Siemens Energy to Launch Omterra Brand, Uniting with Siemens Gamesa

Siemens Energy Announces Rebranding and Strategic Transition

Background of the Rebranding Initiative

DUESSELDORF, July 14 (Reuters) - Siemens Energy started preparing for the transition to an independent brand, the German energy provider said on Tuesday, with the current entities Siemens Energy and Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy to be united under the name Omterra.

Reason for the Change

The move is based on the time-limited license agreement governing the use of the brand following its spin-off from Siemens AG in 2020, the company said in a statement.

Implementation Timeline

Stages of the Rebranding Process

"The rebranding process is scheduled to begin later this calendar year and will be implemented in stages," it said.

Key Takeaways

  • The new name, Omterra, will replace both Siemens Energy and Siemens Gamesa under a unified brand, starting later this calendar year. The rebranding follows a time‑limited license agreement established during the 2020 spin‑off from Siemens AG.
  • Despite the name change, the company emphasizes continuity: no strategic, operational, or customer‑facing changes are expected during or after the transition.
  • Siemens Energy was spun off from Siemens AG in 2020 under agreements ensuring its independence, including brand licensing terms and governance safeguards — the rebrand reflects the expiry of those terms and marks a new independent identity.
