Siemens POWER GENERATION (PG) develops, engineers and builds fossil-fuelled, hydro-electric, nuclear and renewable-energy power plants. As a partner to its customers during all project phases, Siemens handles everything from planning and engineering, project development and financing, and the delivery of all components to the turnkey construction and operation of facilities. The acquisition of Westinghouse's fossil fuel power plant operations has made us a premier address in the field.

Sales of our state-of-the-art instrumentation and control systems for all types of power plants continue to climb, spurred by major new orders from the oil refining industry. Superconducting current limiters function as resettable fuses in the event of a short circuit, promising major cost advantages.
