Halcrow’s Traction and Rolling Stock team, as part of Halcrow Group Ltd’s Rail Business, provides experience in all stages of railway vehicle development, from concept through design, procurement, manufacture, testing and commissioning, operation, warranty, reliability, maintenance and overhaul. Furthermore, while undertaking the above we also take into consideration how our actions will impact not only on the railway environment but on the environment as a whole.
As well as the interfaces with the railway infrastructure, our expertise covers a broad spectrum of rail vehicle systems and specialist fields, from the design and introduction of new lighting systems to the commissioning of electric and diesel traction packages. This has been applied to multiple units, coaches, locomotives, freight vehicles, light rail, metros and on-track machines.
With specific reference to this conference Halcrow Group Limited has considered the following approached to better energy management within the railway environment.
- Energy storage technologies such as: lithium-ion batteries, ultra capacitors, flywheels
- Energy saving technologies such as: coasting
- Benefits (for example: saving dynamic braking energy, saving traction energy, reducing total installed power, reducing noise in stations, etc)
- Suitability of different technologies for various railway duty cycles (for example: light rail vehicles, commuter trains, high speed trains)
- Existing applications and development from around the world
