We are delighted to be showcasing our engine simulation software as an exhibitor at ATZ Live on 18th and 19th November 2025. The conference entitled 'Heavy-Duty Engines 2025' focuses on the drive to improve fuel consumption and reduce emissions across Commercial Vehicles, Agricultural and Construction Machinery, and Maritime applications.

The 20th international conference will take a practical look at system optimization and component development for compact engines. The conference will also show the progress made by engine manufacturers in the development of on-highway engines, among other things, in order to optimise drive systems in terms of fuel consumption and emissions.

Shaping the future of heavy-duty engines will, more than anything else, require the right framework conditions. There will not be an obligation to use a particular technology, as the number of applications and types of use is simply too great. While construction machines in urban areas, for example, can certainly be electrified, there will not be electric alternatives for ships available in the near future. Long periods of operation, TCO, and difficult operating conditions require a wide variety of solutions. This makes it all the more important to verify the applications individually and make them sustainable, whether it is through new technologies or by switching to different sources of energy.

The heavy-duty engines sector is more diverse than almost any other. The engines are used not only on the road, but also in construction machines, agricultural applications, stationary local power generation, and shipping. In addition, these engines run on a wide variety of sources of energy, in support of efforts to make their applications more climate-friendly or climate-neutral. These include gases such as hydrogen, methane, or biogas from climate-neutral production, as well as methanol, ammonia, or HVO in a liquid form.

In order to reflect this diversity, the program has been expanded, enabling the conference to provide new impetus and to highlight technology combinations and synergies as well as offering access to a wide network of high-profile specialists.

This conference will provide an opportunity for engine developers and designers of commercial vehicles, mobile machines, stationary systems, and marine engines to gain information on the very latest developments. The 20th conference will be supplemented by tours of Liebherr-Components and Liebherr-Mining Equipment.
