Siemens Energy has officially launched its new competence center in Romania, announcing 450 new jobs. These are in addition to the existing 200 jobs, with further growth planned for the coming period, the company claims. Siemens Energy has leased an office space in a 100% sustainable building – One Cotroceni Park, in Bucharest, for the next ten years.
“We are an independent energy company focused on transforming energy security and leading energy transition efforts. With a broad portfolio of products, solutions and services, Siemens Energy covers the entire energy value chain – from energy generation and transport to energy storage. It’s important to get people on board with us on this journey, and that includes creating and protecting long-term jobs. We are very proud that Siemens Energy is developing a skills hub here in Romania, with 450 new jobs already created to date,” says Petru Rușeț, Managing Director for Romania within Siemens Energy.
“Our goal is to become a world-leading competence center for Siemens Energy and to create a modern, inclusive, diverse and healthy work environment. We are on a mission to support customers around the world to meet growing global energy demand while transitioning to a more sustainable world, ensuring our climate is protected. We know we cannot do this alone and must continue to collaborate with our partners as we strive for sustainability on our journey to decarbonisation.”
The Minister of Energy, Virgil Popescu, attended the inauguration of the new offices of Siemens Energy in Romania:
“A fruitful collaboration exists and continues to exist between the Ministry of Energy and Siemens Energy in Romania. The opening of the competence center covering Europe, the Middle East and Africa represents a new stage in the continued development of our relationship. I trust that the newly recruited young engineers will show the world what Romanians are capable of when they set their sights on something. And I hope that in the near future new opportunities for development and collaboration will be created.”
Siemens Energy, one of the world’s leading energy technology companies, has renewed its commitment to Romania, announcing investments, supply chain opportunities and new job creation.
Siemens Energy has a long history with Romania, which began in 1905, when the first electricity company in Bucharest was founded under the Siemens umbrella.
In 2020, Siemens Energy separated from Siemens AG to become an independent energy technology company with the aim of leading the energy transition. Today, this company invests in Romania by creating new jobs and by committing, in the long term, to contribute to the acceleration of the energy transition process.
