Siemens Energy has received a follow-up order for the supply of an SST-400 steam turbine-generator as an extension to the turbine building in the chemical industrial park in Wilton, UK. The purchaser is the park operator Sembcorp UK. The turbine with generator and auxiliary systems is scheduled to leave the Siemens turbine factory in Görlitz after only 13 months.

Siemens Energy is celebrating following its success at the first national manufacturing awards hosted by the manufacturers’ organisation, EEF in London last week.

Siemens Energy has today welcomed the government’s plans for the national roll-out of smart meters but insists that energy distribution companies need to play an active role if the Department of Energy and Climate Change is to meet its ambitious targets.
