- The Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft commissions a research factory for battery cells with a capacity of up to 200 MWh in Münster, Germany
- Testing, implementation, and optimization of near-series production under real conditions of battery cells – for the automotive industry, among others
- Siemens is a production and building technology partner in this ecosystem
According to a study by
the Fraunhofer Institute for Systems and Innovation Research [Fraunhofer ISI],
battery production capacity in Europe alone will quadruple by 2025 from 124
gigawatt hours in 2022 to over 500 gigawatt hours. By 2030, this figure is expected
to increase tenfold to up to 1.5 terawatt hours.
- Prototype Megawatt Charging System [MCS] from Siemens successfully delivered a 1MW charge
- The new technology highlights the potential for megawatt charging to redefine long haul trucking

- Siemens makes automation easy with the first generative AI-powered product for engineering in an industrial environment
- Siemens Industrial Copilot accelerates the generation of complex automation code, reduces development times, and increases productivity
- TIA Portal connection offers customers SCL code generation, customization of HMI visualization, and document search in natural language
- Available for download from the Siemens Xcelerator marketplace starting in summer 2024
At Hannover Messe 2024, Siemens presents the first generative artificial intelligence (AI) product for engineering in an industrial environment. The Siemens Industrial Copilot, the generative AI-powered assistant, is now seamlessly connected to the Totally Integrated Automation (TIA) Portal. This will enable engineering teams to find the right help topic and to generate a basic visualization and code faster for programmable logic controllers (PLC). As a result, they will be able to significantly reduce their workload and offload repetitive tasks to the Siemens Industrial Copilot. In addition, the engineering of complex tasks will become less susceptible to errors. This in turn reduces development times and boosts quality and productivity over the long term. The Siemens Industrial Copilot for TIA Portal Engineering will be available for download from the Siemens Xcelerator marketplace starting in summer 2024.
