- 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
- Associated maintenance services for 30 years
The Société du Grand Paris (SGP), which owns the Grand Paris Express project, awarded the Siemens Mobility and Thales consortium with the delivery of the Automated Train Control system that uses wireless Communications-Based Train Control (CBTC) technology and the Operating Control Centers for the future new lines 15, 16 and 17, which will be completed by 2030. Siemens Mobility will design and implement the most advanced generation of its CBTC fully automated technology. It will complete the integration of the entire transportation system. Thales will design and implement the Operating Control Centers (centralized supervision of train traffic, energy systems, auxiliary equipment and digital information systems), as well as trackside equipment and a secure communication network.
- Demonstration running in California near two largest U.S. Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach
- Siemens truck electrification technology has potential to reduce emissions and improve air quality
Siemens and the "South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD)" are running a one-mile, zero-emission eHighway demonstration in the Californian city of Carson, U.S., near the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach. Three trucks hauling freight are running along the stretch of highway which uses Siemens technology to electrify select highway lanes via an overhead catenary system. This catenary system supplies the trucks with electric power, similar to how modern-day trolleys or streetcars are powered on many city streets. The system also allows for truck operation outside of the electrified sections of infrastructure.
Siemens has received an order from the Qatar Foundation for the turnkey construction of a tram system in the capital Doha aimed at transforming Qatar into a knowledge-based society. The order is worth more than 100 million euros. The scope of supply also includes signaling and communication systems, electrification as well as the depot equipment. Siemens will also be equipping four of the stations with platform edge doors. Nineteen Avenio trams will run on 11.5 kilometers of track without any overhead contact lines. The system will be installed on the university campus and serve 25 stations. The trams will be equipped with the Sitras HES energy storage system from Siemens, with energy being supplied at the tram stops.
