India, Bengaluru: Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy will expand its operations at its centre in Bengaluru, by inaugurating its second office.
Located in Electronic City Phase-2, the facility will be home to a workforce of over 500 engineers.
The existing engineering centre is one of the three major R&D hubs for Siemens Gamesa globally, the other two being in Spain and Denmark.
The engineering centre was inaugurated in December 2018 with 500 engineers on board and over the last three years the centre has more than doubled its workforce, adding 600 engineers and underlining Siemens Gamesa’s commitment to India. The facility now employs 1,100 engineers and the number is expected to grow further in coming years as renewable momentum builds in the country.
The centre supports global engineering and technology requirements pertaining to software and engineering design for onshore and offshore wind turbines as well as service technology including software systems for wind farm monitoring and control, enhancements towards cybersecurity compliance and digitalization of business processes. Going forward, the Centre plans to build on new age digital technologies such as artificial intelligence and machine learning to help create the next generation of wind turbines for Siemens Gamesa.
“We are happy to have played an impactful role in our global R&D projects. Our growth over the last three challenging years is a testament to our contributions and to India’s software and engineering talent pool. It’s about the innovation and speed that India offers. We are confident that the skill and talent available in India will help Siemens Gamesa to design and build the next generation of wind turbines,” said Venkata Ramakrishna Ramayanam, Head of the Bengaluru Engineering Centre, commenting on the occasion.
