CRRC Leads the Way to a Low Carbon Future at InnoTrans 2024

A Commitment to Sustainable Transport Solutions

Under the theme of On Track for a Low Carbon Future, CRRC Corporation Limited (SHA: 601766) is set to showcase its cutting-edge passenger and freight transportation solutions, alongside comprehensive life-cycle system solutions, at InnoTrans 2024 in Berlin, Germany. The event will feature the world premiere of two innovative, eco-friendly trains: the CINOVA H2 New Energy Intelligent Intercity Train and the Autonomous Rail Rapid Transit (ART) 2.0. Attendees can visit Stand 210, Hall 4.2 to explore these advancements that promise to reshape the future of rail travel.

Green Intelligent Passenger Transport Solutions

CRRC will present its environmentally responsible and intelligent passenger transport offerings, which include the Intelligent Electric Multiple Unit (EMU), Intercity/Regional EMU, Intelligent Urban Rail Transit systems, and New Energy Passenger Transportation technologies. These innovations cater to various speed levels and application scenarios, aiming for a future of passenger transport that is faster, greener, smarter, and more cost-effective than ever before.

Among the standout products redefining passenger mobility are the 350 km/h High-Speed Intelligent EMU, the CINOVA 2.0 New Intelligent Intercity/Regional EMU, the 160 km/h Hydrogen Full-Automatic Intelligent Regional Train, and the Autonomous Rail Rapid Transit (ART). Each of these models exemplifies CRRC’s commitment to sustainable transit solutions, designed to enhance operational efficiency while significantly reducing environmental impact.

Diversified Freight Transport Solutions

In addition to passenger transport, CRRC is also set to unveil a wide array of heavy-duty, fast, and environmentally responsible freight transport solutions. To meet the increasing demand for higher freight capacity across global supply chains, CRRC plans to introduce several new products, including the 24-axle Freight Electric Locomotive and the 45-ton Axle Load Ore Car. The 350 km/h High-Speed Freight EMU, recognized as the fastest and most spacious in the industry, will be a key highlight.

In alignment with the global drive towards green transportation, CRRC will launch a series of new energy locomotives, including diesel-battery hybrid locomotives, power battery locomotives, and hydrogen-battery hybrid locomotives. These innovative locomotives will boast power levels ranging from 1000KW to 2000KW, offering diversified solutions and greater choices for the global railway freight sector while also promoting lower carbon emissions.

Full Life-Cycle System Solutions

Beyond individual train units, CRRC will demonstrate its expertise with the Train-Ground Integrated Electromechanical System (TIES). This innovative system focuses on integrating all related operating scenarios, allowing for the reconstruction, integration, and optimisation of the electromechanical system. TIES encompasses critical components such as power supply, signalling, track maintenance, depot management, and passenger service scenarios. This holistic approach exemplifies the Train-Ground Integration concept, driving overall efficiency gains across disciplines and throughout the entire vehicle-road-station-depot lifecycle.

Additionally, CRRC will present its Digital Life-Cycle System Solution (DLS) at the event. This flexible solution is designed to cater to various city sizes and populations, offering tailored system designs that support diverse business models such as public-private partnerships (PPP), system integration, and electro-mechanical turnkey projects. By focusing on user experience and addressing the varied needs of the global rail transit market, CRRC aims to set a new standard in rail transport solutions that are both innovative and sustainable.
