Non-Road Electrification Summit (Construction Machinery)

As industrial activities expand and urbanization accelerates, the demand for off-road machinery in construction, agriculture, mining, and other sectors continues to rise. However, the environmental impact of conventional diesel-powered equipment remains a significant concern, contributing to air pollution and carbon emissions. In response to these challenges, there has been a growing global momentum towards the adoption of zero-emission trucks and off-road machinery powered by electric, hydrogen, or alternative fuels.

The ICCT, in collaboration with government partners worldwide, has embarked on a series of international symposiums dedicated to advancing the deployment of zero-emission off-road machinery. The 2023 Beijing summit  2024 Oslo summit, and 2025 San Francisco summit have successfully united a comprehensive set of stakeholders with a common goal: advancing the adoption and proliferation of ultra-low or zero-emission equipment to combat climate change and drive sustainable development.

This year, the 2026 Non-road Electrification Summit: Construction Machinery is scheduled for September 8th – 10th in Oslo, Norway.

The summit will bring together governments, industry leaders, cities, manufacturers, contractors, ports, utilities, investors, researchers, and civil society organizations to discuss strengthening policies, market signals, infrastructure, financing, and partnerships needed to scale deployment globally.
