653 Electro Battery zero-emission machine in sensitive environmental zone
Electric crane for emission-free construction sites
In Breda, Netherlands, the electric SENNEBOGEN 653 Electro Battery crane supported the construction of a modern bus depot for electric buses. Using emission-free construction equipment like this crane, the project in the Dutch province of North Brabant focused on sustainable construction site operations and promoted the environmentally friendly expansion of public transport. The depot, which houses, charges, and maintains electric buses, was completed in 2025.
Emission-free construction machinery at the nature reserve
The construction company Van der Ven BV from Brakel has been in business for over 55 years and focuses its activities, among other things, on infrastructure construction. The bus depot construction site is located directly adjacent to a nature reserve, making the minimization of nitrogen oxide emissions particularly important. In addition to NOx filters, emission-free electric machinery was also used. The electric SENNEBOGEN 653 Electro Battery crane played a key role , operating quietly, efficiently, and emission-free.
Easy to use for the crane operator
For the Van der Ven crane operator, the overall impression was thoroughly positive: He was particularly impressed by the high level of comfort, the simple and intuitive operation, and the excellent visibility from the cab . The crane also proved its capabilities in practical use. Continuous operation for a full day, or even two, is easily possible during stationary work. Sufficient capacity is always available to reliably complete the workday. In everyday operation, the operator notices no difference whether the pump is driven by the diesel or electric motor.
Digital and personal support are convincing
The local SENNEBOGEN dealer, Van den Heuvel, also provided reliable support for the project: quick availability and expert advice ensured smooth construction site operations. The integrated machine app also displays the machine status, charging time , and any malfunctions at any time , while the machine itself is easy to maintain and reliable – ideal for sustainable construction sites.
Conclusion: A future-proof solution for sustainable construction
The use of the SENNEBOGEN 653 Electro Battery crane in Breda impressively demonstrated how emission-free construction machinery enables sustainable building projects in sensitive environmental zones. High operator comfort, digital support, and full performance make the crane a future-proof solution for sustainable construction site operations, not only in the Netherlands.
