Celebrating the Railway 200 themes of Skills & Education and Innovation, Technology & Environment, the PWI presents Electrification and Innovation: Rail’s Path to Decarbonisation.
Step into the future of rail, where electrification takes centre stage as the key to achieving a net-zero transport system. This seminar will explore the holistic approach needed for 21st-century electric traction, encompassing 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.
This seminar is a great opportunity to enhance your CPD, expanding your knowledge and skills in a key area of railway infrastructure.
