By combining our knowledge of electric systems with hydraulics, Parker is improving machine and vehicle performance. Parker designs and manufactures a broad array of hybrid and electric vehicle drivetrain motors and inverters with maximum power density, highest efficiency and broad scalability.

Batteries aren’t the only possible solution to adopting alternative fuels. Cleaner combustion is also possible using alternative fuels, such hydrogen, CNG and LNG. Parker’s broad portfolio includes hoses, connectors, seals and other components for the successful conveyance of these various fuels.

Infrastructure, primarily in the form of charging stations, remains somewhat of a barrier to the adoption of electric vehicles. But there are signs of progress. For example, new technologies are allowing for more efficient battery charging so that batteries last longer and can charge more quickly.

Parker’s controllers extract maximum efficiency from a battery. Sensors allow for unprecedented insights into how machines are performing and where they are located, while Parker’s Mobile IoT platform provides integrated  components and software that deliver next-generation connectivity.
