Vivarail - fast charging system
Pioneering emission-free trains and setting new standards for clean, green rail travel
The UK’s only battery train with a range of 60 miles between charges
“We know that travelling or moving goods by train is more sustainable for the environment. Yet the challenge remains to encourage new technology and new thinking to make it ever more environmentally-friendly. What the Vivarail project team have achieved is extremely encouraging in supporting the delivery of battery-powered rolling stock in the UK. Exploring the opportunity offered by this technology is crucial in delivering the Department for Transport’s future national rail strategy, supported by Innovate UK. As we move away from diesel traction the expertise developed in this project will promote the UK as being at the forefront of this exciting growth area.”
Kelvin Davies, Innovation Lead for Rail at InnovateUK
