From a technology perspective, we continue to assume a leading role in the ongoing development of the sustainable combustion engine. We believe that employing biofuels, synthetic fuels and green hydrogen presents an even greater opportunity to cut carbon emissions. We are primarily concentrating on exploiting further emission savings potential with technologies designed to increase energy efficiency.
Successful decarbonization is a key strategic goal at MAHLE. We are working flat out on promising technologies for the low-emission mobility of tomorrow with a focus on a variety of engine platforms of the future. Only if the state and society allow all technologies for sustainable transport will the transport transition succeed for the climate, the economy and society.
MAHLE is committed to its responsibility towards the environment and takes the expectations of its stakeholders seriously. We have therefore integrated global environmental issues into our business strategy. At MAHLE, we believe that there is not only one technology pathway to zero-emission transport. The future developments will vary depending on the energy matrix of each region of the world and should consider environmental, social and economic issues in a balanced way. For example, our region has a privileged position to address its environmental challenges with biofuels (ethanol, biodiesel, biomethane), which can make an immediate contribution to the decarbonization of road transport.
Our business model, technological pioneering and good governance provide crucial support in today's turbulent environment. We have adapted products for the internal combustion engine that can run on biofuels and we are also developing engine components for the use of hydrogen as a fuel. We see potential for the expansion of our product portfolio and segments, and we will take advantage of market opportunities for launching new products, suitably aligned with our competencies.
