The event, to be hosted by KHL editor Julian Buckley, will take place on Tuesday, February 17, 2026 (9am CST / 4pm CET).

Buckley said the aim of the webinar is to deliver business insight to those OEMs, engineers and technology leaders navigating the shift to zero-emission construction equipment.

He said, “We’ve seen increasing pressure for organisations to reduce emissions while maintaining productivity and uptime, and manufacturers are now having to rethink how machines are designed, powered and supported across their entire lifecycle.

“This event will look at the real-world business case for electrification – from total cost of ownership and development timelines to serviceability, scalability and long-term fleet performance.”

For OEMs, it will also pose the question, can modular machine architectures enable faster development cycles while reducing complexity across product lines?
