At the Berlin Forum, Syrian Energy Minister Mohammed Bashir stated that the government plans to add 5,000 megawatts of generation capacity and advance nearly 4,700 megawatts of solar and wind power projects. Siemens Energy will provide approximately 2,000 megawatts of turbine equipment. Senior German government officials participated in the signing ceremony. Hussein Shukri, Managing Director of Siemens Energy for the Middle East and Africa, said, "Discussions focused on strengthening economic ties between Syria and Germany, and emphasized the importance of supporting reconstruction efforts." This cooperation marks a key role for Siemens Energy in Syria's energy reconstruction.

Siemens Energy has had a presence in Syria for some time, having previously built the country's largest power plant, the Deir Ali Power Plant. In the Middle East region, the company has an installed capacity of 11.65 gigawatts in Iraq and plans to add approximately 14 gigawatts; it has also secured grid expansion contracts in Saudi Arabia.

Siemens Energy did not provide a specific timeline or investment figures, but Hussein stated: "Syria is on a path to recovery, and reliable access to energy will play a crucial role in this journey—supporting stability, fostering economic activity, and laying the groundwork for future growth." Siemens Energy's involvement is a significant step in Syria's energy reconstruction and is expected to help restore the power system.
