Mastering the challenges of changing energy systems

Energy systems are changing – fundamentally and fast. The importance of individual energy sources and options for power generation are changing, as are the ways in which electricity is transmitted and distributed. Power generation is becoming more and more decentralized making grid management increasingly complex. Electrical consumption continues to steadily rise all over the world. Meeting these challenges requires cutting-edge products and services covering the entire energy value chain. Specifically, it calls for a comprehensive portfolio of physical and digital technologies, products and solutions that allow us to actively build our energy future. The Siemens portfolio ranges from state-of-the-art compressors, turbines and generators to virtual power plants, intelligent grid management and innovative storage solutions – all backed up by exceptional service offerings and genuine commitment to effectively address our customers’ individual needs.

Heading toward a Sustainable Energy future

The availability of electrical power is a major enabler of social and economic development. Some parts of the world are developing so fast that conventional power plant construction would take too long to satisfy the immediate needs. In other cases, the power infrastructure is damaged by natural or man-made disasters, needing fast back-up solutions. With our Fast Power portfolio we are offering solutions that can provide gas turbine generation capacities in just six months or less.

Discover solutions from Siemens that help establish highly resilient power systems that immediately recover from disruptive events and adapt to impending threats and dangers.

The world’s population is growing – demand for energy is growing faster. This presents four core challenges for a sustainable energy system: security of supply, affordability, climate protection, and resource efficiency. It will take ingenuity to succeed.

Holland Energy Park

A new combined heat and power plant in Holland, Michigan, USA does more than keep the lights on – it feeds an underground snowmelt system that, in turn, ensures a bustling city center in winter.

By utilizing a Siemens industrial gas turbine package the Mexican textile manufacturer Grupo Kaltex not only increased the reliability of its power supply immensely. It also improved its overall quality and reduced energy costs – a giant step forward in maximizing efficiency and an investment in energy independence that will pay off in just four years.

Wherever heat is required, Combined Heat and Power (CHP) plants are a utile alternative to conventional power plants. Using thermal energy to reduce fuel consumption, CHP can achieve the same output at lower costs and minimized emissions.

Thanks to the new full bridge technology for HVDC PLUS from Siemens, the HVDC converter for ULTRANET from Amprion and TransnetBW enables fault-free and low-loss transport of electricity from northern to southern Germany.

The globally acting consulting company Frost & Sullivan has awarded Siemens the European Award for New Product Innovation 2015. It honors the company as a technology leader on the market for industrial steam turbines, ...
