Siemensstadt Square is being developed as an open, attractive and continuous area. Intelligent, future-oriented architecture and integral planning ensure its quality and identity. Quality of life for all is created between new urban buildings and public open spaces.

The most diverse uses of buildings offer development opportunities for different life and work models. A lively mix of uses brings together diverse target groups.

Siemensstadt Square is being developed in coordination with the city society. CO₂ neutrality, responsible use of resources and sustainable infrastructures protect and respect not only the Berliners of today, but also future generations.

Be part of the future:

Locally generated renewable energy makes an important contribution to the energy supply of the new Siemensstadt Square, relieves the climate and enables its independence from energy markets. Sector coupling (electricity, mobility, heat) makes a major contribution to exploiting local energy potentials.

Energy requirements that go beyond the energy generated on site are covered in a CO₂-neutral manner and as far as possible regionally from renewable energies.

Security of supply is ensured by connecting to the basic supply wherever possible within a dynamic smart grid (intelligent energy network).

The energy turnaround is made tangible on site: through visualization, educational opportunities and interactive technology.

As the key to achieving the energy turnaround, the economical use of energy contributes significantly to CO₂-neutral operation. To this end, systems, equipment and buildings will meet a modern, ambitious energy efficiency standard.

All buildings will be based on at least the second-highest energy efficiency standard for primary energy requirements that is eligible for KfW funding: in 2020, for example, the KfW Efficiency House 55 standard for new buildings.

During operation, energy consumption is continuously optimized through monitoring, smart control and user information.

Siemensstadt Square is based on the most modern processes in the use of sustainable building materials and the reuse of demolition materials on site. New and newly discovered construction methods to reduce the CO₂ footprint and the ecological effects of construction are given preference. Healthy building materials create livable interiors, protect the environment and prepare for reuse in an optimal way.

By selecting materials with value retention, intelligent design and documentation, Siemensstadt Square will become a raw materials depot. Taking into account the entire life cycle of the buildings, urban mining - the later reuse of the raw materials processed during construction - is being prepared.

The principle of "zero waste" for construction and operation is actively pursued in cooperation with other actors. Digitization and social networking are helping to accelerate the transformation to a circular economy.

A sensitive surface design and the intelligent combination of greenery with water elements reduce the heat island effect, improve air quality and contribute to a healthy urban climate.

Integrated rainwater management protects the natural water balance and groundwater, reduces the risk of heavy rainfall and creates attractive outdoor spaces.

The area-wide expansion with 5G transmission masts and a fiber optic network opens up all the potential of digitization. Smart buildings and urban technology use the Internet of Things (IoT) and are continuously improving through data analysis and artificial intelligence.

In the city of short distances, you can travel multimodally with a wide variety of means of transport: a wide range of mobility offers allow flexible and demand-oriented locomotion. The climate-neutral transformation of transport systems is promoted by charging infrastructures, a focus on walking and cycling, and optimal integration into public transport networks. Even airspace should be able to be used as a transport route in the future.
