With the work
inaugurated today, the Rail Service Center of Novara, Italy is a candidate to
be one of the thirteen world centers of excellence managed by Siemens Mobility
for the maintenance of rolling stock - passenger trains, high-speed trains,
locomotives, subways - and the second in Europe for locomotive maintenance
after the Allach factory site in Germany.
- CBTC
signaling system and GoA4 operation to be implemented across a 22.8 km route, at
23 stations, and on 25 trains
- GoA4
functionality will allow for full automated driverless train operations
- The automated
signaling system will provide greater availability, enhanced operations, and
better passenger experience
Siemens Mobility, along with consortium partners ST
Engineering and Stadler, have been awarded an Electrical and Mechanical (E&M)
turnkey contract to deliver the Yellow Line for Kaohsiung Metro. Siemens
Mobility will provide its state-of-the-art CBTC signaling technology with GoA4
functionality, which will allow for full automated train operations (ATO). Furthermore,
Siemens Mobility will deliver its highly reliable and precise Airlink radio
communication system which will facilitate the communication of wayside and
onboard signaling equipment, that will be installed on the new trains.
Twelve Siemens
Mobility trams have been in service in Ulm since 2018. A further six vehicles
have been reordered and the first Avenio M will be put on the rails this week -
around 10 months ahead of the announced delivery date.
- Siemens and partners launch safe.trAIn
research project
- Practicable linking of AI processes with
requirements and approval procedures in railway environments
- AI-based methodologies for driverless
regional trains
- Safe.trAIn to support standardization
activities in AI and rail transportation
In a project that will run until the end of 2024, Siemens
and 16 partners will facilitate advances in the driverless operation of
regional trains with the aid of artificial intelligence (AI). Within the “safe.trAIn”
project, which the German government is subsidizing, there is a budget of €23 million
available for this task. Solutions for meeting the requirements in this highly
regulated and standardized environment have the potential to substantially boost
the efficiency and sustainability of regional railway transportation.
- TÜV SÜD issues 3 new certificates for proven cybersecurity
- Protection against cyberattacks and response to legal requirements
- Tailored cybersecurity for every project
- Major extension to ISO 27001 certification
Siemens Mobility has received three new
certifications by Germany’s TÜV SÜD for meeting the international cybersecurity
standard IEC 62443. These new certifications cover products and solutions associated with the Rolling Stock and Rail
Infrastructure Business Units, including high-speed trains, regional trains,
metros, trams, and locomotives, as well as rolling stock components. They also apply
to first products installed in the critical infrastructure solutions. Together,
all these aspects represent the largest scope worldwide ever certified in
accordance with IEC 62443.
Siemens Mobility is supplying 21 Vectron Dual Mode locomotives to Deutsche Bahn. This is the first deployment of the Vectron Dual Mode in passenger transport. The locomotives are intended for trips to Sylt in the north and Oberstdorf in the south of Germany.
- 27 battery-powered trains for Landesanstalt
Schienenfahrzeuge Baden-Württemberg (SFBW)
- Innovative and energy-efficient battery-powered hybrid platform that
can be operated with or without overhead lines
- Siemens Mobility delivers
further 38 Mireo Plus B trains to Niederbarnimer Eisenbahn (NEB) and Midtjyske
Jernbaner in Denmark
Siemens
Mobility presents the Mireo Plus B battery train to the public for the first
time at InnoTrans 2022. The Landesanstalt Schienenfahrzeuge
Baden-Württemberg (SFBW) has ordered 27 Mireo Plus B trains from Siemens
Mobility in 2020. The two-car electric trainsets with
120 seats can operate on rail routes with or without overhead power lines
thanks to their battery hybrid drive and are scheduled to operate in Network 8
of the Ortenau regional system. Delivery of the multiple units is scheduled
between June and December 2023.
- Line B of the
Rennes metro enters revenue service
- Siemens Mobility
has equipped the entire line with the Cityval, a turnkey driverless automatic
metro system
- The Cityval of
Rennes Line B is a world premiere
With the commissioning of the new state-of-the-art
automated metro Line B in Rennes, Siemens Mobility has once again demonstrated
its leading expertise in delivering fully automated turnkey metro systems. Crossing
the Rennes metropolitan area along a South-West axis, Line B has 15 stations
spread over 13 km. 20 years after the first metro line in Rennes opened with
VAL technology (Line A), Rennes Métropole and SEMTCAR renewed their trust in
Siemens Mobility to equip the second metro line in the city with the new
generation of the automated metro system, Cityval.
The world’s largest trade fair for transport technology – InnoTrans – will be held in Berlin from September 20 to 23. Siemens Mobility will showcase its products in hub 27, booth 230 and in the outdoor exhibition area.
Rail is seen as the game-changer in combating climate change – and digitalization will play a major role in managing the growing demand for mobility. Digital technologies, services and innovations allow for better availability, more punctuality and better utilization of trains, which benefits the operator and the customer.
Under the
motto “Destination digital” at InnoTrans, Siemens Mobility presents four
crucial levers for supporting its customers in providing sustainable,
comfortable, and cost-effective rail traffic: lifecycle cost optimized rail
infrastructure and rolling stock, 100% system availability, maximized network
capacity and optimized customer experience and processes.
Siemens Mobility and Cattron presented the
next development phase of the government-funded research project Autonomous
Tram in Depot today at InnoTrans 2022: remote train operation (RTO). The world
premiere marks the next critical milestone for RTO in the project and was
successfully presented today to the project organizer TÜV Rheinland at the
depot of the public transportation company ViP Verkehrsbetrieb Potsdam GmbH.
