The offshore wind farm in Saint-Nazaire off the Atlantic coast of France is a major project of the shipyard and energy company Chantiers de l’Atlantique. It encompasses the construction of 80 offshore wind power plants, complemented by a substation that collects and transforms the generated electricity before it is transported onshore.

Siemens Mobility extends its Railigent partner ecosystem

The project will enable EEM to optimize its renewable energy integration, significantly contributing to increasing the share of renewable power to around 50 percent in its energy mix. As a result, the island can reduce its fuel consumption over the next two to three years, while gaining greater energy independence without affecting energy quality or grid stability.

DB Regio Bayern and train manufacturer Siemens Mobility will put a total of 57 new trains in service in Bavaria beginning in December 2023. Twenty-six Desiro HC trains are currently being built for the Franconia-South Thuringia network, along with 25 Desiro HC double-decker trains and six Mireo trains for the Danube-Isar network. The 18 Desiro HC trains will operate in the Franconia-South Thuringia network as four-car units beginning in December 2023 and eight Desiro HC trains as six-car units in June 2024. They travel almost as fast as the ICE, for example between Coburg and Erfurt at 190 kmh. In the Danube-Isar network, the 31 new trains will inaugurate service in December 2024.

Passengers benefit from expanded rail services and greater punctuality

With the launch of service in December 2024, battery-electric trains will be used for the first time in the VBB network in Berlin and Brandenburg

‘The power reset: A town creating the energy blueprint for the world’, a new documentary film produced by Siemens, has just launched on Amazon Prime Video in the U.S., U.K. and Germany. The film narrates the story of Wunsiedel, a small town in the German region of Bavaria, and its inspiring energy transition journey.

The state of Baden-Württemberg has ordered three Mireo Plus B trains from Siemens Mobility. The battery-electric trains will ensure locally emission-free traffic on the new Hermann-Hesse-Bahn between Renningen and Calw from 2023
