The Off-Highway Podcast

Off-Highway Podcast - with Holger Pietzsch (Moog Construction)

Today on our Off-Highway podcast, Alastair has a chat to Holger (HoPi) Pietzsch, Director of Business Development at Moog Construction, about how modular energy systems could help transform the path to electrification and challenges seen in construction sites adapting to zero-emission.
HoPi introduces Moog's innovative solutions, including the ZQuip modular energy modules designed to convert diesel-powered machines to electric and support multiple applications like fast charging and zero-emission power generation.
The discussion in this episode covers the practical nature of the construction industry, emphasizing the importance of efficiency and the challenges posed by a lack of standardization. The slow adoption of electrified machinery is attributed to policy and funding gaps - we talk about a system-level approach to electrification, considering the entire job site's energy needs.
The conversation touches on the competitive pressures from Chinese OEMs and the need for European and American companies to innovate in energy efficiency and machine control. HoPi remains optimistic about the industry's recovery and growth prospects.
Join us for an insightful discussion on the future of construction technology and the steps needed to drive innovation and sustainability in the industry.
