Electric aerial work platforms offer several advantages over those powered by other fuel types, such as diesel or gasoline. One significant pro is that electric models produce no emissions, making them environmentally friendly and suitable for indoor use where air quality is a concern. Additionally, they tend to operate more quietly, which is beneficial in noise-sensitive environments. The reduced number of moving parts can also lead to lower maintenance requirements and costs. However, there are some drawbacks, including the limitations on operational range and run time due to battery life, which can be a hindrance for extended projects or in remote locations without charging infrastructure. Battery charging can take time, leading to potential downtime unless additional batteries are maintained. Electric models may also have less power and lifting capacity compared to their diesel counterparts, affecting performance in rugged or heavy-duty applications.
