Siemens powers Italy’s green mobility transition with key electrification projects
73
charging points to support Autolinee Toscane’s zero-emission bus fleet in
Tuscany
120
IPLANET sites to be equipped with 300-400 kW Siemens chargers and renewable
energy integration technology
Proven
expertise in eBus and eTruck charging supports the transition to sustainable
transport
Siemens eMobility has been selected as the technology partner
for two major electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure projects in Italy.
Partnering with Autolinee Toscane and IPLANET, Siemens eMobility is driving the
electrification of public transportation and the transformation of petrol
stations into strategic service areas, further advancing sustainable mobility
in the region.

Siemens eMobility has been selected as the technology partner
for two major electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure projects in Italy.
Partnering with Autolinee Toscane and IPLANET, Siemens eMobility is driving the
electrification of public transportation and the transformation of petrol
stations into strategic service areas, further advancing sustainable mobility
in the region.
73 charging points for Autolinee Toscane S.p.A.
Siemens eMobility is electrifying multiple bus depots for
Autolinee Toscane, a major public transport operator and part of RATP DEV
Italia Group, in the cities of Florence, Prato and Lucca, supporting the
rollout of the company’s zero-emission bus fleet. Leveraging Siemens’
innovative charging infrastructure technology, this project ensures efficient
and reliable operations across Tuscany’s public transport network.
The project consists of a total of 73 SICHARGE UC charging
points, capable of supplying 100 and 150KW of power to charge electric
vehicles. In addition, Siemens supplies medium and low voltage electrical
distribution systems with switches equipped with IoT modules to ensure reliable
and transparent energy supply. Siemens eMobility also provides DepotFinity, a
software platform for monitoring, reporting, programming and managing charging
operations within the depots. The main benefits for Autolinee Toscane are the
monitoring of charging processes with the implementation of optimized smart charging
logics of loads based on the operator's service, pre-conditioning functionality
of vehicle batteries and reporting of the kilometers traveled by each
individual vehicle.
Advanced charging infrastructure for 120 IPLANET service
sites
In another project, IPLANET, a leading energy transition
solutions provider, has tasked Siemens eMobility with equipping over 120
logistics sites with advanced charging infrastructure, featuring integrated
Point of Sales (POS) systems compliant with Alternative Fuels Infrastructure
Regulation (AFIR), activation via app or QR code, and interactive screens
ensuring accessibility also for users with disabilities. The network includes
hundreds of 300-400 kW charging points, all fully remotely monitored through independent
connectivity channels to ensure high reliability and availability.
The sites also incorporate Siemens medium and low voltage
electrical distribution systems, scalable compact transformer substations, and
telecontrol capabilities, enabling integration with renewable energy sources. Additionally,
some of the turnkey service areas, including photovoltaic installations,
parking area battery energy storage systems (BESS), and facilities for
heavy-duty EV charging (e-trucks), are already operational.
“Driving sustainable mobility together”
“Projects like these underscore Siemens eMobility’s mission
to integrate sustainable mobility into everyday life. By combining cutting-edge
technology and strong partnerships, we’re helping to transform the
transportation and logistics sectors for a more sustainable future,” said
Markus Mildner, CEO of Siemens eMobility.
Siemens eMobility’s portfolio spans IoT-connected hardware,
software, and services for both AC and DC charging, supporting applications
from 11 kW to 1 MW. With a strong focus on the fast-growing eBus and eTruck
market, the company continues to lead the way in providing comprehensive
solutions tailored to diverse customer needs.
With over 100,000 charging points installed and 800 projects
completed in more than 60 countries, Siemens eMobility combines global
expertise with local execution. The partnerships with Autolinee Toscane and
IPLANET reaffirm its commitment to innovation, collaboration, and
sustainability in delivering impactful eMobility solutions.
