Volvo CE and Hitachi Energy have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to jointly develop end-to-end solutions for zero-emission construction sites, impacting the UAE market.
Volvo CE and Hitachi Energy have entered into an MoU to co-develop comprehensive solutions aimed at achieving zero-emission construction sites. This collaboration focuses on integrated solutions to power next-generation construction, addressing the demand for sustainable practices in the industry, particularly within the UAE.
