About The Team

• "Let’s make tomorrow different today" is our genuine commitment at Siemens Energy to all customers and employees on the way to a sustainable, CO2 neutral future.
• The Siemens Energy Innovation Center Abu Dhabi is researching and developing new technologies to help us build a competitive portfolio and the right technology. We focus on innovating through co-creation with partners, customers, start-ups, and academia in all five Fields of Action with a main focus on Power-to-X and Decarbonized Heat and Industrial Processes.
• Decarbonized Heat & Industrial Processes specifically focuses on both Heat and Industrial Emissions. We aim to help our industrial customers produce heat as efficiently and environmentally friendly as possible, reducing their emissions at the same time. Industrial heat pumps and smart, integrated digital tools are examples of the products we develop.
• Power-to-X is a vital lever to decarbonize all sectors through bringing renewable energy from the power sector to other sectors and by this decarbonize mobility, heat, industry, and power generation. Power-to-X is building on our strengths in the power business and explores new fields in the chemical and gases business, where building an eco-system of partners is key.
• The Innovation Center Abu Dhabi is a new department embedded in the Global Function Innovation. We aim to develop new technologies together with our partners to successfully shape the energy transition. If you find this interesting and are passionate about this subject too, then join us and help make the difference.
