- New battery power module package enables
environmentally friendly
last-mile operation
- First order for two locomotives equipped with battery
power module
Siemens Mobility has
received its first order for Vectron locomotives equipped with a battery
module. The battery module enables the Vectron to operate for short distances
without an overhead power line, offering an eco-friendly way to cover the
so-called last mile of service and carry out shunting runs without an overhead
line. The energy needed for this is supplied by a high-voltage lithium-ion
battery pack with an intelligent battery management system to control charging
and discharging. Development of this functional package was funded as part of
the federal “Future of Rail Freight Transport” program, aimed at quickly bringing
to market rail innovations that strengthen competitiveness and logistics
capabilities.
