Forjando um futuro de zero emissões líquidas por meio da inovação colaborativa, de combustíveis fósseis a recursos renováveis
As evidências são irrefutáveis. Não estamos no caminho certo para cumprir as metas do Painel Intergovernamental sobre Mudanças Climáticas (IPCC - Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change). As consequências alarmantes incluem o encolhimento das geleiras, o desaparecimento de faixas costeiras, catástrofes naturais, entre outras. Também estamos errando o alvo em outra frente: aproximadamente 850 milhões de pessoas, mais de 10% da população global, não têm acesso a energia.
Mas ainda há esperança.
Podemos vencer este desafio se agirmos rapidamente e em conjunto por meio da inovação. É aí que nós entramos. Nossas capacidades englobam toda a nova cadeia de valor de energia, desde tecnologias para reduzir as emissões de carbono nos setores de petróleo e gás e aplicações de energia, até soluções eólicas e de hidrogênio.
Com um investimento anual de aproximadamente 1 bilhão de euros em P&D, estamos liderando pelo exemplo e colaborando estreitamente com parceiros estratégicos em todo o ecossistema de energia para fazer o amanhã diferente, hoje, por meio de
Aplicada à mobilidade, uma fonte de energia renovável (tipicamente eólica ou solar) alimenta a eletrólise da água para produzir hidrogênio verde, que então é convertido em um e-combustível (por exemplo, e-gasolina, e-metanol, e-querosene), permitindo um transporte com zero emissões. Com o acoplamento setorial, a geografia deixa de ser um obstáculo para as energias renováveis. A energia eólica e solar pode ser produzida virtualmente em qualquer lugar – incluindo localizações atmosféricas vantajosas, porém remotas – como combustível ou matéria-prima com zero emissões.
O acoplamento setorial tem uma gama de aplicações que vai além da mobilidade, incluindo agricultura, processos petroquímicos, aquecimento e resfriamento, e produção de aço. Para uma visão geral das aplicações e exemplos de projetos da Siemens Energy, veja o gráfico interativo abaixo.
E-fuels: Net-neutral transportation
Renewable energy (e.g., wind or solar) can be harnessed to produce green hydrogen through the electrolysis of water. In turn, green hydrogen can be converted into e-fuels to enable net-neutral transportation, including marine, aviation and trucking.
Chemical processes: Replacing ‘grey’ with green H₂
Grey H₂—produced from natural gas—is used as an input throughout the petrochemical industry. Replacing it with green H₂ reduces emissions.
Gas Turbines: Using green H₂ as fuel (including blended)
Modern turbines can operate on a variety of fuels. Even blending small amounts of green H₂ with natural gas can reduce emissions associated with power generation significantly.
E-fertilizer: Net-neutral agricultural production
As the global population continues to grow rapidly, so does its demand for food, and fertilizers. Produced primarily from fossil fuels, today’s fertilizers emit high amounts of CO₂. Through the synthesis of e-fertilizer and e-ammonia from green hydrogen and nitrogen, we can decarbonize agricultural production.
Heating and cooling
District heating / cooling: Replacing fossil fuels with green H₂
Waste Heat: Decarbonizing heating with heat pumps
Sector coupling can be used to decarbonize heating and cooling in two ways: substituting green H₂ for fossil fuels, and harnessing heat pumps
Industrial processes: Replacing fossil fuels with green H₂
Green H₂ can replace fossil fuels in various industrial processes to reduce emissions. One example is the substitution of green H₂ for coke or coal to generate high-temperature process heat in steel production.

Advanced ship propulsion systems for lowest CO₂ emissions
The propulsion system holds the biggest influence not only on performance, security, and cost-effectiveness - but also on greenhouse gas emissions of a ship. Advanced ship propulsion systems greatly reduce fuel consumption, and therefore CO₂ emissions and operating cost.
BlueVault™ Energy Storage Solutions
BlueVault™ is an advanced lithium-ion battery-based solution, suited for both all-electric and hybrid energy-storage applications. The battery is designed to maximize life, performance and safety. BlueVault™ can be installed in newbuild as well as retrofit diesel-electric power plants and in all type vessels, drilling or FPSO.
A city with almost 100% CO₂-neutral power supply
In Wunsiedel, Siemens Energy builds on of Germany’s biggest hydrogen plants with an annual production capacity of 1,350 t of green hydrogen – the equivalent of 13,500 t CO₂ not being emitted into the atmosphere.
A starting point into CO₂-neutral shipping in large scale
Siemens Energy will implement an electrolyzer plant nearbly the solar park of Kassø, Denmark. The hydrogen will be used for cost-effective e-fuel production securing the e-methanol supply for Maersk’s first e-methanol driven container vessel.
Trailblazer project in Oberhausen
An electrolyzer plant will be integrated in the existing local hydrogen and oxygen pipeline structure of Air Liquide in Germany.
Climate-friendly heating supply for Berlin
Vattenfall and Siemens Energy are building a novel high-temperature industrial heat pump that will supply Berlins district heating system with net-zero heat. This is a pioneering project on the way to decarbonizing heat.
Clima-neutral power supply for Leipzig, Germany
A cutting-edge gas-fired power plant will make Leipzig independent from lignite-fired district heating generation. The long-term goal is to operate the facility with 100% hydrogen.
Increased efficiency and reliability of power supply for Dubai
A powerful multi-site application provides DEWA (Dubai Electricity and Water Authority) with a highly reliable and available energy management system.
Enhancing grid reliability and network stability
Grid resilience means resuming normal power grid operations, anytime and anywhere. Learn how to balance grid fluctuations from renewable energy sources.
