In a collaborative move
with the W3C Consortium, Siemens and Microsoft have announced their commitment
to converge the Digital Twin Definition Language (DTDL) with the Thing
Description standard from international standards organization, W3C.
New research from Siemens Financial services explains how manufacturers are in a race against time to gain competitive advantage from Industry 4.0 investment, before the “tipping point” of majority adoption. A must-read for future focused manufacturing financial managers, the Whitepaper explains how Finance 4.0 solutions are providing practical methods of helping companies to urgently invest in Industry 4.0 and gain early mover advantage.
Almost 10 billion
people will live on our planet by 2050, most of them in urban areas. About 40
percent of all energy used globally is consumed in buildings, and another one
third by industries. But resources are finite.
Resilient, adaptive, and efficient infrastructure, enabled by digitalization,
is key to sustainability. Taking action to tackle climate change and other
global sustainability issues is an urgency. With buildings and electrification
increasingly growing together and becoming more and more digitalized, they can
support the sustainable infrastructure transition and create more livable
environments.At the Light +
Building 2022 trade fair, Siemens will showcase its vision of digitalization as
the key pillar of the infrastructure transition. Our motto at the show is
“Smart infrastructure is sustainable infrastructure”, outlining our innovations
that will make this possible.Visit us at Light + Building 2022 in Frankfurt am
Main, October 2 - 6, in hall 11.0, B56.

- Independent analyst firm ranks Siemens Smart Infrastructure as a leader in IoT platforms for smart buildings
Siemens Smart Infrastructure has been ranked as a leading provider of IoT platforms for smart buildings by independent analyst firm Verdantix. The latest edition of Verdantix’s ‘Green Quadrant: IoT Platforms for Smart Buildings 2022’ report analyzed 17 IoT platforms for smart buildings, and evaluated Siemens Smart Infrastructure to be among the leading providers of IoT technology which addresses key priorities for real estate leaders.
- New Building X offering enables remote monitoring and intervention, real-time notification, as well as efficient and predictive maintenance
- The Fire Apps – Fire Manager, Fire Connect – and Fire API are now available on Building X, part of Siemens Xcelerator
- Building X supports customers on their digital transformation and sustainability journey
Siemens Smart Infrastructure is expanding its fire safety offering on Building X through newly launched applications and an application programming interface (API) to increase transparency, decrease response time in case of incidents, and enhance maintenance processes for service providers. Building X is a digital building platform that supports customers to digitalize, manage, and optimize their building operations. This leads to an enhanced user experience, increased performance, and improved sustainability. It is part of Siemens Xcelerator, an open digital business platform that enables customers to accelerate their digital transformation easier, faster and at scale.
- New data center in Tallinn, Estonia, targets Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) value of 1.2, against industry average of around 1.6
- Siemens’ AI-powered software optimizes cooling for energy efficiency and reliable operation of critical infrastructure
- Customized power distribution systems from Siemens ensure reliable, safe power supply to the data center
- Data center is powered by renewable energy, with ability to sell waste heat
Siemens has deployed integrated data center
management software at the largest and most energy efficient data center in the
Baltic region. The building management software (BMS), the energy and power
management software (EPMS) and the White Space Cooling Optimization (WSCO) help
Greenergy Data Centers to lower energy usage, ensure thermal protection and
manage reliable operation of the critical infrastructure.
- Siemens launches study of 1,400 executives globally revealing regional, city and industry insights regarding the infrastructure transition across energy systems, mobility and buildings
- Decarbonization is a top priority within the infrastructure transition, but progress is too slow
- Over 50% of executives believe decarbonization is a competitive advantage, but less than half believe their country has an effective decarbonization strategy
- Technology and digitalization key levers of a successful infrastructure transition
Siemens Smart Infrastructure has released key insights into the divisive nature of the infrastructure transition in a new report, titled “Siemens Infrastructure Transition Monitor 2023: The Great Divide on The Path to Net Zero.” Data from the report reveals that there is limited alignment on priorities and how best to progress towards a decarbonized and resource-efficient world. Whilst more than half of people surveyed believe the infrastructure transition is accelerating in their region, a quarter of participants - senior executives from seven major industry groups - said that progress is “too slow”, while 29 percent believe progress is “coordinated”, and 31 percent describe it as “on target”.
