We Will Not Be Happy in Just Adding One Coach Or Upgrading One Station ‘ We will not be happy in just adding one coach or upgrading one station. We want both horizontal and vertical development of the railways. It can become the engine of Indian economy. ‘ Shri Narendra Modi, Honorable Prime Minister of India CII has been playing a catalytic role in bringing together the Government, Industry and key stakeholders under one platform to network, deliberate on topical issues and trends, and share best practices on new developments and technological advancement. Towards this, CII has been organizing a series of exhibitions and trade shows in the country and overseas for the last 40 years. Shobana Kamineni The Indian Railways sector is undergoing President, CII transformation and several initiatives have been undertaken to increase capacity and improve infrastructure. With heightened investments in rail projects and mega projects like dedicated freight corridors and the High Speed Rail (HSR) link, the Indian Rail transportation sector offers tremendous opportunities for global business community.

Metro + Light Rail will also be held alongside. IR and Japan-India cooperation for exciting partnerships in Shinkansen technology & railway infrastructure Japan’s Shinkansen system is recognized for its outstanding safety record and has earned trust throughout the world. Safety and stability are maintained by comprehensive technologies, which range from train sets and control devices to operating management systems. The start-up phase of HSR construction requires large numbers of workers to build facilities and manufacture rolling stock in a short period. Railway operations, management, maintenance and related businesses create numerous jobs over the medium and long term. A long term vision Japan is also well positioned to assist India in modernising its railway infrastructure. Business opportunities abound in a wide range of areas Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Prime Minister Shinzo Abe at the inagural event of the Ahmedabad - Mumbai highspeed link including manufacturing, infrastructure projects, HSR projects; railway lines to and from coal mines and ports, projects relating to electrification, suburban corridors, dedicated freight corridors, re-development of There is increasing interest and excitement about the prospects for railway stations, freight terminal operations, rolling stock units and Japan-India cooperation in the railway sector. In the annual bilateral summit with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, one of the major topics for network expansion. discussion was the Shinkansen. This splendid project symbolises the close links that have been forged between the two nations. For the funding of future rail projects, the Indian government is increasing its budget for railways. The challenges include ‘years of The Shinkansen represents an excellent opportunity for the Japanese under-investment in infrastructure’ which has left India’s network railway sector and its ancillary industries. The significance of this event ‘overstretched with more than 60% of routes being more than 100% clearly extends far beyond the commercial and technical spheres to utilised’. A ‘lack of customer focus’ has resulted in an ‘inability to meet encompass strategic and geopolitical issues and recent the demands of both its freight and passenger customers. Apart from the developments. Naturally, the cementing of the agreement will place quantum of investment, quality of delivery is also an issue’. Japan in a strong position for other six Shinkansen routes being planned. Clearly the economic benefits of the friendship and This portrayal of a veritable laundry-list of failings serves to set the stage cooperation are set to continue to grow strongly. for the positivity of the Government response. During Prime Minister Abe’s visit to Ahmedabad, the historic first step of the Mumbai- Ahmedabad High-Speed Rail (MAHSR) project was inaugurated at Sabarmati, Gujarat on 14th September in the presence of Prime Minister Modi, Railway Minister Goyal and other important dignitaries. The MAHSR project is a symbol of the solid and stable strategic global partnership between Japan and India. I expect that this High-Speed Rail project will become a catalyst for further innovation not only in the Indian Railways, but also in the Indian society and economy. The Japanese “Shinkansen” system has maintained a zero-casualty record since its inauguration in 1964. I believe that the introduction of Shinkansen technology in India through transfer of technology and “Make in India” initiatives will certainly lead to noticeable improvement in the safety standards and up-gradation of the service level in the conventional railway network in India. In addition, the MAHSR will create a new industrial cluster in India, expanding employment opportunities for the newly-skilled Indian workforce with knowledge of state-of-the-art H.E. Kenji Hiramatsu technology of High Speed Railways. Ambassador of Japan to India Especially, in the field of rail safety in India, the Government of Japan is working closely with the Ministry of Railways to find out possible measures to improve safety and service level in the conventional network in India. Finally, I would like to reiterate that the Japan-India relationship represents a mark of certainty in the age of uncertainty. I believe that this relationship will be further enhanced through the cooperation on the MAHSR project and the conventional rail network in India. I hope and wish that the railway industries of various countries can cultivate further cooperation and business ties among each other, with candid exchange of ideas in “the 12th IREE 2017.” INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION AND CONFERENCE ON RAILWAYS 11 October, 2017 10:00 Hours INAUGURAL SESSION C P Sharma, Chairman, CII Rail Transportation and Equipment Division and Managing Director, Daulat Ram Engineering Pvt Ltd.

  • Solar Assisted Power Supply for Rail Coaches M. Shravanth Vasisht
    Solar Assisted Power Supply for Rail Coaches M. Shravanth Vasisht, Indian Institute of Science, India Vishal C, Indian Institute of Science, India J. Srinivasan, Indian Institute of Science, India Sheela K. Ramasesha, Indian Institute of Science, India The North American Conference on Sustainability, Energy & the Environment 2014 Official Conference Proceedings Abstract We have examined the feasibility of installing solar photovoltaic modules atop train coaches in India. Most long distance trains of Indian Railways consist of Alstom-LHB (Linke Hofmann Busch) coaches that do not have self-generating systems, making diesel generator cars mandatory to supply the required power for the electrical loads of the coaches. The feasibility of supplementing the diesel generator sets with power from solar photovoltaic modules installed on the coach rooftops has been studied. The area available on the roof of the coach was found to be more than sufficient to meet the electrical lighting load through photovoltaic modules. For the case study, a typical railway route that covers a distance of 1,800 km has been considered. The saving of diesel was around 90,000 litre per year per train-set. The analysis indicates that the return on investment is around 4 years. In addition, this scheme will reduce the CO2 emission by 239 tons per year per train. Indian Railways being the largest railway network of the world, operates 160 LHB trains in a day. Hence a significant savings in Diesel and reduction in CO2 emissions can be achieved. Keywords: Railway, Solar, Renewable, Energy, Transportation, Sustainable iafor The International Academic Forum www.iafor.org Introduction The transportation sector is a major contributor to the global CO2 emission and global warming.
