Climate change is one of the greatest existential threats to humanity, evidenced in recent years by the amplification of global warming, as well as the increasing frequency and severity of natural disasters such as floods, fires, and storms. Urgent development and implementation of solutions are required before the economic, social, and health impacts become much more severe and ultimately irreparable.
While progress is being made, challenges persist. Global demand for energy continues to grow, and around 800 million people still lack access to electricity. In many cases, decarbonization solutions are still economically unfavorable. Energy security and access to energy need to be addressed, requiring geopolitical and technological solutions. But even with technological advancements and increased interconnection, a number of new challenges arise. With greater reliance on digitalization, physical and cybersecurity for energy assets is becoming increasingly concerning.
As a global energy technology company that operates locally, we develop and implement national energy roadmaps and innovative solutions, helping nations and companies increase decarbonization, energy security, and access to energy, leading to lasting social and economic growth. Our projects in Egypt, Iraq, and Nigeria have and will decarbonize energy production, providing lasting economic benefits. Our new and advanced technologies, such as green hydrogen production and artificial intelligence tools in the United Arab Emirates, open new industries and provide new skills, increasing efficiency and reducing emissions.
We are at a critical moment to tackle the existing energy threats on Earth. We believe that challenges can only be overcome through strong partnerships. The Munich Security Conference is an excellent forum to build collaboration and develop a framework for creating and implementing solutions to humanity’s greatest threats.
Christian Bruch, CEO of Siemens Energy: “Climate change, access to energy, and energy security are at the forefront of international attention. As a global energy company at the forefront of the energy transformation, focused on energizing society in a sustainable, efficient, and accessible way, Siemens Energy is ideally positioned to partner with the Munich Security Conference.”
Ambassador Wolfgang Ischinger, Chair of the Munich Security Conference: “We are very pleased to have secured Siemens Energy as a new partner for the Munich Security Conference. As an international driver of innovation and transformation processes, Siemens Energy is an excellent partner for future topics at the Munich Security Conference.”
