Liebherr has revealed that its mining and components divisions will collaborate with Bruno Generators Group (BGG) to explore low-emission power generation using green ammonia as fuel
Having already explored the potential of ammonia for dual-fuel internal combustion engines, Liebherr will now join forces with BGG, a company known for its expertise in the design, development, and production of power generators, battery energy storage systems, and mobile energy solutions.
“We’re thrilled to be working with BGG in this incredibly exciting project. Their innovative mindset and proven track record in delivering low-emission solutions are a perfect match for us as we work towards our zero emissions targets,” said Oliver Weiss, executive vice-president of R&D, engineering, and production at Liebherr-Mining Equipment SAS. “Our combustion engines business unit saw promising results from ammonia as a low and zero-emission power source after several test bench runs, and we’re eager to capitalise on this to provide even more zero-emission options for our customers.”
Sustainable solutions
Renato Bruno, CEO of BGG, expressed, “We are very proud to partner and join forces with Liebherr Mining on this project. Together, we share a common vision with an unwavering commitment to sustainability, and we aim to lead the industry in responsible practices.
“This partnership is a significant milestone in our pursuit of sustainable solutions for the benefit of our customers in the mining sector. By combining and blending our expertise, we will further enhance our innovation mindset and accelerate our journey toward a net-zero future.”
