- Siemens Mobility and SWEG open depot for
battery-powered trains in Offenburg
- New home for sustainable mobility and
predictive maintenance to ensure 100% availability of the fleet
- 27 zero-emission Siemens trains expected to
enter service in Network 8 “Ortenau” in mid-December 2023 – a first in Germany
- SWEG and the State of Baden-Württemberg sign
transport contract for Network 8
- First public test run of Mireo Plus B battery
train completed
After only
one-and-a-half years of construction, Siemens Mobility is opening a new railway
workshop in Offenburg together with Südwestdeutsche Landesverkehrs-GmbH (SWEG).
The new, modern depot will be used to maintain the Siemens Mireo Plus B
battery-powered trains that are expected to enter service in the Network 8
“Ortenau” as of mid-December 2023 – a first in Germany. SWEG will lease the
depot to Siemens Mobility for 30 years from June 2023. As part of the opening
ceremony today, the Mireo Plus B also took its first public test run on the
route between Offenburg and Gengenbach. In addition, Baden-Württemberg’s
Transport Minister Winfried Hermann and SWEG CEOs Tobias Harms and Dr. Thilo
Grabo signed the transport contract for Network 8 transferring operation of the
network from the state to SWEG for 15 years as of December 10, 2023.
- Predictive Service Analyzer provides information about anomalies in the drive system
- Increased plant availability by up to 30 percent through reduced production downtime
- AI-based algorithm for drive systems
As part of Predictive
Services for Drive Systems, Siemens is expanding its offering at the Hannover
Messe with an edge application. The Predictive Service Analyzer indicates
defects in the drive system at an early stage before they affect the entire
production. As a result, unplanned production downtime can be avoided and
maintenance times can be scheduled in good time, increasing plant availability
by up to 30 percent. By scheduling maintenance and servicing activities based
on actual demand, this increases productivity by up to 10 percent. The Predictive
Service Analyzer's AI-based solution detects early signs of anomalies, such as
those indicating mechanical damage in the motor, including bearing damage,
imbalance, and misalignment, as well as critical operating conditions of the
frequency converter. The app assesses the severity of the defect and the
expected remaining runtime and can thus predict potential future failures.

- Siemens Mobility and Continental cooperate in manufacturing pantographs
for trucks
- Initiative of the Ministry of
Transport recommends eHighway on 4,000 kilometers of autobahn
Siemens Mobility and
Continental Engineering Services (CES) will cooperate in the future on the
development and manufacture of pantographs for trucks. The eHighway technology
from Siemens Mobility supplies trucks with electricity via an overhead line. The
cooperation aims to electrify key stretches of highway-networks in Germany’s autobahn network with
overhead contact lines and thus significantly reduce CO2emissions from
trucks. The new partnership combines expertise from two technology worlds:
Siemens Mobility is a specialist in rail electrification, Continental
Engineering Services is a development and production service provider for
automotive technologies. The two companies will now pool their know-how to
quickly achieve series production of truck pantographs.
