LGMG Deploys 30 RTH100 Hybrid Mining Trucks in Peru, Strengthening Its Position in the Latin America

Earlier this year, Lingong Group (LGMG China) took an unprecedented strategic step by deploying 30 RTH100 hybrid mining wide-body dump trucks at Shougang Hierro Peru S.A.A.—Peru’s most important iron mine. This move solidified its operations in the country. Supported on-site by LGMG Maquinarias Perú and in collaboration with San Martin Contratistas Generales, this deployment marks a milestone in innovation and sustainability for Peru’s mining sector.

Hybrid Technology: Efficiency and Sustainability

The mining industry is continuously evolving, with growing demand for more efficient and sustainable equipment. LGMG has responded to this challenge with its RTH100 hybrid mining truck, which combines diesel and electric power with backup battery and regenerative technology to optimize fuel consumption and reduce the carbon footprint of mining operations. Key features include:

✔ 754 HP hybrid engine, maximizing performance and efficiency

✔ 90-ton effective payload, ideal for high-demand operations

✔ 100% hydraulic steering system with emergency steering function, ensuring maneuverability and safety

✔ Fully air-conditioned, center-mounted cab, offering enhanced visibility and operator comfort

✔ Rearview camera to improve visibility and safety during operation

A Positive Impact on Peru’s Mining Industry

The implementation of these trucks at Shougang represents a major shift in productivity and sustainability. Thanks to hybrid technology, mining operations can achieve significant fuel savings and reduce CO₂ emissions—aligning with global trends toward responsible mining.

Additionally, LGMG’s on-site technical support ensures that each unit operates in optimal condition, resulting in higher availability and reduced downtime. This integrated service model strengthens the relationship between manufacturer and operator, setting new standards for efficiency in the industry.

Commitment to the Future of Mining

The collaboration between LGMG Maquinarias and San Martin Contratistas Generales is a prime example of how the synergy between innovation and operational efficiency is transforming the industry. With the deployment of these 30 hybrid trucks, Peru is positioning itself at the forefront of sustainable mining in the region—investing in solutions that not only enhance profitability but also protect the environment.

In a context where energy efficiency and emissions reduction are top priorities, such initiatives will play a vital role in paving the way for a cleaner, more efficient, and more competitive mining industry.
