XCMG Receives International Green Mining Award, Reshaping Mining Logistics with Technological Innovation

PERTH, Australia, June 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The Decarbonised Mine 2025 – The 9^th Annual Energy and Mine Australia Summit has announced this year's Decarbonising Mining Awards on May 6 in Perth, Australia. The supply of battery electric heavy mobile equipment to Fortescue from XCMG Machinery ("XCMG", SHE: 000425), has received the Innovation In Decarbonising Material Movement award.

In November 2024, XCMG signed a USD 4-million contract with Fortescue to supply over 100 units of zero-emissions equipment for Fortescue's Pilbara iron ore mining operations. It marked XCMG's largest contract outside of China for mining equipment and included battery electric wheel loaders, wheel dozers, water carts, float prime movers and graders.

The win demonstrated XCMG Mining Machinery's advantages in technological innovation, including energy efficiency in low-carbon green mining solutions, operational costs, and safety performance. Once the equipment is operational, it is expected to reduce fossil fuel consumption by millions of liters annually, setting an industry benchmark for decarbonization in the mining sector.

The Decarbonised Mine 2025 celebrated the mining companies, projects and individuals leading the charge toward a low-carbon, innovative and sustainable mining future. The international jury for this year's awards include Finance Corporation, Pollination and more.

XCMG is addressing one of the critical challenges of mining transportation emissions, which represents 7 percent of global industrial carbon output. In addition to delivering the right equipment, XCMG has built a comprehensive green ecosystem integrating technical standards, innovative business models and customized support services.

Adrienne Baker, director of Energy and Mines , remarked that the awards highlight the bold innovation and visionary leadership that's driving the mining industry toward a low-carbon future. The efforts of the winners and finalists are showing to the world that mining can play a pivotal role in innovation, sustainability and positive change.

As the net-zero revolution anchors a new era of mining, XCMG is committed to serving global customers and powering the green and sustainable development of the mining industry worldwide.

XCMG will continue to bring high-end, intelligent and green mining equipment products and full life cycle solutions to lead the industry's green and low-carbon transformation. By fostering strategic partnerships and sharing expertise, XCMG aims to set new global standards for smart, zero-carbon mining while contributing innovative solutions to the world.

In May 2025, XCMG delivered 100 all-electric, autonomous mining trucks to Huaneng Yimin Open-Pit Coal Mine in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, which makes the mine site the world's first to operate a fleet of 100 zero-carbon, fully autonomous electric haul trucks.

XCMG Receives International Green Mining Award, Reshaping Mining Logistics with Technological Innovation

GUANGZHOU, China, Jan. 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Recently, GAC's independently developed Quark E-Drive power domain control system has achieved the world's first dual certification for deeply integrated ASIL D functional safety and information security, accredited by DAkkS, Germany's national accreditation body. The certification was evaluated and issued by SGS-CSTC Standards Technical Services Co., Ltd. (SGS), a globally recognized certification authority.

ISO 26262 is the internationally recognized core standard for automotive functional safety. Within this framework, ASIL D represents the highest automotive safety integrity level, requiring near-zero tolerance for safety-critical failures. Achieving an ASIL D certification accredited by DAkkS signifies that the certified product meets the highest globally accepted standards for automotive safety.

The certified Quark E-Drive power domain control system has been in production use since February 2025, and is now deployed across multiple models under GAC's brands - HYPTEC and AION. As the industry's first electric drive power domain system based on deep integration using a single main control chip, the solution significantly reduces chip count, minimizes risks associated with chip-level failures, and boosts motor controller efficiency to as high as 99.9%. The certification confirms that GAC has completed the system's full product development lifecycle in strict compliance with ISO 26262:2018 functional safety and ISO/SAE 21434:2021 information security standards.

Throughout the project, GAC Technology Research Center worked closely with SGS experts, strengthening safety design across all development phases while ensuring engineering feasibility and an optimal user experience.

Zhao Hui, Vice President of SGS China, commented: "The successful certification highlights GAC's strong team and robust development systems. We are pleased to support the safety of the Quark E-Drive and look forward to closer collaboration."

This milestone represents a major breakthrough for GAC in e-drive safety and sets a new global benchmark for the intelligent electric vehicle industry.
