Siemens Energy Ventures is the entrepreneurial heart of Siemens Energy. Founded in 2020, our focus is on investing, building and piloting ventures that will transform energy systems and will help fight climate change.
Providing sustainable, reliable and affordable energy for all is how we energize society. Energy is our global lifeblood; powering homes, operating transport systems, run our healthcare systems and enabling industries to function. It sets our quality of life. But right now, to deliver the energy demands of tomorrow and reach our net zero goals on time, our energy systems need to change and become more sustainable today.
We want to partner with start-ups and founders to accompany you on your growth journey, providing necessary support, guidance and network.
Siemens Energy Ventures offers a unique blend of expertise; our own innovation history can be traced back to 1886, along with market access, networks and deep technology know-how. What we’re looking for is founding teams solving big climate and energy challenges with innovative ideas so we can energize society together.
We put founding teams at the center of what we do. We believe a good way to co-create is by first giving our own expertise and resources to help solve the climate problem we are all liable for.
There are four key areas where together we can tackle the technical and commercial challenges across the entire energy value chain.
We build ventures. We identify new markets and build teams that have the potential to create and scale our next high growth business.

CertaLink Energy Certification can help verify and certify renewable sources of your product along the supply chain. With the help of blockchain and by connecting physical assets to the digital decentral infrastructure, a certificate identifies the product’s energy origin, carrying this from source to consumption, giving detailed insight into its low carbon intensity and other energy attributes.
Our Firefly venture is addressing the need to reduce emissions and save fuels costs in the refrigerated truck transportation industry.
With the increasing share of renewables and shutdown of fossil and nuclear power plants countries are faced with the challenge to keep the power grids stable. Rotating Grid Stabilizers like synchronous condensers (SynCon), combined with Flywheels or Asynchronous rotating energy system stabilizer (ARESS) are some of Siemens Energy’s answers to meet the demand for inertia, short circuit power and frequency regulation of the grid. This allows our customers to manage the energy transition.
