Siemens Deploys AI-Powered Building X Platform to Boost Efficiency at Seville’s San Juan de Dios Hospital

Siemens Smart Infrastructure has partnered with San Juan de Dios Hospital in Seville, Spain, to transform it into a smart and sustainable asset.

(IN BRIEF) Siemens Smart Infrastructure has implemented its Building X platform at San Juan de Dios Hospital in Seville, Spain, making the facility a model for smart and sustainable healthcare operations. The AI-powered system integrates energy management, security, and HVAC controls into a single digital solution, reducing operational costs by 35 percent and potentially achieving an additional 10 percent in savings. The platform’s combination of Siemens’ Siveillance Suite, Desigo CC, and digital applications for energy and operations management enables predictive maintenance, fault detection, and real-time optimization. Hospital Managing Director María Jesús Pareja highlighted how the technology enhances facility intelligence and patient care, while Siemens’ Delphine Clément emphasized its global significance for hospital digitalization. Part of the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio, Building X demonstrates how interoperable, AI-based technology can drive sustainability, efficiency, and cost savings in healthcare environments.

(PRESS RELEASE) MUNICH, 9-Oct-2025 — /EuropaWire/ — Siemens Smart Infrastructure has partnered with San Juan de Dios Hospital in Seville, Spain, to modernize and digitalize the facility using its advanced Building X platform — transforming it into a benchmark for smart, sustainable healthcare infrastructure. As buildings contribute roughly 40 percent of global carbon emissions and hospitals face increasing financial and environmental challenges, the initiative demonstrates how intelligent technology can drive efficiency and sustainability in critical facilities.

Through the deployment of Siemens’ AI-driven Building X and digital services, the hospital has achieved a 35 percent reduction in operational costs for analyzed assets, with an additional 10 percent in savings anticipated through early fault detection and optimized energy management. This success reinforces Siemens’ position as a leader in transforming healthcare facilities into high-performing, sustainable environments.

Founded over 450 years ago, San Juan de Dios Hospital now operates as a fully connected and intelligent facility. The Building X platform integrates key systems — including energy management, security, and Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) automation — into a single, cohesive digital ecosystem. This centralized control enables facility managers to make data-driven decisions that enhance comfort, reliability, and operational performance.

Siemens’ digital building platform, Building X, with its AI-based apps integrates energy management, security, and HVAC systems into a single solution.

“With Siemens’ technology, we have moved beyond traditional automation to create an intelligent system capable of anticipating and optimizing operations,” said María Jesús Pareja, Managing Director at San Juan de Dios Hospital. “This transformation has improved both the efficiency of our facilities and the quality of care we provide.”

Building X’s integrated architecture also includes Siemens’ Siveillance Suite for intrusion detection and the Desigo CC building management system. These systems, together with the platform’s Operations Manager and Energy Manager applications, provide real-time visibility into building performance and energy consumption. This allows for more accurate diagnostics, predictive maintenance, and measurable sustainability improvements.

“This project represents a new global milestone for hospital digitalization,” stated Delphine Clément, Global Head of Verticals at Siemens Smart Infrastructure Buildings. “By leveraging AI and open, interoperable platforms, we are helping healthcare institutions transform complexity into operational resilience, enhance patient care, and reduce costs.”

Building X is part of Siemens Xcelerator — the company’s open digital business platform that empowers customers to accelerate their digital transformation easily, quickly, and at scale. The San Juan de Dios Hospital project exemplifies how Siemens’ innovative technologies can turn data into actionable intelligence, driving both environmental and economic benefits for healthcare providers.
