What it does: The company works with its customers and partners on energy systems for the future, thus supporting the transition to a more sustainable world.
Mission: At Siemens Energy, our mission is to empower our customers to meet the growing global demand for energy while transitioning to a more sustainable world.
Size and presence: Siemens Energy employs 91,000 people worldwide in more than 90 countries.
Best known for: With its portfolio of products, solutions and services, Siemens Energy covers almost the entire energy value chain – from power generation and transmission to storage. The portfolio includes conventional and renewable energy technology, such as gas and steam turbines, hybrid power plants operated with hydrogen, and power generators and transformers. More than 50 per cent of the portfolio has already been decarbonized.
Our tradition dates back 150 years. In 1866, Werner von Siemens converted mechanical energy into electrical energy making it applicable to everyday life. He exerted the kind of courage, drive, and determination we need today.
As an independent company, Siemens Energy opens a new chapter in the Siemens history of energy technology. We will keep the best of our legacy while pushing the boundaries of what is possible. That is how we shape the energy of tomorrow.
Our technology is key, but our people make the difference. Brilliant minds innovate. They connect, create, and keep us on track towards changing the world’s energy systems. Their spirit fuels our mission. Our culture is defined by caring, agile, respectful, and accountable individuals. At Siemens Energy, you can help lead the energy transformation. Learn how you can make tomorrow different, today.
Society, environment, and education are the three key areas that Siemens Energy focuses on for its CSR and charitable activities. Across its projects there is a strong society and environment element, for instance, where a substation is built on a green site, great care is taken to enhance or return the surrounding landscape to its pre-construction state. And during the redesign of National Grid’s substation at Whitegate, wooden packaging – ordinarily destined for landfill - was redirected to an initiative that helped vulnerable people train to make furniture from recycled packaging. Education programmes, particularly around science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM) are an important element for our Siemens Energy businesses in north-east England and have provided an opportunity for collaboration over the creation of engineering-based activities for ‘Bring it On! – The North East Exhibition for Future Engineers. Similarly, great links with schools around substations in Scotland have provided engagement opportunities with potential future engineers.
