Oslo pioneers low-emission electric construction with quieter sites

Credited from: THEGUARDIAN

  • Oslo has initiated a world-first mandate requiring all municipal construction machinery to be electric or emission-free, effective from January 1.
  • This transition aims to reduce noise levels and air pollution, as construction is a major source of urban emissions.
  • Recent data reveals that Oslo's construction sites were 98% free from fossil fuels in 2023, with electricity use more than doubling in two years.
  • Despite advances, challenges remain as the industry calls for flexibility due to limited availability of electric construction equipment.
  • As manufacturing increases in response to demand, costs for electric machinery are expected to decrease, promoting wider adoption in cities.
