A longstanding U.S. legacy
Siemens Energy’s history in the United States dates to the 1880s, when the company began early electrification activities and opened its first U.S. manufacturing site in Pittsburgh in 1887. Siemens Energy was spun off to become a separately listed energy technology company from Siemens AG in 2020 and now operates as fully independent.
With more than 12,000 employees across 25 facilities (including eight manufacturing locations) Siemens Energy has a strong and deep-rooted footprint in the United States, further shaped by legacy brands such as Westinghouse and Dresser Rand, which have become an important part of the company’s legacy. Today, approximately 25 percent of U.S. power generation relies on Siemens Energy technologies.
The company has a proven track record of delivering critical technologies and capacity to the U.S. energy system. Last fiscal year, nearly 29% of Siemens Energy’s global order volume went to the United States.
Additionally, Siemens Energy works with almost 5,000 U.S. suppliers, placing annual orders worth approximately $1.52 billion which strengthens value creation nationwide. The company also contributes to the U.S. economic cycle through taxes and duties amounting to approximately $600 million each year.
Together, these payments amount to more than $10 billion over five years, highlighting the company’s long‑term commitment to the U.S. market.
