Forjando un futuro cero emisiones a través de la innovación colaborativa, desde combustibles fósiles hasta recursos renovables
La evidencia es irrefutable. No estamos en camino de cumplir con los objetivos del Panel Intergubernamental sobre el Cambio Climático (IPCC). Las alarmantes consecuencias incluyen la reducción de los glaciares, la desaparición de las costas y las catástrofes naturales, por nombrar algunas. También nos estamos equivocando en otro frente: aproximadamente 850 millones de personas, más del 10 por ciento de la población mundial, carecen de acceso a la energía.
Sin embargo, todavía hay esperanza.
Podemos superar esto, si actuamos con rapidez y coordinados, a través de la innovación. Ahí es donde entramos nosotros. Nuestras capacidades abarcan la nueva cadena de valor de la energía, desde tecnologías de reducción de carbono para aplicaciones de petróleo, gas y energía, hasta soluciones de energía eólica e hidrógeno.
Con un gasto anual en I+D de aproximadamente 1,000 millones de euros, lideramos con el ejemplo y colaboramos estrechamente con socios estratégicos en todo el ecosistema energético para hacer que el mañana sea diferente hoy, a través de:
Aplicado a la movilidad, una fuente de energía renovable (generalmente eólica o solar) impulsa la electrólisis del agua para producir hidrógeno verde, que luego se convierte en un combustible electrónico (por ejemplo, e-gasolina, e-metanol o e-queroseno), lo que permite transporte de red neutral. Con el acoplamiento de sectores, la geografía ya no supone un obstáculo para las renovables. La energía eólica y solar se puede aprovechar prácticamente en cualquier lugar, incluidas las ubicaciones favorables desde el punto de vista atmosférico, aunque remotas, como combustible o materia prima libre de emisiones.
El acoplamiento de sectores tiene una gama de aplicaciones fuera de la movilidad, incluida la agricultura, los procesos petroquímicos, la calefacción, la refrigeración y la producción de acero.

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.
