agreement includes an order for 10 Smartron locomotives
- Sustainable
and efficient cross-border rail transport in Europe
Cargounit, the largest independent locomotive leasing
company in Poland, has signed an agreement with Siemens Mobility for the
purchase of 90 Vectron MS locomotives, of which 30 have been immediately called
up. Additionally, a second contract was signed for the delivery of ten Smartron
locomotives. The first deliveries are planned for 2025. Siemens Mobility and Cargounit's
collaboration dates back to 2018, when a single Vectron MS locomotive was
purchased. Cargounit is the largest customer for Siemens Mobility locomotives
in Poland. With this new order, the company will have a total of 66 Vectrons
and 18 Smartrons in its fleet.
- Gridscale X™ software enables utilities to scale grid capacity and increase
DER visibility, essential for grid decarbonization
- With Gridscale X, grid operators can accelerate their digital transformation
in the planning, operations, and maintenance phase
- Gridscale X is part of the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio, complemented by
its extensive and open partner ecosystem
Siemens has announced the launch of Gridscale X, paving the way towards the vision of
autonomous grid management, accelerating digital transformation for grid operators at
speed and scale.
- Siemens’ next generation grid management software, Gridscale X™ DER Insights, supports goal to achieve net-zero emissions in the US by 2050
- The software provides better visibility of behind the meter distributed energy resources (DERs) and their impact on the grid
- These insights are critical for better grid planning and asset health, and
ensuring the success of customer programs
- Gridscale X DER Insights is part of the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio
Siemens has announced its latest Gridscale X software offering enabling distribution utilities
to gain better visibility and insights of distributed energy resources (DERs) behind the meter
to increase grid capacity. With the rising number of DERs, this causes operational
challenges for distribution networks not originally designed to operate with these resources.
Gaining insights into where they are and how DERs are operating is a critical first step in
addressing the problems and subsequently taking advantage of these resources for grid
optimization.

immediately called up. The initial call includes 24 multisystem locomotives for
use in AC and DC networks, as well as 46 AC locomotives. With this order, Railpool's
Vectron fleet will grow to a total of 228 locomotives. The framework agreement
includes Vectron variants that can operate in up to 16 countries and on various
European rail corridors (north-south and east-west).
- Innovative Veloce CS architecture unifies hardware emulation, enterprise prototyping and software prototyping to accelerate verification and validation cycles by 10x and helps to reduce total cost of ownership by up to 5x
- The Veloce CS software is reusable across all platforms, helping to eliminate new learning requirements and accelerating full system workload execution and debug times by 10x
- Innovative, modular and scalable interconnectable blade footprint eliminates fixed-size chassis, delivering hardware-assisted tools for all size designs – from small to very large
Siemens Digital Industries Software launched
today the Veloce™ CS hardware-assisted verification and validation system. In a
first for the EDA (Electronic Design Automation) industry, Veloce CS incorporates
hardware emulation, enterprise prototyping and software prototyping and is built
on two highly advanced integrated circuits (ICs) – Siemens’ new, purpose-built Crystal accelerator chip for
emulation and the AMD Versal™ Premium VP1902 FPGA adaptive SoC (System-on-a-chip)
for enterprise and software prototyping.
- Siemens provides sustainable heating, cooling and ventilation solutions and thus, supports partners and customers in the decarbonization of buildings
- One of the highlights will include an energy efficient magnetic expansion valve, with which OEMs can gain up to 21% more heating capacity
- Also being showcased is a heat pump automation system as part of Siemens Xcelerator
At this year's Mostra Convegno Expocomfort (MCE) trade show, Siemens Smart Infrastructure will present a broad range of innovative and sustainable products, systems, and solutions for Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM) and installers to accelerate the decarbonization of real-estate. The global marketplace and event, that takes place from March 12 to 15 in Milan, Italy, brings together companies and industry experts from the heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration (HVACR), renewable energy sources and energy efficiency fields.

- Siemens commissioned a study of 100 decision makers from the US and Canadian utility industry to understand how they are adapting to the surge in distributed energy resources (DERs)
- Findings indicate that limited visibility and understanding of DER behavior creates operational challenges and impacts grid performance
- Solutions such as distributed energy resource management systems (DERMS) exist, but data shows adoption to be slow
Siemens has released key insights into
how electric utilities in the United States and Canada are managing the rapid
adoption of behind the meter distributed energy resources (DERs) in its new
report “Seeing behind the meter: How electric utilities are adapting to the
surge in distributed energy resources.”
