- Migration
to the highest grade of automation (GoA4)
- Delivery
of onboard equipment for 226 new trains
- Project
will be commissioned in five phases; fully automated by 2033
- Total
order volume of approximately 270m Euros
Siemens Mobility will upgrade the entire 170 kilometers long S-bane
network in Copenhagen to the highest grade of automation (GoA4 technology) to
enable unattended train operations starting with the first phase in 2030. Respective
contracts have been signed with Banedanmark (BDK) and
DSB recently including the necessary signaling equipment for trains and
wayside. GoA4 will allow the operator to run more trains in the entire system, enhance
the level of passenger experience, secure the current punctuality rate and will
future-proof the network. The new contracts have a total volume of about 270m
Euros and build on the original contract from 2011 to equip the Copenhagen
S-train network with the Communications-Based Train Control System [CBTC].

Generative
AI for industries: Siemens Industrial Copilot to be available on the Siemens Xcelerator Marketplace this summer
- Siemens and Schaeffler to sign memorandum of understanding to expand work to integrate Siemens Industrial Copilot into all areas of industry
- Live on stage: Siemens and NVIDIA show how they enable the industrial metaverse together
- World premiere of “Electrification X” for a wide range of IoT software-as-a-service offerings for transforming electrification infrastructure
- German Chancellor Olaf Scholz to be among high-ranking visitors at Hannover Messe’s largest booth
The industrial sector
is in need of digital transformation toward greater sustainability and resilience.
Value creation and actions for the planet must be brought into balance. Companies
need to do more with fewer resources. At Hannover Messe, Siemens will show how
proven, cutting-edge technology and strong partnerships enable industries to
become both more sustainable and more competitive. Visitors at Booth D53 in
Hall 9 will experience showcases featuring core technologies for digital and
sustainable transformation in the automotive, food, chemicals and
semiconductors industries.
- At €19.2 billion on a comparable basis, revenue was nearly unchanged year-over-year (Q2 2023: €19.4 billion)
- Orders in Q2 2024 reached €20.5 billion (Q2 2023: €23.6 billion), a decline of 12 percent on a comparable basis
- At €2.5 billion, Profit Industrial Business was close to the prior-year level (Q2 2023: €2.6 billion)
- Net income totaled €2.2 billion (Q2 2023: €3.6 billion); net income in Q2 2023 benefited from a tax-free gain of €1.6 billion from the partial reversal of an impairment of Siemens’ stake in Siemens Energy AG
- Free cash flow all-in at Group level was €1.3 billion (Q2 2023: €2.3 billion)
- Outlook at Group level confirmed
Siemens delivered solid performance in the second quarter, successfully meeting the high demand for digitalization and sustainability technology. Notably, the industrial software business showed strong growth with particularly high demand in the semiconductor industry. Demand from customers for the construction of data centers also showed strong momentum. Currently muted demand in the short-cycle automation business at Digital Industries, particularly in China and Europe, was largely offset by strong revenue development at Smart Infrastructure and Mobility. In addition, Siemens took a key step in focusing its portfolio with the sale of Innomotics to KPS Capital Partners for €3.5 billion.
- New AI-based apps for more efficient operation of water infrastructures available on the Siemens Xcelerator marketplace
- Easy integration into existing infrastructure without specialist knowledge
- Siemens to showcase its digitalization and automation portfolio for more sustainability in the water sector at IFAT 2024
Siemens, a leading technology company, has expanded its software portfolio for the water industry, enabling its customers to optimize their plant operations using artificial intelligence - without the need for technical expertise. These self-service solutions enable users to address the most pressing issues in water and wastewater operations: reducing water loss, preventing pollution from sewers, and ensuring the reliability of treatment assets. The effect of these applications is also a contribution to greater sustainability overall, as the world's water resources can be better protected. "Digital technologies have not yet been widely adopted in the water sector so far," says Anja Eimer, General Manager Global Water Business at Siemens. "The existing OT and IT device landscape of is complex, skilled workers are in short supply, and the business benefits of many digital applications have often been unclear. With our new software offerings, we are adressing these conditions and enabling water companies to perform AI-based operational analyses."
