- Building technology installed in all rooms of “The Circle” complex
- End-to-end solution for energy supply of all buildings
- Certified LEED Platinum by the US Green Building Council
The Circle at Zurich Airport is a new 30,000 m2 building complex that features shops, restaurants, services, hotels and a conference center under one roof. Siemens installed over 30,000 components for the building and energy technology of the large complex, making an active contribution to its sustainable design. The company’s technology ensures the daily 25,000 visitors to The Circle experience a safe and energy-efficient environment.
- Bus depot to be equipped with charging and power distribution technology
- 23 charging stations supply eBuses with 150 kW each
- Easy installation of power distribution system in the existing building thanks to busbar trunking technology
Siemens Smart Infrastructure has received an order from the Regensburg transport authority “das Stadtwerk Regensburg.Mobilität GmbH” in Germany to equip the bus depot in the Markomannenstrasse for electromobility. Siemens will supply the charging infrastructure as well as the power distribution technology. Operations are scheduled to start in 2021. Electric buses were first introduced in the city center of Regensburg in 2017.
- More flexibility thanks to KNX communication capability
- Less wiring reduces cost and saves inputs/outputs on the controller
- Ideal for noise sensitive applications thanks to <28 dB noise level
Siemens Smart Infrastructure has upgraded its range of SSA
actuators for small valves by adding new features for more energy efficient and
versatile hydronic room applications. The updated SSA actuators now offer more
flexibility due to their broad control possibilities - from analog control to
KNX communication capabilities for room solutions and fast integration into
connected systems. While using the same cable for communication and power, the
customer saves time and cost. Thanks to the operating mode ‘nightmode’, the
actuators are more silent than ever, with less than 28 dB. This makes them
ideal for use in noise-sensitive areas, such as hotels, recording studios,
meeting rooms and libraries.

This enables evengreater customization to protect lives, assets and business continuity.
- Aral to install more than 100 ultra-fast chargers at 30 gas stations in Germany until end of first quarter 2021; further roll-out planned
- Siemens to provide intelligent grid connection for growing power demand
- Cloud connection creates transparency across all locations, increases efficiency and reliability
Aral AG, a subsidiary of the bp group in Germany, has tasked Siemens Smart Infrastructure with expanding the grid connection at 30 selected gas stations. The installation of intelligent substations allows Aral to upgrade its gas stations with ultra-fast charging technology for electric vehicles. The installation is expected to be completed by the end of February.

- Monte Rosa Hut in Swiss Alps modernized with new battery storage solution
- Solar power ensures sustainable, efficient energy supply
- 8.6 tons of lead batteries replaced with 2.7 tons of lithium batteries
The “Bergkristall” (Mountain Crystal), a mountain hut situated at an altitude of 2,883 meters in the Monte Rosa Massif of the Valais Alps, has been largely energy self-sufficient since 2010. Along with thermal solar collectors, a photovoltaic system integrated in the hut’s southern facade ensures a high degree of energy self-sufficiency and a reliable energy supply. Since 2010, all of the building’s performance data, such as solar energy generated and battery capacity, have been bundled in Siemens Navigator, the cloud-based building performance platform.
- One single device for lines of up to 500 km
- Monitoring for powered, unpowered or grounded lines
- Highly precise localization of line faults
- Simplifies maintenance and increases network reliability
Siemens Smart Infrastructure recently launched its new PowerLink CM, a condition monitoring solution for high-voltage AC and DC transmission lines. To ensure reliable power supply, optimize grid utilization and prevent blackouts the device is designed to precisely locate faults in the transmission grid and continuously track line conditions. One single PowerLink CM device is sufficient to monitor line lengths of up to 500 km. Faults as well as line condition can be detected in powered, unpowered or grounded lines. Fault reports are received by the affected substation and are forwarded from there to the control room. For continuous line monitoring, the device can be connected to MindSphere, the open cloud-based Internet of Things (IoT) platform from Siemens, which facilitates transparent processing of all line data in the cloud. This allows grid operators to analyze status reports and optimize maintenance activities.
- Charging, medium and low-voltage technology for two carports at Hamburger Hochbahn AG’s Alsterdorf bus depot
- Space-saving installation as technical center on carport’s roof
- Important step for transitioning to climate-friendly local transport in Hamburg
Siemens Smart Infrastructure won a major contract from Hamburger Hochbahn, the largest local transport provider in the Hanseatic city. Siemens will equip two of the six carports at the Alsterdorf bus depot with a total of 96 charging points as well as medium and low-voltage technology. Operations are scheduled to start in summer 2021. With a total of 240 parking spaces, it is one of the largest and most modern bus depots for electric buses in Europe.
- FIA and Siemens extend partnership to provide the ‘FIA Mobility Advocate’— a unique software and hardware toolkit — for FIA Mobility Member Clubs to strengthen advocacy of future transport solutions
As an
“Official Supplier of Urban Mobility Advocacy Solutions” for the Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA), the governing body of world motor sport and
the federation of the world's leading motoring organisations, Siemens plans to
develop a toolkit of software solutions for FIA Member Clubs to help them
provide an evidence-based approach to advocate for the implementation of mobility
policies and strategies. The ‘FIA Mobility Advocate’ combines modeling for
mobility, autonomous vehicles, and the environment, with enhanced analysis
