BME’s mission is to be the leading original equipment manufacturer in battery electric heavy equipment / vehicle retrofits (converting from diesel to electrical).
BME helps companies that operate heavy diesel equipment in confined spaces (such as factories and underground tunnels), to eliminate employee exposure to carcinogenic diesel exhaust fumes (linked to lung cancer) and to achieve their overall greenhouse gas emissions reduction goals. This need was identified by the Board of Directors’ extensive experience in underground mining, as on average 30% to 50% of total direct greenhouse gas emissions from an underground mine site are from diesel powered mining equipment/vehicles.
