The UIC Energy Efficiency and CO2 Emissions Experts Network is happy to invite you to take part in the next workshop “The End of Fossil Fuels” that will be held on 13 November 2019 hosted by SBB in Zürich.
Background
Following the previous workshop that addressed the role of the infrastructure managers in traction energy transition, this workshop will focus on the projects developed by all stakeholders to push rail to full decarbonisation of traction energy.
It will therefore discuss alternatives to diesel traction and in particular, the hydrogen fuelling and battery charging innovations and their best combination with the railway network and rolling stock.
Ample time will also be dedicated during the day to exchanges and discussions between the speakers and the participants.
Workshop highlights:
- Biofuels
- Future trains & alternatives for electrification
- Energy storage
- Tools/methodology to select the appropriate technology
- Government’s point of view
