Tailored systems and solutions for utilities, industry and infrastructure Maintaining the balance between economy and ecology with continuing globalization these are challenges that the majority of industries faces today. Flexibility is becoming more important, development cycles are becoming shorter, and time-to-market is becoming crucial. Your business success is based on a reliable and flexible energy supply. This results in high demands on suppliers of electrical systems and solutions. Whether in the supply of cities and infrastructure, or for industrial plants with Siemens systems and solutions you will always have the right solution for a reliable and cost-efficient energy supply whether you are operating regionally or globally. Regional customers Our maintenance-free and compact gas-insulated switchgear support utilities in building more costefficient and reliable grids, as well as in integrating into smart grids. For wind farms and turbines, our busbar trunking systems and mediumvoltage switchgear are used, ensuring a reliable connection to the power grid. Energy storage solutions enable the integration of an increasing number of wind turbines into distribution grids, without requiring that such grids be expanded immediately. Modern infrastructure, such as hospitals, office buildings and airports, must meet stringent requirements in terms of safety, low environmental impact, and integration of renewable energy. Our low- and medium-voltage switchgear and busbar trunking systems ensure a high level of safety, flexibility and functionality. Globally operating customers and EPCs In the oil and gas industry or in mining, for example, our prefabricated solution in a container features efficiency, safety and reliability for supplying power under extremely difficult environmental conditions. It gives you an efficient and economical alternative to conventionally installed medium-voltage substations. Chemical production must be supplied with power around-theclock on a cost-efficient yet extremely flexible basis. With our switchgear, we offer you an efficient and reliable energy supply. In the automotive industry and in data centers, busbar trunking systems offer a stable electrical infrastructure while providing flexibility for the connection of loads in case of subsequent modifications or expansions. In the metal industry or in the pulp and paper industry i.e., wherever large amounts of energy are required on demand and peak loads need to be reduced our energy storage system offers the right solution. 4

See for yourself in a small selection of our references. Energy storage in power distribution ENEL S.p.A. Molise Italy Energy storage system for studying new smart grid solutions for ENEL in Italy Requirements As one of Europe s largest utilities, Enel invests heavily in the integration of renewable energies into the power grids. Due to the highly distributed nature of the multiple renewable energy sources it is necessary to take account of the fluctuating feeds, and offset the effects to ensure a stable and high-quality supply for their customers. Solution In February 2012, a SIESTORAGE energy storage system was put into operation with a power of 1 MVA and a capacity of 500 kwh. SIESTORAGE helps ENEL to offset load and voltage fluctuations within milli seconds. The system acts either as an additional source of energy, or absorbs peaks in generation. It is not necessary for large power plants to intervene. Value added Improved system availability and safety of all machines and devices connected to the grid System availability is maintained at 95% capacity during the maintenance of individual battery modules Faster restarting of the system with black start capability Busbar trunking systems and low-voltage switchboards in infrastructure Süddeutscher Verlag Munich Germany Low-voltage power distribution for an office building of the Süddeutscher Verlag in Munich Requirements Planning of the new group headquarters included the development of a power concept that went far beyond the requirements of the energy-saving regulations applicable at the time. The concept also fulfilled the client s rigorous requirements in terms of sound insulation. In addition, the building and building services were to be flexibly adaptable to fast-paced changes in the publishing and editorial industry. Solution Integrating the aspects of cost-efficiency, sustainability and fire load, the planners chose to use a modular and space-saving SIVACON S8 low-voltage power distribution board as well as SIVACON 8PS busbar trunking systems for power transportation and distribution up to the storeys. The busbar trunking system also forms the basis for the integrated overall concept from Siemens. Value added Harmony between cost-efficiency, sustainability, building efficiency, and flexibility of use A productive work environment with a room climate that can be adjusted by the occupants 10
Energy supply system for the industry (food & beverage) Pepsi Moscow Russia Low- and medium-voltage power distribution for Pepsi s iced tea filling facility in Moscow Requirements Pepsi s iced tea filling facility on the south side of Moscow is one of the most modern plants in Russia, extending over a length of 300 meters. An important requirement for its smooth operation is a safe and reliable power distribution. Already in the planning phase, Pepsi decided for a uniform solution that should provide a high degree of consistency, reliability and flexibility. Solution The overall low- and medium-voltage solution is based on the Totally Integrated Power concept from Siemens. Using the planning software SIMARIS design, all components necessary for power distribution were dimensioned precisely, conveniently and quickly from the GEAFOL transformers and NXPLUS C medium-voltage switchgear to the SIVACON S8 low-voltage power distribution board and up to the SIVACON 8PS busbar trunking systems. Value added Safe and standard-compliant planning with the software SIMARIS design Optimally aligned products and systems High flexibility with regard to changing requirements Energy supply system in the E-House for industry (oil & gas) QP Shell Qatar E-House for Pearl GTL in Qatar: Three modules on cast in situ foundation Requirements For a refinery located in Qatar, QP Shell required three containerized modules for a flexible and reliable power supply in accordance with Shell s high requirements for HSSE (Health, Safety, Security and Environment). Solution Siemens delivered three container modules for one E-House on cast in situ foundation. Siemens s scope of supply also comprised the design, engineering, purchasing, fabrication, erection, testing and commissioning. Value added Precomissioned at factory with delivery ready to install Reduced installation risk through prefabricated modules Installation and testing in short-time period 11
