Siemens Partners With Uae Government to Enhance Sustainability in Public Buildings

Siemens has secured a significant contract to retrofit 60 government buildings in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) with advanced Internet of Things (IoT) sensors and software, aiming to reduce energy and water consumption by 27% annually across these facilities. This initiative is part of the UAE’s broader strategy to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050.

The project follows successful retrofits of seven buildings belonging to the Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure, where Siemens implemented energy efficiency and user comfort solutions, resulting in a 20% reduction in energy and water usage. The upcoming phase will focus on healthcare and education facilities, utilizing the insights gained from the initial retrofits.

Siemens plans to upgrade heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, integrate movement and lighting sensors, and install centralized building management systems to optimize energy management. These measures are expected to significantly reduce carbon emissions and enhance operational efficiency.
