Problems and Prospects of Agricultural Tractors with Hybrid and Electric Drivetrain Creating

One of the main directions for improving the environmental safety of mobile machines is the implementation of a hybrid electromechanical drivetrain. Its application on tractors has a number of limitations in terms of energy saturation, functionality and control system. Features of hybrid power units and automated electric drivetrain made it possible to form general requirements for the tractor. Given the available shortage of tractors of small and medium traction classes in fleet of vehicles, the concept of a hybrid electromechanical drive is proposed, focused specifically on these tractors. A component base for the implementation of a hybrid electromechanical drivetrain is proposed. It is concluded that for the agricultural engineering industry, the creation of a self-propelled tractor with an electromechanical transmission is the most important technological step towards the creation of a fully unmanned vehicle.
