      The Real Costs of Electric Car Ownership - CNET

      The CAT994H holds 1014g of diesel fuel. A nominal 60g/hr consumption rate will permit 16.9 hr of operation, in which it will lift enough bauxite for 2129 Tesla batteries.

      One Tesla kWh. Battery has about 275 kg of aluminum, which requires 5 tons of the red mineral bauxite. The CAT 994H doesn’t haul the material, only lifts it into the truck. Assuming 30 lifts/ hr it consumes -2g diesel per lift. 1 lift= 21 tons (4.2 Tesla batteries)

      From Catapillars website the 994H has a 1577 HP engine and can lift 35 tons (77000 lbs) at once. 1577 HP consumes 85 gal/hr @100%throttle but it’s not expected to consistently operate at full throttle & rated load. ( more likely 40-70% of each, I will use 60%)
