SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MONITORING ENERGY CONSUMPTION OF TASKS PERFORMED BY A HEAVY MACHINE

Methods and systems for monitoring battery consumption for a heavy machine such as used in mining, construction, agriculture, and/or industrial applications is disclosed. The energy usage monitoring system for a heavy machine comprises an energy storage providing electrical energy to at least one motor in an electrical circuit; a current sensor placed along the electrical circuit and measuring a plurality of current measurements of a current of the electrical circuit; and a controller receiving the current measurements. The controller and/or method determines a start time and an end time of a task performed by the heavy machine; stores the current measurements during the task; and determines an amount of energy consumed during the task from the current measurements.
