Farm tractors and construction equipment are prime candidates for electrification. They don't go very far and need a lot of torque
You might be surprised. During planting, and harvest times farm tractors will literally be running 24hours per day for weeks straight. Doing hundreds of miles in circles. There is absolutely no time to stop and charge.
Some Construction equipment is available in Electric, but often there is no power at the job site until most of the equipment use is finished.
