Award: Environment certificate for new Siemens location in Turkey


Siemens CEO Peter Löscher himself was there and officially opened a new facility in the Turkish city of Gebze. Siemens Energy produces medium and high voltage power distributors there. SRE was responsible both for the construction of the production, the offices and warehouse buildings. The new Siemens production site will receive the highest environmental award (LEED-Gold) in the New Construction category.

The new Siemens site in Gebze (in the Kocaeli province east of Istanbul) is a complex covering an area of 35,000 sqm. It comprises production areas (16,000 sqm), as well as office and work areas (6,000 sqm). It also includes a canteen, a cafeteria, meeting rooms, a sports center, a health unit, an exhibition hall, staff rooms and technical infrastructure for the Energy Sector.


With the new building, the Siemens Sector is expanding its production capacities and optimizing its workflows. The modular design of the production building allows for different types of production and expansion in the future. The building complex is a paradigm for environmentally friendly construction and energy efficient technology. Its energy consumption is almost 25 percent below that of a comparable building, which means cost savings of about 295,000 Euros a year. Due to the reuse of rain water for irrigation and efficient fittings, the drinking water consumption is also 72 percent lower.

The building complex will be the first newly built Siemens site worldwide and at the same time the first production plant in Turkey to receive the coveted LEED Certificate (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) in gold.
