Siemens offers both greenfield and brownfield construction.

Greenfield: Typically uses a slim gantry solution with a minimal footprint for the overhead dispenser and cable management mounting.

Brownfield: Integrates charge points seamlessly in your existing overhead construction (ceiling or roof).

A hanging system is cost-efficient and as easy as it can be. The cable is always available and ready to use. It’s the perfect fit for a depot with no variability in vehicle length and no space constraints.

The cable reel solution safely stores the charging cable on a reel when it is not needed. Depending on the vehicle length, the reel provides as much of the cable as necessary. The system is highly flexible and the cable retraction provides added safety.

The wire rope cable management system retracts the charging cable very efficiently using a rope in parallel to the charging cable, which provides added safety. Reducing the mechanical complexity to a single cable pull increases the reliability. This system is therefore low-complexity, but highly flexible and robust.

In a cable on rail system, the charging cable is guided by a rail mounted to the gantry or ceiling. This type of system lets you seamlessly move the hanging cable along the vehicle to cover different vehicle lengths. This system is flexible, low-complexity and easy to handle.

A contact hood allows you to charge vehicles autonomously in the depot. The system offers powerful automated charging suitable for the buses with an integrated (on-board) pantograph. It’s easy to install and easy to use.
