the industry needs today.
Why now: The Innovation Gap
Decarbonizing heavy-duty machines can’t wait. It requires certified systems built from day one, because climate targets and regulations won’t wait either.
Technologies like batteries and hydrogen exist, but integrating them into working heavy-duty systems is complex. Certification often comes too late, leading to costly delays and wasted resources. IntegratR closes that gap. We bring integration, testing, and certification together to turn zero-emission ideas into market-ready systems – faster and with less risk.
- Accelerating system integration
- Reduced time-to-market
- Reduced technical and compliance risk
- Stronger compliance makes projects easier to fund
Why educational & research institutions participate
At IntegratR, education & research meets industry. Students, employees, customers and professionals work side-by-side on real zero-emission machines. This bridges the gap between theory and practice, ensuring a skilled workforce that is ready to operate, maintain, and build the future of heavy-duty equipment.
- Direct connections between students, graduates, and industry leaders
- Attractive internships and research opportunities on-site

Our Future flow
1
Concept
Companies bring in ideas,
components or technologies.
2
Integration
Technologies are combined into working
zero-emission systems on our campus.
3
Prototype
Machines are built and refined in shared
workshops and facilities.
4
Testing & Certification
Safety and compliance are validated,
including unique large-scale EMC testing.
5
Validation
Real duty cycles are tested at the demo site with quay,
hydrogen refuelling and charging
test facility.
6
First-series & Training
Initial production lines and a training
centre prepare machines and people
for market launch.
Every stage happens on our campus. Methods and protocols are shared, knowledge is actively exchanged, and best practices are openly disseminated, ensuring faster feedback and consistent data. With a shared goal: Reduced time to market.
