How Siemens Uses AI to Power the Future of Energy

Energy production is responsible for more than 75% of global greenhouse gas emissions, as noted by the International Energy Agency (IEA).

Siemens, the major German multinational technology firm, is at the front of sustainable infrastructure, particularly in electrification, automation and digitisation.

The company’s technologies, such as adaptable smart grid infrastructure, play a crucial role in aiding utilities to achieve a sustainable, flexible and reliable energy supply.

A driving force behind innovative AI-driven solutions, Siemens is adding its expertise to the Future of Energy transition panel at Sustainability LIVE: Climate Week NYC.

Integrating AI in energy transition

Siemens is advancing the energy transition by merging the digital and real worlds.

Electrification X, a sophisticated software solution, stands as a testament to this integration, facilitating automation and electrification to tackle pressing energy transition challenges.

This platform, driven by AI, aids renewable energy operators, like data centres and transmission system operators, to manage energy networks efficiently, thus enhancing uptime, reliability and energy efficiency.

Beyond software, Siemens’ financial services have been instrumental in fostering growth within emerging markets and clean technology sectors.

The company has contributed to the financing of over 18 gigawatts of wind and solar power plants worldwide.

Carl Ennis, CEO of Siemens UK & Ireland, says: “We must support business and industry to decarbonise if we are to successfully deliver the energy transition we need.

“A clear industrial strategy is a key piece of the puzzle and would give businesses the confidence to invest meaningfully in cutting carbon, while boosting economic growth and productivity.

“Over the next few years, adopting clean energy technology and digitalisation software that can help accelerate the transition to net zero will become instrumental and we need to give companies the right platform to do so.”
