Supplying the first Hybrid Excavators to BBV on HS2

Lynch is pleased to have supplied the first 20T and 40T Hybrid Machines to our customer BBV JV, working on HS2. These were delivered to Washwood Heath, Sublot 4, where there are already over 20 Lynch machines on hire.

Merrill Lynch, Director, and Tom Law, HS2 Project Manager, attended the site to meet with BBV's works manager, and see the Machines at work.

These Hybrid Excavators are powered by intelligent Hybrid Technology, which reduces fuel consumption and minimises emissions, without compromising on productivity. Additionally, being ultralow noise helps create a better working environment for everyone on site.

Lynch Operators have completed advanced eco-driver training to ensure that we get the very best out of these machines, maximising efficiency, and power. This combination of Hybrid Technology and eco-driver training reduces the overall carbon footprint of the project, helping to tackle important environmental issues.

Lynch is proud to be running one of the UK's biggest Hybrid Fleets. We now have many hybrid machines on hire across the project and are pleased to see this number growing. “ These machines reduce our impact on the environment and offer moneysaving opportunities for our customers. It’s great to be able to bring innovation to this site and the project. ”
