Volvo Trucks and Putzmeister have today revealed one of the world’s largest battery-electric concrete boom pump trucks at bauma Munich 2025. In technical terms, with the all-electric pump truck, it’s possible to drive up to 50 km and then pump approximately 50 cubic meters of concrete without any need for charging. For longer distances, or for larger quantities of concrete, a CCS charging solution can be installed at the site, and it’s possible to keep pumping the concrete while the truck is being recharged.

We believe in cooperation to move forward, and one example of this can be seen here in Germany together with Putzmeister,” said Christoph Fitz, Head of Sales at Volvo Trucks in Germany.

Transport trucks, cement mixers, concrete pumps, tippers, cranes and hook lifts are part of Volvo’s all-electric solutions conceived also for the construction sector.
