Munich: In a move to advance the green hydrogen industry, technology company Siemens has entered a global partnership with Atmen, a specialist in regulatory automation. The collaboration aims to provide integrated digital solutions for green hydrogen and Power-to-X projects, which convert renewable electricity into cleaner fuels, reports Hydrogen Central.
The partnership brings together Siemens’ expertise in digital plant design with Atmen’s platform for managing compliance with environmental regulations. By combining these capabilities from the earliest stages of a project, the companies intend to help developers build facilities that are ready to meet strict and evolving standards, such as those in the EU’s Renewable Energy Directive.
Flore de Durfort, CEO of Atmen, explained the benefit of the collaboration: “Atmen’s systems can now connect directly with Siemens’ digital simulation and supply chain management tools. This turns disconnected information into a streamlined process.”
She added, “Siemens’ technology helps companies design and manage efficient supply chains and test different scenarios. When paired with our certification platform, project teams have the data they need to ensure their operations and final products consistently meet required standards.”
The agreement sets up a formal framework for the two companies to work together. They plan to identify joint sales opportunities, collaborate early on major projects and bids, and present a united front at industry events and with potential customers. A committee with senior leaders from both firms will meet twice a year to guide the partnership.
A representative from Siemens highlighted the broader goal. “Our partnership is built on a shared vision for innovation and establishing trust in the supply chain, from initial design to daily operation,” said Peter Ammann, a lead executive for Siemens’ Hydrogen business. “By joining our strengths, we are helping to make the comprehensive green hydrogen value chain a fundamental part of a future with cleaner energy.”
The partnership is not exclusive, and the companies are not merging their technologies. Instead, they will ensure their separate platforms can work together seamlessly on shared customer projects. The ultimate aim is to lower risks, reduce the overall cost of green hydrogen, and increase confidence in the sustainability of these new energy projects across Europe and globally.
