8日,西门子能源在柏林举行“超级工厂”开业典礼。借此,西门子能源将首次实现批量生产电解设备,为绿色氢能发展奠定基础。
据介绍,西门子能源“超级工厂”投资总额达3000万欧元,其中四分之三由西门子能源公司出资,其余由法国液化空气集团(Air Liquide)出资。工厂位于柏林的莫阿比特区,占地约2000平方米,将实现完全自动化生产电解模块。
新工厂最初年产能为一千兆瓦;到2025年,每年将向市场提供至少三千兆瓦的电解产能。该工厂将从柏林向世界各地氢气项目供货。
“这是能源转型和实现我们目标的重要基石。”德国联邦外贸与投资署氢能专家Raphael Goldstein表示,西门子能源通过这家工厂树立了榜样:德国是氢能技术的投资地,并希望在这一新兴产业中保持领先地位。在德国投资不仅有利于德国当地发展,也有助于为国外新兴氢能生产提供必要的“德国制造”技术,这对于通过出口建立氢能市场不可或缺。
德国联邦外贸与投资署是德国联邦政府对外贸易和对内引资的机构。

Siemens Energy held the opening ceremony of its Gigafactory in Berlin on August 8. In this way, Siemens Energy will achieve mass production of electrolytic equipment for the first time, laying the foundation for the development of green hydrogen energy.
According to reports, the total investment of Siemens Energy “Gigafactory” amounted to 30 million euros, three quarters of which was funded by Siemens Energy and the rest by Air Liquide of France. Located in Berlin’s Moabit district, the plant covers an area of approximately 2,000 square meters and will fully automate the production of electrolytic modules.
The new plant will initially have an annual capacity of 1,000 megawatts; By 2025, at least three thousand megawatts of electrolytic capacity will be supplied to the market each year. The plant will supply hydrogen to projects around the world from Berlin.
“This is an important building block for the energy transition and achieving our goals.” Raphael Goldstein, a hydrogen expert at Germany’s Federal Trade and Invest Agency, said Siemens Energy is setting an example with this plant: Germany is a place to invest in hydrogen technology and wants to remain a leader in this emerging industry. Investment in Germany not only benefits local development in Germany, but also helps to provide the necessary “Made in Germany” technology for emerging hydrogen production abroad, which is indispensable for establishing a hydrogen market through exports.
