Energy meters provide accurate energy consumption data of train runs. This is a very promising means to create an economic incentive for operators to save energy. At the same time, monitoring of energy saving measures is considerably improved. Experience from DB AG demonstrates that a quick roll-out is both technically and economically feasible. |
