Siemens and Airbus Partner to Cut Carbon Emissions at Major Sites

Driving Decarbonization Across the U.S. and UK

Siemens and Airbus have launched a new partnership to reduce carbon emissions at four major Airbus sites in the U.S. and the UK. The companies aim to transform these locations into sustainable and energy-efficient operations by 2030. Siemens leads the effort, while Capgemini supports consulting, project management, and planning.

Clear Goals for Energy and CO₂ Reduction

The collaboration began in summer 2025 with detailed decarbonization planning. Siemens targets a 20% drop in energy use and an 85% cut in CO₂ emissions by 2030. Together, the partners aim to help Airbus eliminate 80,000 tons of CO₂ annually.

Leveraging Digital Twins for Smarter Decisions

Siemens engineers use digital twins to model and simulate each site’s energy system. These models help identify the best mix of solutions to cut emissions. The approach enables precise decisions on renewable integration and system upgrades.

Innovative Technologies for Sustainable Impact

The plans include installing renewable energy systems, heat pumps, and advanced efficiency upgrades. Siemens will deploy intelligent meters and smart energy management platforms to monitor and optimize energy use. The companies plan to begin infrastructure expansion in 2026.

Ensuring Long-Term Efficiency and Resilience

Siemens will manage operations and maintenance to guarantee continuous performance. This long-term partnership ensures each site remains efficient, resilient, and aligned with Airbus’s global sustainability goals.

A Partnership Built on Decades of Innovation

Siemens and Airbus have worked together for over 50 years on automation, digitalization, and industrial safety. This new initiative extends their collaboration into the next phase of sustainable manufacturing transformation.
