Power grids aren't ready yet for tomorrow's energy landscape. Aging infrastructure, increasing energy demand, and the need to optimize grid utilization, along with the integration of renewables, require modernization and expansion of power grids worldwide.

With a broad portfolio of innovative transmission products, systems, solutions, and services, Siemens Energy supports customers on their energy transition journeys and makes sure to bring power from where it is generated to where it is needed.

To reach climate neutrality by 2050, more renewable energy sources need to be integrated into the power grid. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), 3.000 GW of renewable power projects are waiting to be connected. In total, the grid is estimated to double in size by 2040 (IEA), resulting in an increasing demand in corresponding grid technologies.

We enable the transmission of renewable power, reducing dependance on fossil fuels and promoting a clean energy mix. Our innovative solutions, including offshore grid connections and high-voltage direct current systems, facilitate the seamless integration of renewable energy sources, such as offshore wind farms and solar power plants, into the electrical grid.

High-voltage direct current (HVDC)

HVDC is ideal for bridging the distances between large-scale renewable power generating installations such as offshore wind farms and the load centers they serve. In a multi-terminal configuration, the collecting of renewable power can be combined with pan-continental integration of power transmission systems, such as for interconnecting multiple regional or national AC grids.

Offshore grid connections

Integrating renewable energy sources is key to meeting society’s energy needs while fighting climate change. Yet, these contributions to more carbon-neutral energy take place in remote areas often hundreds or even thousands of kilometers away from the centers of consumption. We provide reliable and efficient transmission systems to connect remote renewable energy sources to the grid.
