Xi’an, September 10, 2025 — Under the theme “The Next MINE: Zero-Emission and Intelligent Operation,” the 2025 SANY Mining Summit successfully concluded in Xi’an, an ancient city of China.
The event brought together more than 300 mining industry experts and strategic partners from around the world. Through high-level dialogues and displays of cutting-edge technologies, participants explored the challenges and opportunities of the sector’s green and intelligent transformation, showcasing the company's innovation strength and win-win commitment as a global leader in equipment manufacturing.
Driving Industry Transformation Through Zero-Emission and Intelligent Innovation
At the summit, SANY’s executives delivered a series of important speeches. In his welcome address, Mr. Qi Jian reviewed the globalization journey of SANY’s mining equipment business. He noted that the Heavy Equipment BU has achieved consecutive breakthroughs in overseas sales in recent years with a compound annual growth rate of 70%, making SANY the largest Chinese exporter in the mining truck segment. “This outstanding achievement is inseparable from the support of our global customers,” he said. “SANY will continue to uphold the mission of ‘Quality Changes the World’ to create even greater value for customers.”
Mr. Li Qin delivered a keynote speech outlining SANY’s “GREAT” value framework for mining equipment: Green Pioneer, Reliable, Efficient, Autonomous, Safety. He shared that in 2024, SANY’s mining equipment sales reached USD 3.2 billion with particularly strong growth in electric products. He also highlighted SANY’s original “Mine + Renewable Energy + Electric Equipment” integrated business model, which leverages clean energy micro-grid solutions — including wind, solar, hydrogen and storage — to help customers significantly reduce both operating costs and carbon emissions.
A highlight of the summit was the global debut of two new products: the SKT130S hybrid mining truck and the SET150S electric mining truck, unveiled jointly by Mr. Ding Yaojun and Mr. Cao Te. This was followed by a major signing ceremony with 13 key partners from around the world.
Deliveries Highlight Strength, Autonomous Driving Marks Mining Future
The delivery ceremony was a highlight. The company delivered SAT40C articulated trucks to a key partner in the Middle East, demonstrating the competitiveness of SANY equipment in high-end markets.
In addition, SANY successfully delivered a micro-grid project— another milestone in SANY’s green energy solutions application in African mines, providing solid support for the industry’s low-carbon transition.
The grand finale was a live demonstration of autonomous driving. Following the launch by Mr. Huang Xianhui, Chairman of SANY Smart Mining, the SKT130Hi line-control mining truck equipped with SANY’s fully self-developed autonomous driving system simulated the full “Mining–Hauling–Dumping” process, showcasing core technologies in efficient loading, economical hauling and safe dumping.
SANY currently has over 230 autonomous vehicles in commercial operation in China, with overall efficiency exceeding 105%, delivering returns far beyond manual operation and painting a clear picture of the future of smart mining.
The summit is not only a platform for technical exchange but also a bridge for deepening friendships with global customers. Beginning on September 7, participants visited SANY’s Global R&D Center and its smart factory in Kunshan, experiencing first-hand SANY’s advanced manufacturing concepts and digital production capabilities.
The successful hosting of this summit emphasized SANY Group’s comprehensive capability to deliver full-value-chain solutions, from electric products and clean energy to smart operations, while strengthening strategic trust and cooperation with global mining partners. SANY will continue to join hands with partners worldwide to drive the mining industry toward a safer, greener, more efficient, and smarter future, and open a new chapter of “The Next MINE.”
