- Siemens Energy Corporate Center in Berlin
- Joint location and structural concept planned with the State of Berlin
- Company's administrative
headquarters remain in Bavaria
Siemens Energy, as a stand-alone company,
will locate its Corporate Center in Berlin. The energy technology company with
worldwide 91,000 employees, which in 2019 generated revenue of €28.8 billion,
is thus returning to its roots: Werner von Siemens and Johann Georg Halske
founded their company in Berlin in 1847 and with the discovery of the
electrodynamic principle in 1866 laid a foundation for today's Siemens Group
and therefore today's Siemens Energy.
- Built-in sensors, control functions, input/output and flexible power supply in one device
- Open KNX communication for integration from simple to advanced building management systems
- New slim and smooth design with touch buttons and rotary knob
- Fast installation and commissioning with the new ‘PCT Go’ app
Siemens Smart Infrastructure (SI) is
launching its new RDG200 thermostat range for a healthy and productive indoor
climate. Room automation is key for protecting and enhancing the occupants'
health as well as increasing productivity at the same time for a safe return to
work. The new range follows this approach and includes two digital thermostat
variants for temperature and humidity control as well as advanced KNX
communication between sensors and actuators to Siemens’ building management
systems such as Desigo and Synco. This ensures good air quality with peace in
mind to have indoor climate under control. Designed for most commercial
buildings, including hotels, offices and educational buildings, the new RDG200
thermostats support all conceivable energy-saving strategies in rooms for more
cost-efficiency, including occupancy-based
savings via presence detection, key-card reader or system time program as well
as different setpoint limitations. With their modern design and the one-touch
Green Leaf button, the new thermostats display the energy efficiency status and
puts the user in charge of energy savings.
- Early delivery of three locomotives to Danish State Railways DSB
- Vectron approved in 20 countries
On September 15, 2020, the AC version of the Vectron locomotive received official approval from the Danish safety authority “Trafik-, Bygge og Boligstyrelsen” for operating in Denmark. The approval marks an important milestone for the commissioning of 42 Vectron locomotives ordered by Danish State Railways (DSB) from Siemens Mobility over the last two years. The first three locomotives will be delivered in September 2020.
- Atos to deliver digital, integrated and cybersecurity solutions to support Siemens digital strategic objectives
- Siemens-Atos Global Alliance will pursue joint go-to-market growth opportunities
Siemens AG and Atos, a global leader in digital transformation, today announced the extension of their Customer Relationship Agreement within their strategic partnership, started in 2011. The agreement aims to accelerate Siemens’ digital objectives in the areas of services modernization and digitalization, data driven digital, cloud transformation and cybersecurity. It comes in the context of 5-year total €3 billion agreements which were separately signed with Siemens AG, Siemens Energy AG and Siemens Healthineers AG and include existing services as well as new business. As part of the agreement, Atos will also invest in innovation and digital modernization, in order to advance important innovation topics for Siemens.
- New standard library for shorter winding times at a higher quality
- Can be used for linear winding procedures of rectangular coils
- Engineering and commissioning times of winding machines are reduced
For the faster production of e-motors, Siemens has developed a new application which optimally controls wire tension for linear winding and minimizes fluctuations in force. The Wire Brake software application for automated winding of rectangular coil former controls the tension of the copper wire. In comparison to passive systems, this enables higher winding speeds and a higher winding quality to be achieved. The functionality can be integrated directly into the machine project using the standard library "Simotion Wire Brake" which shortens engineering and commissioning costs. It contains algorithms which include the rectangular geometry of the coil former as well as the "TensionControl" components to control the wire tension brake axis and "CamGeneration" to calculate cams using reference values.
- Dynamic load flow control solution for grid stabilization and resilience
- UPFC PLUS controls load flow in milliseconds
- Facilitating the increasing integration of renewable energy
With its new Unified Power Flow Controller, called UPFC PLUS, Siemens Energy is expanding the options for grid stabilization. The UPFC PLUS will help system operators stabilize the grid by dynamically controlling the load flow in alternating-current grids. Easy to integrate into existing infrastructure, the UPFC PLUS improves the efficiency of today’s power grid while providing the grid stability and resilience required in the ever-changing energy landscape.
- Evonik and Siemens Energy put pilot plant into operations
- Artificial photosynthesis closes carbon dioxide cycle
- The Federal Ministry of Education and Research is funding the various project stages with more than €6 millionund Siemens Energy nehmen Versuchsanlage in Betrieb
Evonik
and Siemens Energy today commissioned a pilot plant sponsored by the German
Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) that uses carbon dioxide and
water to produce chemicals. The necessary energy is supplied by electricity
from renewable sources. The pilot plant is located in Marl, in the northern
Ruhr area, and its innovative technology of artificial photosynthesis should
contribute to the success of the energy revolution. It is an essential part of
the Rheticus I and II research projects, which are sponsored by the Federal
Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) with a total of 6.3 million euros.
- 150MW simple cycle power plant
for Saidpur, Rangpur as part of the country’s utility expansion in power
generation
- Siemens Energy is supplying
components that will aid the plant’s optimal fuel usage in full and part load
operation for long-term sustainability towards the direction of clean energy
A new energy future
beckons for the developing northern region of Bangladesh thanks to a new 150MW
simple cycle power plant to be built in Saidpur, Rangpur. Global energy
technology company Siemens Energy is helping with this sustainable transition
after winning the project during the retendering phase, which will see it
supply components that will contribute to the optimal fuel usage in full and
part load operation.
- Enlighted Safe app helps track and trace employees who may have come in contact with an infected individual
- Allows organizations to potentially reduce the risk of virus transmission
- Provides insight into physical distancing events within the workplace
- Transparency into high-risk areas for better space management and planning
Siemens Smart Infrastructure has launched Enlighted Safe, a new workplace digital contact tracing app, which helps employees return safely to the workplace. Enlighted Safe provides greater transparency into the contact history of employees who are known to have tested positive for COVID-19. This is designed to support organizations in reducing the exposure of infection, keep healthy employees safe and productive, and eliminate the inefficient, expensive and error-prone manual contact tracing process for employers.
- Catastrophic
situation after fire ravaged refugee camp in Moria on Lesbos – only makeshift
shelter for people on ships and in provisional tents
- CEOs Diess and Kaeser underscore humanitarian responsibility
of companies
- Funds go to the German Red Cross and its local partners, who
will coordinate the relief efforts
Siemens AG
and the Volkswagen Group are jointly donating €5 million for immediate
humanitarian aid to displaced people in Moria and Greece. The situation for
people has worsened dramatically since fire ravaged the refugee camp in Moria
on Lesbos. They have been given makeshift shelter on ships belonging to the
Greek Navy and in provisional tents. The funds will be given to the German Red
Cross (DRK) to support the comprehensive aid initiatives of the International
Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement for displaced people in Greece.
