LeeBoy, a leading manufacturer of commercial asphalt paving equipment, and Portable Electric (PE), a manufacturer of portable and mobile e-Chargers and e-Generators, are working together to revolutionize the paving industry. The two companies have joined forces to develop the LeeBoy 8520C E-Paver, a commercial-class electric asphalt paver that incorporates various EV components and propulsion technologies supplied by GM.
At the recent ConExpo trade show, LeeBoy demonstrated the 8520C E-Paver using Portable Electric’s Voltstack 30k, an all-in-one mobile site power and equipment charger. The Voltstack 30k is designed to provide a versatile on-site power solution at construction job sites, and its Smart Hybrid feature is designed to seamlessly integrate with gas or diesel generators, optimizing efficiency and reducing carbon emissions.
Chris Broome, Senior Product Manager at LeeBoy, commented on the collaboration: “The Voltstack ecosystem will play a crucial role in ensuring the success of our electric equipment and maximizing uptime on our construction projects. With Level 3 charging, the same 15-minute charging window will lead to an additional 57 tonnes of asphalt. That extra production will be game-changing.”
The partnership between LeeBoy and Portable Electric is a major step forward in the electrification of the paving industry. With the Voltstack 30k e-Charger, LeeBoy is able to recharge their paver quickly and efficiently, allowing for increased production and reduced emissions. This collaboration is sure to have a lasting impact on the paving industry for years to come.
