Yao Zhenguo, global Senior Vice President of Siemens Energy, said: “Today’s opening of our new headquarters in Greater China is another milestone in the development of Siemens Energy in China, which once again shows our strong confidence and determination to take root in China and work with partners to promote the energy transition. The new headquarters office center is not only a new demonstration and practice of promoting green and sustainable development in our own operations, but also a new cooperation demonstration of cross-border and cross-industry collaborative innovation in the energy field. Here, we will open the door to exchange and innovation, pool the wisdom and strength of all parties, and jointly contribute to the green and low-carbon energy transformation of China and the world.

We hope to build a first-class regional headquarters and business operation center of multinational enterprises in Shanghai, and deepen multi-faceted cooperation with the government, enterprises, scientific research institutions and universities to better meet the needs of the future energy market.”
