How can we secure sustainability in tomorrow's energy age?

oland Fischer, CEO Products, gy Sector, Fossil Power Gnration The future of power gnration will see a diverse mix of energy resources. Renewable sources are gaining in impor驭tance, but fossil fuels will continue to be the mainstay. Therefore, the demand for cleaner fossil power will become more challenging. We have the technology to answer this challenge already today.

How can we ensure that we'll have enough energy for everyone -even in the year 2030? With fossil power gnration as the mainstay for tomorrow's well-balanced energy mix The future will see a broad mix of energy resources. Renewable sources are gaining in importance, of course. But fossil fuels will continue to be the mainstay, ensuring grid stability as well as reliable energy supply - anytime, anywhere. Stable basis: fossil fuels Hand-in-hand with renewable sources Fossil fuels are at the top of the global There is no doubt that renewable energy energy mix, making up 67 percent. And sources...

Greater efficiency and less environmental impact A key factor for cleaner fossil power gnra驭tion is the reduction of greenhouse gases and harmful emissions. We will achieve this goal first of all by continuing to up-grade our power plants technologically, with innovative features such as flue gas cleaning. In addition, we are developing fossil power plants to new standards of efficiency and performance. Parallel to these developments, we are actively driving future technologies forward, for instance with the development of high efficiency steam turbine packages for large concen-trated solar...

How can we sensibly balance business conomies and ecology? By being one step ahead with products for cleaner fossil power generation, ... Siemens offers the broadest spectrum of future-ready technologies, providing an outstanding basis for sustainable success. Our strength lies in our perfectly coordinated solutions that lead to fewer emissions and less consumption of natural resources. You can rely on quality products that have already received numerous environmental awards! ... meaning greater efficiency ... meaning fewer emissions Growing demands to further reduce CO2 As early as 2002,...

... meaning flexibility Utilities must be flexible - and able to respond to fluctuating power demands with short notice. The days in which com-bined-cycle power plants primarily served as base load power plants are coming to an end. Up to 90 percent of these types of power plants are scheduled to be replaced or modernized in the next five to ten years - with flexible fast-cycling power plants. The advantage: short start-up times and thus a high degree of flexibility. Where regular combined-cycle power plants require nearly two hours for a "plant hot start up", Siemens solutions based on...

45 We walk the talk - by minimizing our own carbon footprint We not only offer innovative solutions to our customers. We also utilize them ourselves - so that we can deliver products that really stand for sustainability. Our processes are shaped by numerous environmentally relevant criteria, from development to assembly, and all the way to commissioning. That's because, for us, maximum protection of natural resources and the environment starts long before installing or even producing our products worldwide. Thinking clean - Budapest, Hungary at locations around the world 20 percent less gas...

Cilegon, Indonesia 50 percent less gas At this plant, built in 1989, we produce condensers for turbines and turbine parts. Our Cilegon production site consumes only half as much gas since we installed highly efficient heat treatment furnaces. In the course of renovations, the roofs were equipped with skylights to reduce electricity demand by 20 percent. Double-glazed windows save an additional five percent in energy. In addition, the newly installed assembly unit for low-pressure turbine sections in Cilegon has halved land and sea transport and thus reduced corre-sponding emissions....

Unprecedented power plant performance all over the world We demonstrate this not only with rfrences from around the world, but also with outstanding products that are leading the way in this area. Steam turbines for cleaner power from coal and gas turbines lead to unparalleled efficiency levels -products like these form the basis for tomorrow's energy age. Here are but two of our many references from around the world that emphasize this. Waigaoqiao: world-class in clean coal Clean coal - impossible? No. Coal-based power g驩nration is one of the fields where Siemens technology can...

Efficient, eco-friendly, extraordinary: SGT-8000H Sries With an efficiency level of more than 60 percent in the combined-cycle power plant, the SGT-8000H Series is the world's most efficient gas turbine. We are entering a new dimension of sustainable power generation with our "H-Class". The SGT-8000H Series gas turbines and the SCC-8000H Series combined-cycle power plants feature best-in-class technology based on further evolution of our proven product lines. Tested in actual operation at the Irsching 4 power plant, the SGT5-8000H, our solution for the 50-Hz class, has already proven that...
