SPD parliamentary group visits Liebherr at Bauma
On 12 April 2019, the SPD parliamentary group visited Liebherr at Bauma in Munich and spoke to family shareholders Patricia Rüf and Stéfanie Wohlfahrt.
SPD Bavaria focuses on the following in the energy policy: Energy efficiency and the reduction of CO2 emissions. In precisely these areas Liebherr has something to show at this year’s Bauma: from the electrically driven truck mixer to the e-mining excavator, the new green technologies impressed the SPD parliamentary group. The party explored the subject of alternative drives and the future construction site in depth with the two family shareholders Patricia Rüf and Stéfanie Wohlfahrt. The Liebherr Group is working on the idea of an emissions-free construction site with different drive concepts. The SPD parliamentary group ended their visit with a guided tour of the trade fair stand and the presentation of individual exhibits such as the fully electric LH 110 C port material handler.
The Liebherr Group has a total of 5 sites in Bavaria and is therefore a relevant player in the Bavarian economic and energy policies.
