AI Customer ServiceThe latest generation lithium-ion batteries give the best class performances on-board. The tram uses a DC/DC converter to properly control battery charging, for safety and efficiency. This innovation allows power to be returned to the batteries when the train brakes, reducing the overall amount of energy consumed.
The new technology is based on an onboard energy storage system (OBESS), with scalable battery capacity. It can be installed directly on the roof of existing trams - saving on costs, and visual impact – all while ensuring better environmental performance for a more sustainable society. In Florence, battery powered trams have been tested since 2021.
Hitachi Rail’s battery-powered tram technology offers the major benefit of requiring no electrified infrastructure. Our trams can operate on sections of routes with no overhead wires, such as historic city centres, like Florence, Italy, and offer range increase of up to 5km.
For reliable service, a tram should be built for 30-40 years. Saft sized the batteries to provide a lifetime of at least seven years, matching CAF’s maintenance intervals.
