Another year lies behind us: finally, without restrictions, but with many personal meetings, milestones achieved and joint events! We would like to sincerely thank you, our customers, and partners, for the many years of good cooperation.

One should celebrate the parties as they come. That's what we thought as a team and after a very challenging year, we got together last Friday for the Christmas party.

December 6, 2023, was a special day for the team at the Aldenhoven Testing Center - especially for our customers, the Chair of Production Engineering of E-Mobility Components (PEM) at RWTH Aachen University: an e-truck prototype completed its first test drives powered by hydrogen on our test site. This marked a milestone in the "SeLv" electric truck research project.

Today is already December 1. Even with the Christmas spirit rising, we are already planning with joy for spring – the AutoFrühling Aldenhoven.

Hand on heart, how many St. Martin's processions, have you and your children been to this week? Like it is common in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Belgium, and my other countries. Or do you accompany them yourself as a firefighter or police officer? Thank you for that!
