Customers benefit from a modular-based solution from a single supplier – Scania – which allows easy integration, tailored fit and services for their own specific operations, and spans a wide range of applications in the industrial segment.
The launch of this new range of electric power solutions marks the latest impressive progress in Scania’s work to make the industrial segment truly sustainable and builds upon the company’s existing and versatile range of fuel-efficient products. It means that both our fuel-efficient and zero-emission alternatives support customers’ needs now and, in the future, backed by our global service network.
“We are committed to helping our customers with their sustainability transformation,” says Björn Winblad, Director for e-Mobility Solutions at Scania Power Solutions.
“And with Scania’s existing knowledge of electrification from the truck, bus and marine applications and the modular nature of our offering, we have a strong range of solutions that are diverse and adaptable for the many applications in the wider industrial sector.”
Scania and Cometto launch self-propelled, electric-powered platform for heavy lifting
In another milestone for Bauma 2025, Scania has teamed up with Italy-based company Cometto to present a new fully-electric self-propelled modular trailer (SPMT) for moving large goods, powered by Scania’s electrification solutions.
The high-torque, modular-based solution has been designed to be used for a variety of heavy industries, such as Wind, Energy, Aviation & Space, Industrial Plant Relocation and Mechanical & Plant Engineering. It boasts a number of impressive features, including a built-in charger, compact design, long battery life, fast charging capability, quiet operations, and above all, zero emissions to support a cleaner, safer environment.
After using Scania internal combustion engines in its products for many years, it’s the first SPMT with electric powerpack unit from Cometto, which is the specialist within the Faymonville Group for the development and manufacture of self-propelled modular transporters, heavy load modules and special transporters for industrial applications. Scania’s extensive investment in R&D and its electrification roadmap make it the ideal partner for Cometto’s own electrification journey.
Cometto’s Product Manager Adrian Zingan says, “For over 50 years, Cometto has led the way in self-propelled transporters, continuously innovating to meet specialised transport needs. Our longstanding partnership with Scania has proven their expertise, reliability, and outstanding global service support through years of working with their diesel engines."
“While we have successfully developed electric and hybrid solutions for special applications in the past, we chose Scania for our standardised SPMTs because their full solution integrates seamlessly into our powerpacks, ensuring top performance and efficiency.”
The all-electric SPMT already has a customer. After Bauma one will be delivered to Mammoet, the world’s largest heavy-lifting company.
