The ZEET project, promoted by the consortium of companies led by AGRIA HISPANIA, S.L. and AGRIA ZERO EMISSIONS, S.L., has had as its main objective the development of a new model of zero-emission electric tractor, contributing to the reduction of the environmental impact of the agricultural sector.
The ZEET project is aligned with the sector’s electric mobility and decarbonization strategy, responding to the need to extend the use of the latest technologies to agricultural vehicles.
The objectives that the consortium has set for this project include:
- The design of a zero-emission connected electric tractor platform, contributing to reducing the carbon footprint in the agricultural sector.
- The design of a digital management platform for optimizing the tractor’s energy efficiency and its interaction with the environment.
- Contributing to the development of digital agriculture: promoting sustainability and efficiency in the sector.
- To study the pre-industrialization of the electric tractor based on the implemented prototype and validation results.
As a result of this project, in which the consortium has committed to innovation and sustainability in the agricultural sector, a zero-emission electric tractor prototype has been developed. It is powered by a rechargeable battery system, ready to operate with most implements used in the agricultural and gardening sectors, and connected to a digital cloud platform for efficient energy management and vehicle operations.
The ZEET project, file PR-MOVSING2-INV-2021-0292, has been awarded €387,500 in grants, out of a total budget of €970,000, for its participation in the incentive program for unique electric mobility projects (MOVES Unique Projects II Program), within the framework of the Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan, financed by the European Union – NextGenerationEU.
