- Up to three additional applications on one processor module
- Siapp eliminates need for additional hardware, saving space and costs
- Secure distributed data processing 24/7
Siemens Smart Infrastructure is expanding the options for distribution grid applications with the new Siapp, a software license for the Sicam A8000 automation and remote terminal unit. The Siapp application is based on the Sicam A8000 with the powerful CP-8050 processor module. Siapp allows up to three separate custom applications to be developed, parameterized and loaded onto the remote terminal unit. Only one runtime license is needed. Siapp complies with the strictest data security standards and benefits customers including major energy suppliers, municipal utilities and industrial companies.
- Assistance sought from the state of NRW, the federal government, and the EU
- Lighthouse project for the energy transition with international appeal
In planning, building, and operating an energy farm on the grounds of Nivelsteiner Sandwerke, the city of Herzogenrath plans to cover its energy demand with zero CO2 emissions by 2030. The signing of a cooperation agreement between GREEN Solar Herzogenrath GmbH and Siemens Energy has now marked an important milestone in achieving this goal. Based on this agreement, the partners will develop an economically viable concept aimed at seeking available funding from the state of North Rhine-Westphalia, the federal German government, and the EU for the long-standing mining region between Aachen, Germany, and the Netherlands.

- Long-term “BBB” issuer rating,
outlook stable
- S&P praises low indebtedness and
extensive liquidity
- First listing for Siemens Energy still
planned for September 28, 2020
In its first
credit rating, Siemens Energy AG, which will soon be operating as an
independent entity, has earned a solid investment grade rating from the S&P
Global rating agency (S&P). The company received a long-term issuer rating
of “BBB” with a stable outlook. The raters particularly praised the company’s
broad base in the energy sector, its low level of debt, and its extensive
liquidity.
- Greater comfort for passengers
- Environmentally friendly, energy-saving trains with proven technology
After the first C2 metro train from the first option in 2016 entered service in May, Stadtwerke München (SWM) has also called up the second and final options for 22 six-car metro trains from Siemens. When all trains are delivered, Münchner Verkehrsgesellschaft (MVG) will operate a total of 67 C2 trains on its system.
- Direct integration into Building Operator for control, alarming and energy reporting
- Expanded product range now available as 3-port valve
- New features such as Delta-T limitation control, make it possible to optimize plants with chillers and reduce consumption
The self-optimizing and dynamic Intelligent Valve from Siemens Smart Infrastructure has become more versatile, thanks to new features and applications for heating groups and air handling units. The device controls the flow, measures temperature and output and automatically adjusts the valve settings to the heat exchanger. The Intelligent Valve is connected to the cloud and now, for the first time, directly integrated into Building Operator, the Siemens cloud application for the remote monitoring of buildings. This makes it possible to control the Intelligent Valve and adjust its settings anytime and anywhere. For increased flexibility, the product range has been expanded to include 3-port valves, which allow variable-temperature and constant-flow control of the water supply (mixed circuits). New features such as Delta-T (DT) limitation control, differential pressure and flow temperature control ensure smooth and energy-efficient HVAC plant operation and enable the Intelligent Valve to be used in even more applications.
- Global partnership to being extended for another three years
- Cooperation involves FC Bayern’s soccer and basketball sections
- Strong focus on sustainability and digital solutions in infrastructure
After three
successful seasons, Siemens and FC Bayern Munich have extended their collaboration
for three more years. The global technology powerhouse and the sport club with
the most championship titles in German soccer are lengthening their “Performance
Partnership” until the end of the 2022/23 season. The focus will remain on
future-oriented solutions and innovative technologies as well as on infrastructure-related
digital products and solutions.
- Joint training against cyberattacks key in protecting digital grids
- Valuable insights on attacks and vulnerabilities enable innovative solutions and safer products
Siemens Smart Infrastructure and the NATO Cooperative Cyber Defence Centre of Excellence (CCDCOE) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to continue the cooperation on cybersecurity for critical infrastructure. The CCDCOE organized annual high-level cyber defence exercise Locked Shields exercise provides a key pillar to jointly build up defence capabilities. With the new agreement, the parties advance their existing cooperation on cyber security training for power grids. In experimenting with grid control software Spectrum Power, Siemens gains valuable insights on the potential attack vectors and can thoroughly test new security features or protocols for its products and solutions.
- Siemens Energy launches "Future of Storage" initiative to
promote sustainable energy systems
- Ecosystem of technology partners for energy storage solutions
created
- Long-term cooperation with Norwegian EnergyNest on thermal energy
storage
Siemens Energy has launched the "Future
of Storage" initiative. The aim of the initiative is to bundle knowledge
and build an ecosystem of technology partners in order to offer energy storage
solutions tailored to customers' needs. Decarbonizing the world's energy
systems is one of the key goals of Siemens Energy. An essential component of
climate-friendly energy systems of the future will be efficient energy storage
systems - they compensate for the fluctuating feed-in of renewable energies and
stabilize the grids, making them a key driver of decarbonization.
- System based on Siemens Spectrum Power supports second-by-second control of all assets and integration of RWE wind and solar farms
- Improved combination of electricity generation from renewables and conventional fuel is a major milestone for the energy transition
RWE is making its power station control system fit for the future by adopting a new technology. Optime, a new SCADA system based on Siemens Spectrum Power, gives RWE a uniform control technology. SCADA stands for 'Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition' – in other words monitoring and managing technical processes using a computer system. Previously, there were two separate systems: one for power plants in Germany and another for the Netherlands and Belgium. The new solution combines the two, while integrating RWE’s renewable energy assets in Europe. It can also accommodate additional units such as battery storage systems and diesel-powered backup generators.
