Global electronics and electrical engineering company Siemens launched Siemens Energy Solutions in Seoul last month as the Asia-Pacific and Middle East headquarters for its energy solutions business. Rochus Bergmann was appointed president.
The company, which will provide various solutions for thermal power generation, plans to increase the number of employees to 500 by 2017. It will build four combined cycle power plants in Dangjin, Ansan, Andong and Incheon and supply gas turbines to the plants.
Siemens expects foreign engineers to be able to share their know-how in designing eco-friendly power plants with Korean engineers through the power plant construction, and that the company’s suppliers in the fields of manufacturing, designing and construction will increase employment and enjoy higher annual sales.
