Energy optimization
All encompassing optimization for railway systems
Energy accounts for a significant amount of the overall costs of railway systems. Minimizing energy consumption is a complex task, as there are many different factors involved. A wide variety of vehicles circulating over
different types of infrastructures with demanding operations must coexist while maintaining high levels of safety and availability. Therefore, new holistic approaches are needed. You can significantly reduce your operation costs with our energy optimization technologies.
