Hybrid Construction Machinery (HCM), known as an effective and crucial solution for the issues of environment pollution and energy shortage, has aroused increasing attention from manufacturers and researchers. A suitable energy management strategy is the vital technology to determine the energy saving and emission reduction performance of HCM. In the present paper, the difference between construction machinery and automobiles is first analyzed from the perspective of configuration, and the energy-based HCM configuration classification method is introduced and analyzed. Second, the development of HCM energy management strategy is reviewed along with relevant references, and the HCM energy management strategies are classified and summarized. In the meantime, the characteristics of each strategy are compared and analyzed, and the application of HCM energy management strategy is analyzed based on the relevant research results. Lastly, the state, challenges facing and the trend of HCM energy management strategy are analyzed on the levels of theory, manufacturer and market. According to the analysis, though progress has been achieved in energy management technology of HCM driven by market and policy, many challenges and problems remain in the electrification and intellectualization of HCM and the testing, application and improvement of the strategy. The contribution of this paper can be identified in three points: First, it can be referenced to solve relevant engineering problems. Second, it lays the foundation for the proposal of new ideas. Third, it highlights the state-of-the-art trends and avoids what has already been done.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
