What is FOREVER BLUE?
FOREVER BLUE is all about transforming industrial vehicles into eco-responsible machines. It tackles the old internal combustion engine emissions—think ECR49, COM1 / TIER1, COM2 / TIER2, COM3 / TIER3—and turns them into efficient, eco-friendly drivelines. The project offers a complete Energy Transition Program that works on several adaptive technological levels. It’s not just a retrofit; it’s a leap toward a cleaner future. The main goal? A blue world, literally and figuratively.
Main Benefits of the FOREVER BLUE Program
Here’s what makes FOREVER BLUE stand out:
- Compliance with the latest emissions standards: Engine TIER 4 / STAGE5 / STAGE6 (2025)
- Electric powertrains using Lead ACID and Lithium LIFEPO4 batteries
- Hybrid systems currently under design, promising even more options
- Hydrogen H2 technology also under design, aiming for zero emissions
- Complete conversion kits designed for economic efficiency
- Focus on renewable or decarbonized energy mobility
- Storage solutions sourced mainly from the circular economy
Energy Transition at the Core
At its heart, FOREVER BLUE is about energy transition. It’s not just swapping engines; it’s a holistic program that adapts to different technological levels. Whether it’s upgrading to the latest TIER 4 engines or moving toward electric and hydrogen powertrains, the program covers it all. This flexibility means industries can choose what fits their needs best, without compromising on environmental responsibility.
Target Sectors and Applications
The mission zeroes in on sectors where emissions are a big deal—airports, ports, railways, and industrial zones. These areas often rely heavily on internal combustion engines, so the impact of converting these vehicles is huge. FOREVER BLUE’s solutions are tailored to the specific uses and needs of customers in these sectors, ensuring practical and effective implementation.
Innovative and Eco-Responsible Solutions
Innovation drives FOREVER BLUE. The project isn’t just about meeting regulations; it’s about pushing the envelope with eco-responsible solutions. From designing and supplying conversion kits to installing economically efficient powertrains, every step is optimized for sustainability. Plus, the focus on storage elements from the circular economy adds another layer of environmental consciousness.
Impact on Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
- SDG 7: Affordable and Clean Energy – through renewable and decarbonized energy mobility
- SDG 9: Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure – by developing advanced powertrain technologies
- SDG 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities – reducing pollution in urban and industrial areas
- SDG 12: Responsible Consumption and Production – via circular economy storage solutions
- SDG 13: Climate Action – cutting down greenhouse gas emissions from industrial vehicles
Looking Ahead: The Future of FOREVER BLUE
What’s next? The project is already working on hybrid and hydrogen powertrains, which are still under design but promise to broaden the eco-friendly options available. The commitment to innovation and environmental responsibility means FOREVER BLUE is positioned to lead the charge in transforming industrial mobility. The vision is clear: a blue world where industrial vehicles no longer pollute but instead drive progress sustainably.
