Sweden – The autonomous solutions division of AB Volvo of Gothenburg, Sweden has announced a long-term collaboration with Stockholm-based smelting firm Boliden AB on self-driving trucks in mining operations.
The two companies signed a Memorandum of Understanding, committing to multiple projects involving trucks installed with Volvo’s autonomous driving technology, which it developed in-house. It extends a partnership which began with the trial of two electric trucks at a Boliden-owned mine earlier this year.
