used - a 100% electric, rechargeable and silent sprayer, paver and roller, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and noise pollution compared with those produced by conventional worksite equipment. This was the first time that all-electric models of these three essential roadworks machines had been used on a single worksite. THE BOX, from Secmair, is a sprayer designed with decarbonisation in mind. It boasts good range and insulation, usability and simple operation - all designed, engineered and manufactured in France. The SD1800W e is the first mass-produced ' electric urban paver and is manufactured by Dynapac. Its 98kWh battery provides long range and fast recharging. Its low noise level, zero fine-particle emissions and zero smoke emissions make it ideal for urban use and mean it has a much lower carbon footprint. |
