- Siemens' Sitraffic ESCoS roadside unit set to become a new industry standard for V2X technology
Siemens Mobility, Inc. is pleased to announce it has received OmniAir Certification for its Sitraffic ESCoS roadside unit (RSU), the first roadside unit to receive OmniAir's commercial, connected vehicle certification. Siemens' RSU is one of the few RSUs today that meet U.S. Department of Transportation FHWA specification version 4.1. Now with OmniAir's certification, this roadside unit is well-positioned to become the established standard and a key component for V2X device communications today.
- Order for 18 7-car trainsets and 50 power cars
- Delivery to begin in summer 2021
- Power car principle provides maximum flexibility
New trains for growing number of long-distance passengers: Deutsche Bahn (DB) is expanding its fleet and has ordered an additional eighteen 7-car ICE 4 trainsets and 50 more power cars from Siemens Mobility. With these new power cars, 50 ICE 4 trainsets, previously ordered in a 12-car configuration, can be extended to 13 cars. This flexible configuration is made possible by the train’s innovative traction drive technology and its completely new train control system. Delivery of the ordered 7-car trainsets is expected to begin in the summer of 2023. Delivery of the 13-car trainsets will begin after delivery of the 50 12-car trains is completed in 2021. The order has a total value of around €610 million. Bombardier Transportation will supply approximately one-third of the order.
- Metro Automation for Paris' future metro lines 15, 16 and 17 awarded
- The three new lines include 125 kilometers of tracks and 50 stations
- The project entails 12 phased sections and commissioning by 2030
- Most advanced signaling technology to equip 159 passenger trains and 27 work trains

Under the motto "Shaping connected mobility" at the InnoTrans, Siemens Mobility is presenting digital innovations in an increasingly networked "total mobility system." The solutions will make rail transport even more efficient, safer and reliable.
Siemens showcased its comprehensive oil and gas solutions at the Turbomachinery & Pump Symposium (TPS), September 18 – 20, 2018 at the George R. Brown Convention Center in Houston, TX. Oil and gas companies have some of the most complex physical and technical operational challenges of any business on the planet. To manage risks, control costs and optimize asset performance, oil and gas operators increasingly rely on digital technologies and analytics to improve efficiencies and safety for all aspects of oil and gas production, distribution and use. Leveraging 170 years of technological and engineering expertise, with extensive experience in operational technology (OT) and information technology (IT), Siemens' suite of innovative technologies deliver cutting-edge hard and software capabilities for equipment and solutions that enhance efficiency, predictability, reliability and safety for its customers.
The world's largest trade fair for transport technology – InnoTrans – was being held in Berlin from September 18 to 21. Once again, Siemens has showcased its products in Hall 4.2 and in the outdoor exhibition area.Digitalization is fundamentally transforming the mobility industry. It is improving the availability of vehicles and infrastructures, optimizing operations, and reducing efforts and costs. Reflecting these changes, digital innovations in a networked "Complete Mobility System" was the focus of Siemens' presentation at InnoTrans 2018. Following the motto "Shaping connected mobility," Siemens has showcased new, intelligent solutions that will make rail transport more efficient, safer and more reliable.
