Reducing the CO2 Emission of Urban guided Systems through the full recovery of the brake Energy of metro trains. (RE-USE)

Start date: Sep 1, 2012, End date: Aug 31, 2017,

Background Rail transport is often an environmentally friendly option: it is, for example, between three and five times more energy efficient than most road transport. However, there is still room for improvement and rail transport must contribute further to the EU’s effort to reduce CO2 emissions. Thus, one of the principal objectives of European railw ...

Optimal Strategy to Innovate and Reduce energy consumption In urban rail Systems (OSIRIS)

Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Mar 31, 2015,

"For many transport modes, energy reduction strategies can be effectively formulated at the level of the vehicle or vessel. New technologies can therefore be introduced to a vehicle and the direct energy savings can be readily quantified. However, such approach is not suitable to be employed for urban rail, where it is not sufficient to consider only the energy performance of vehicles; the energy ...
