Electric, diesel, or CNG? MOOG tech lets you pick all of the above, on just ONE machine!
On today’s supremely clever episode of Quick Charge, we talk with engineers from MOOG about diesel, natural gas, and battery power – and how the ability to use any or all of the above on a single machine can help fleets decarbonize at lower cost, and with lower risk than buying different machines for each fuel. The ability to operate a single machine and swap out a power or energy module that can convert it from diesel to electric to hydrogen as needed has been the calling card of MOOG’s ZQUIP technology for all the years we’ve been covering it, and the latest oil war is just making the ZQUIP concept even harder to ignore. Check out some of the articles we’ve written about these guys in the past, below, then let us know what you think about this sort of modular power plant in the comments.
