World's largest EV never has to be recharged
The eDumper makes a good case for going fully electric with heavy-duty construction, mining, and industrial equipment.

A 600 kwh battery pack so... Rocks can roll down hill? Galaxy brain moment.
Probably a lot less safe (and harder to aim) if you don't use the truck. Also unlikely they get all the way down unless you mine it in wheel shapes (increasing labor and also, luckily, danger).
Are you surprised by the concept of potential energy?
Genuinely, I cannot tell what your point is. In some alternate universe, are we just rolling the rocks downhill? Don't you think we'd already be doing that? This seems like a great use case to replace diesel trucks with ones that recharge themselves using potential energy from ore. This absolutely is a galaxy brain moment, in that it's a very smart idea.
