Energy Management
With more than 350 million gallons of fuel saved annually and 3.5 million metric tons of CO2 emissions reduction per year, Wabtec’s energy management solutions are powering a greener, cleaner, and more sustainable future.
Save fuel and reduce emissions. Improve train handling. Enhance train automation.
Locomotive fuel is a major factor in railroad operations, comprising, on average, 15-20% of operating expenses and 90% of a railroad’s greenhouse gas emissions. Wabtec’s integrated, scalable energy management solutions are built to maximize fuel efficiency to help rail operators meet their operational and environmental goals.
Trip Optimizer™
Trip Optimizer is a smart cruise control system for trains that reduces fuel usage and provides efficient train handling. It is certified by EPA to save 10% in fuel usage.
Trip Optimizer™ SmartHPT
SmartHPT provides incremental fuel savings by optimizing train performance for a given HPT (Horse Power per Ton) target.
