Welcome to this episode I have the pleasure of speaking with Tor Krog, the Nordic Head of eMobility at Siemens Smart Infrastructure. Today, we will be exploring the future of transportation in cities, and how electrification plays a crucial role in building resilient and sustainable urban environments.

As cities continue to grow and expand, it is becoming increasingly important to find sustainable solutions that can accommodate the transportation needs of residents while minimizing the impact on the environment. This is where electrification comes in, and Siemens is at the forefront of this effort, developing innovative solutions to address the challenges that cities face.

We will be discussing the important role that electrification plays in creating resilient cities, and how Siemens is contributing to this effort through strategic marketing, technology commercialization, project management, and market development. We will also be examining the challenges that cities face in the process of electrification and how they can overcome them.

One of the key components of electrification is the development of infrastructure for electric vehicles, such as charging stations. We will be discussing the importance of this infrastructure in creating a sustainable city and how Siemens is working to implement these solutions.

We will also be exploring the benefits of electric buses and ferries in terms of reducing emissions and improving public transportation, as well as how electrification will impact urban planning and design in the future.

Siemens is working with cities around the world to implement sustainable and resilient transportation solutions, and we will be discussing specific projects and initiatives that they have implemented to promote electrification in cities.

Lastly, we will be discussing how electrification impacts energy consumption and management in cities, and how it can be optimized for efficiency and sustainability. We will also be providing advice to cities that are just starting to explore electrification as a solution to their transportation challenges.

So join us for this fascinating discussion with Tor Didrik Krog as we explore the future of transportation in cities and the role of electrification in building sustainable and resilient urban environments.

In this episode, Tor and I explore the questions and issues around the following:

  • How do you see the future of transportation in cities, given the need for sustainable and resilient solutions?
  • Can you tell us about the role of electrification in building r
