A toda velocidad para el plan de acción climático de Stuttgart

El objetivo de Stuttgart es ser neutral desde el punto de vista climático para 2035, diez años antes de lo que exige la Ley Federal de Cambio Climático de Alemania. Para lograr este objetivo, la empresa municipal de servicios públicos Stadtwerke Stuttgart está implementando un concepto de sostenibilidad junto con Siemens, y empezará por su propia sede central.

El «estilo de Stuttgart»: neutralidad climática para 2035

¿Por qué hemos emprendido esta difícil ruta cuando hay un camino más fácil disponible? La neutralidad desde el punto de vista climático para 2045 es el requisito legal. Pero Stadtwerke Stuttgart ha decidido seguir el «estilo de Stuttgart» con el objetivo de lograr la neutralidad climática para 2035.

Los servicios públicos municipales y su desafío en el camino hacia la neutralidad climática

Los servicios públicos municipales son el motor de la transición energética. Como proveedor de servicios generales para sectores clave como la energía, el transporte y los edificios, pueden actuar como modelo a seguir al impulsar la transición energética. Para alcanzar el objetivo climático de la ciudad de Stuttgart, se deben ahorrar 3,6 megatoneladas de equivalentes de CO₂ al año, un enorme desafío para el grupo Stadtwerke Stuttgart.

Asociación tecnológica con Stadtwerke Stuttgart

El grupo Stadtwerke Stuttgart está definiendo medidas concretas para lograr estos ambiciosos objetivos y está implementando un concepto de sostenibilidad integral junto con Siemens en el marco de una asociación tecnológica. Los productos, las soluciones y los servicios se utilizan en una amplia gama de proyectos de eficiencia, energía y áreas residenciales. La plataforma empresarial Siemens Xcelerator, abierta e interoperable, constituye la base de las aplicaciones entre edificios. ¿Qué aspecto tiene eso en términos concretos? Siemens proporciona los sensores y el software. Trabajamos con los expertos en energía de Stadtwerke Stuttgart para desarrollar conceptos de energía y calefacción que puedan integrarse en los sistemas de los clientes en función de los datos y las funcionalidades resultantes.

Building X

Building X is a suite of AI-driven and open-platform applications for building management. It eliminates complexity, reduces data silos, and improves building performance.

Building X offers the following advantages for the building in Kesselstrasse:

360° Viewer: Photorealistic image as a digital twin. The 360° Viewer provides a continuous overview by displaying a virtual 3D environment.

Energy Manager: The energy consumption, costs and CO2 emissions of the building are recorded and analyzed so that optimization measures can be defined at an early stage.

Operations Manager: For monitoring a wide range of building installations and applications – in real time and from a single location. This makes it possible to respond to faults faster, thus minimizing downtimes and improving business continuity.

Lifecycle Twin: Serves a central data hub. It provides end-to-end visibility and comprehensive management for technical building services and all of the building’s assets, as well as efficient work order management in a virtual environment.

The combination of Siemens expertise in building management and ours in the energy industry creates solutions that not only help us to achieve our own sustainability goals but also help us to support other organizations in their energy transition.”

New headquarters to become a sustainability showcase

The conversion and modernization of an existing building at Kesselstrasse 23 in Stuttgart can be seen as the reference and starting point of the technology partnership.

The first concrete measure is the modernization of the future head office of the Stadtwerke Stuttgart Group. Their new home is to become a showcase for sustainability and modern work practices. To this end, the office complex, including the warehouse and workshops at Kesselstrasse 23, is being converted and expanded according to a holistic sustainability concept. This entails, among other things, the use of renewable energy and efficient energy monitoring. The technology supplied by Siemens meets the current criteria of digitalization and sustainability, and encompasses new building and room automation, security technology and software applications. In addition, the software-as-a-service model provides Stadtwerke Stuttgart with requirement-based state-of-the-art technology that can be flexibly adapted in the course of the project.
