Scott Technology announced an agreement with Caterpillar, that supports both company's commitments to contribute to a reduced-carbon future. Scott and Caterpillar will develop an automated connection system to support stationary charging of electrified machines. Scott's expertise in this space derives from its Robofuel product, which successfully automates the traditional diesel refuelling process of mining vehicles.

Under the collaboration, Scott will apply this proprietary technology to enable solutions in electrified applications. Electric mining vehicles will require more recharging interactions than traditional diesel vehicles require refuelling, therefore the need to automate this process is critical to ensuring safety and efficiency.
