Electrification and Innovation: Rail’s Path to Decarbonisation
PWI Technical Seminar
Step into the future of rail at this dynamic seminar, where electrification takes centre stage as the key to a net-zero transport system. Discover how 21st century electric traction requires a whole systems approach to power supply, operations, signalling, train control and rolling stock illustrated through the cutting-edge Core Valley Lines project.
With Rail already being one of the largest electricity consumers in the UK, further electrification and the need to charge battery trains, along with a modal shift from road to rail, will increase that demand. The plan for the railway must be an integral part of the planned Great Grid Upgrade.
Get inspired by innovative approaches to designing electrification for faster installation, easier maintenance, and maximum efficiency. Explore the game-changing potential of AI to revolutionise electrification programmes and gain exclusive insights into international electrification successes. Hear about how sustainability is being woven into the very fabric of electrification planning on HS2, setting bold new standards for future rail projects.
Whether you’re an engineer or project manager involved in electrification, a railway operator or have an interest in sustainability, this event will spark fresh ideas and actionable strategies to facilitate electrifying the railway for a greener, cleaner tomorrow.
The Seminar will include opportunities for delegate interaction and participation, offering facilitated discussions and Q&A.
This event contributes to CPD.
