Liebert Ingenieure, founded in 1996, is an independent engineering firm specializing in the consulting, planning, and management of technical building systems, particularly for green and sustainable construction. The company is headquartered in Berlin, which has become its largest office among four locations and hosts more than 55 experts in technical building equipment working from 1,100 square metres of workspace. The firm’s Berlin branch was established in the early 2000s and has grown through steady expansion and a focus on high-profile, technically demanding projects.
Under the leadership of founder Thomas Liebert, the company has developed a reputation for engineering complex, energy-efficient, and carbon-neutral solutions for office buildings, hospitals, laboratories, residential, and industrial facilities. One notable early project is the high-rise ward block at Charité Berlin, one of Europe’s largest university hospitals, including a new building with 15 operating theatres, which marked a milestone for the firm’s Berlin operations.
Liebert Ingenieure provides integrated planning and implementation of advanced systems such as rainwater and greywater use, heat recovery, geothermal and solar energy, photovoltaics, direct and solar cooling, as well as building and energy management systems. The firm aligns closely with major green building certification schemes (DGNB, LEED, BREEAM), and several client properties have achieved DGNB Gold and LEED Platinum status. Recently, the firm has contributed to pioneering projects like self-sufficient residential buildings spanning highways, targeting not just energy neutrality but a climate-positive balance over the building lifecycle.
