Hydrogen-powered asphalt? Benninghoven’s new burner could cut CO₂ by 41%

May 19, 2025

Global Product Launch: Hydrogen takes center stage in road building as Benninghoven unveils its revolutionary multi-fuel hydrogen burner. Capable of slashing CO₂ emissions from asphalt production by up to 41%, this burner supports up to four fuels simultaneously, including hydrogen, biogas, and LPG — without stopping production. Already running in Norway, it's a major leap toward carbon-neutral roads.

  • The Path to Climate-Neutral Road Construction
    October 1, 2023
    Machine manufacturers and construction companies around the globe are currently searching for ways to achieve the goal of climate-neutral construction. The challenge here is to successively reduce emissions of CO2 and other harmful gases (summarized to CO2 equivalents: CO2e) around the world to zero over the coming decades. In the road construction sector, this transformation is inextricably linked to the improvement and further development of production and working processes. In the future, machines and construction materials will also be assessed based on the climate-harmful emissions arising from their production and use. However, the focus should not be on individual machines, but on the entire process leading up to the finished product – a road. Ultimately, the decisive factor is the emissions generated per kilometer of newly built or rehabilitated road – the “CO2e per work done”.
