AI Customer ServiceHitachi Rail, Angel Trains, and TransPennine Express just wrapped up the trial, which took place in the north of England. It proved that powerful batteries offer significant benefits for emissions, fuel savings, and air quality. Hitachi has already rolled out passenger battery trains in Japan and Europe, like the Masaccio hybrid in Italy.
“We have very, very high standards on fire protection, the trains have to be crash-proof and vandalism-proof and of course, if we bring batteries or hydrogen on to the train, we can’t reduce safety,” Brockmeyer says. “That’s why some battery technologies just cannot be applied to the railways.”
The battery-electric version of the Siemens train is equipped to operate with batteries and overhead wires, with a battery only range of 80 km (50 mi) reaching a maximum speed of 100 km/h (62 mph) in battery mode. The trains are to be tested on regional and suburban rail lines on electrified and unelectrified track.
This success gives Hitachi the green light to move on to a full intercity battery- electric train, with an estimated range of 100-150 km. That would allow significant stretches of non-electrified routes to go battery-powered, avoiding the need for expensive infrastructure like overhead wires in tunnels or stations.
Tram and light rail systems were the first to employ battery traction, as their comparatively lightweight rolling stock means they require less power than a main line freight or passenger train.
Hitachi has already rolled out passenger battery trains in Japan and Europe, like the Masaccio hybrid in Italy. The intercity battery trial train in the UK demonstrated that the 700 kW battery could push the train past 75 mph and power it for over 70 km.
