Our company’s research and development activities aiming the creation of sustainability

One of the biggest challenges of our time is to create technologies that can contribute to a sustainable living and the protection of our environment. Our company’s research and development department has also been continuously working towards this common goal. During this process, we have reached an important milestone: Mr. Norbert Biro and Mr. Daniel Szollosi, colleagues of our Technical Center, presented their research as guest lecturers on the 10th World Sustainability Forum held in Basel, Switzerland.

The main topic of their presentation held in front of an international audience focused on the reduction of diesel engine emissions. The conclusions presented during the presentation were based on their paper ‘Emission Quantification for Sustainable Heavy-Duty Transportation’, which was published in a special issue of MDPI Journal about Control System for Sustainable Urban Mobility, and was largely substantiated on the results of their own engineer PhD research.

Their presentation also focused on the “Well-to-Wheel” CO2 emissions of different propulsion systems, including electric, hydrogen and internal combustion engines. In the light of the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), ratified by the European Parliament and entered into force in January 2023, the presentation highlighted the importance of science-based governance in the field of transportation, presenting a new method to support effective decision-making.
