A soldier can carry multiple batteries and have fresh ones delivered to them while the empty ones are recharged. A trade-off to make the hammer lighter and more mobile. Meanwhile, a pneumatic hammer needs a compressor, which in turns needs a power source, be it electricity or petrol. Making it a much heavier and unwieldy. More of a specialist weapon.
