The acquisition of Heliox seems to be the most strategically imperative move for Siemens to form intricate and large ventures.

After acquiring Heliox, Siemens eMobility reported improving its IoT product portfolio and digitization services. According to Siemens, the acquisition is the most strategic and imperative move for the company to elevate its position in the charging solutions ecosystem and leverage the seamless implementation of intricate and large ventures. 

Heliox is considered one of the leaders in DC fast charging solutions provider for passenger vehicles, truck fleets, and buses. The Netherlands-based company was acquired by Siemens in January 2024 and employed more than 330 people. The acquisition is considered to be a game-changer for Siemen’s charging portfolios, with adding products and solutions ranging from 40 kilowatts (kW) to megawatt charging solutions for depots and en-route charging.

Siemens is now broadly supporting Germany’s Hamburger Hochbahn’s mission of a complete carbon-free e-bus fleet by 2030. The latter has even unveiled the world’s first electrified bus terminal, serving 467 million passengers annually. To help Hochbahn meet its mission, Siemens has provided 324 charging points with a capacity of 50 MW, while Heliox has offered 229 charging points. The merger helped set up 553 charging points, which has had a massive positive impact on decreasing carbon emissions from public transport in the Hamburg area.

Siemens has also signed an agreement with Germany’s EV charging provider E.ON, which includes SICHARGE D fast charging stations and backend access via Sifinity control, a cloud-based application for Siemens chargers that helps increase the availability and uptime of charging infrastructure. Siemens aims to lead the global charging industry by forming partnerships with leading charging solutions providers. At the IAA event in Hannover, the company will display its top-notch technologies Megawatt Charging System (MCS) prototype, which delivered a 1 MW charge. The SICHARGE D 400, a DC fast-charging compact charger, appears to have power up to 400 kW, features liquid-cooled cables, dynamic power distribution, and high efficiency.

At the IAA, Siemens is highly anticipated to unleash its EV software solutions, dubbed Depot360, including Depot360 CaaS (Charging-as-a-Service) and Managed Services. It will offer a turnkey solution with zero upfront investment, consultation, financing, depot design, construction, commissioning, and operations management.
