To overcome the challenges that arise with the decarbonisation of off-highway vehicles, we pursue a technology-open approach. Thereby, we evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of available technologies and energy carriers. In the field of combustion, the focus of our research and development activities lies on multiple solutions to cover the needs different applications may bring fourth in the future. Being a promising, carbon-free energy source, hydrogen is one of the options to power a combustion engine. It builds a bridge to other alternate fuels and proves to be a crucial player in the transition to a sustainable world.

What is the purpose of using fibre composite solutions? CRP offers characteristics equivalent to those of steel components at a much lower weight. Therefore, we set forth our research efforts to ensure even greater weight savings, while maintaining the same level of performance.

In this way, we contribute significantly to the increase in efficiency and saving of resources in many industrial sectors. We are currently examining new ways of integrating CRP composites in series production.
