Zero-Emission Off-Highway Machinery Conference: Advancing Sustainable Design & Development in Berlin, Germany
The off-highway machinery industry has entered a decisive phase in its transition toward zero emissions. Electrification Off-Highway is no longer experimental and has become a core focus in design and development across OEMs and suppliers. As implementation scales, the industry is placing greater emphasis on system integration, energy efficiency, and real-world performance. Battery-electric, hybrid, hydrogen, and fuel cell technologies are increasingly combined to meet demanding operational and regulatory requirements across Europe. This Zero-Emission Off-Highway Machinery Conference is dedicated to addressing these challenges and accelerating the shift toward clean, efficient, and intelligent machinery.
On 27ā28 May 2026, the 8th Design & Development of Zero-Emission Off-Highway Machinery Europe (DZOM EU 2026) will take place in Berlin, Germany. This exclusive two-day event will unite senior leaders from R&D, engineering, powertrain development, sustainability, and innovation to explore next-generation propulsion technologies, digital engineering solutions, sustainable fuels, and EU regulatory developments shaping the future of off-highway machinery.
Driving Innovation at the Zero-Emission Machinery Show
Throughout the zero-emission machinery show, participants will gain deep technical insights into electrified powertrains, energy management systems, power electronics, Off-Highway Thermal Management, and digital development tools. The tradefair will showcase cutting-edge solutions across Off-Highway Battery systems, hydrogen and fuel cell technologies, software platforms, and system integration approaches that support the transition to zero-emission off-highway applications. These innovations are critical for improving efficiency, durability, and real-world performance.
A strong emphasis will also be placed on Electrification Off-Highway architectures, including battery-electric and hybrid solutions tailored for non-road mobile machinery (NRMM). Experts will explore innovations in Off-Highway Battery development, thermal management optimization, and next-generation NRMM Hydraulics systems, addressing real-world challenges such as energy density, heat dissipation, and system efficiency. These advancements are essential for achieving reliable Zero-Emission Off-Highway machinery in demanding operating environments.
Advancing Engineering Excellence at the Zero-Emission Machinery Event
Experts at the event will share technical case studies and strategies covering powertrain integration, validation and testing, lifecycle sustainability, and regulatory compliance. Discussions will focus on overcoming development challenges, balancing performance with emissions targets, and accelerating time to market for zero-emission solutions. This zero-emission machinery conference will provide actionable insights to help engineering teams optimize design decisions and deliver scalable, future-ready machinery platforms.
Connect and Collaborate at the Zero-Emission Machinery Tradefair
Beyond the technical sessions, the zero-emission machinery tradefair will offer valuable networking opportunities to connect with peers, exchange real-world experience, and engage with solution providers across the value chain. Attendees will interact with OEMs, suppliers, research institutes, regulatory bodies, and industry associations working together to accelerate zero-emission innovation across agriculture, construction, mining, and material handling sectors.
Join Us in Berlin for the Future of Zero-Emission Off-Highway Machinery
Be part of the zero-emission machinery conference that is shaping the next generation of off-highway equipment. Discover how advanced powertrain technologies, digital innovation, and cross-industry collaboration are driving the transition to sustainable machinery. This premier show will deliver the insights, strategies, and connections needed to lead the future of zero-emission off-highway machinery in Europe.
As the transition accelerates, key focus areas such as Zero-Emission Off-Highway systems, Electrification Off-Highway machinery, and Hybridization Off-Highway platforms are becoming central to engineering strategies. OEMs are increasingly investing in Off-Highway Battery technologies, advanced Off-Highway Thermal Management systems, and efficient NRMM Hydraulics to improve performance, durability, and energy efficiency. This conference will highlight how these critical technologies are integrated to enable scalable, compliant, and high-performing off-highway machinery across construction, agriculture, and mining sectors.
