Urban Mobility Systems: Regulation Across Modes - the View of an Operator Urban Mobility Systems: Regulation Across Modes - the View of an Operator 1st European Intermodal Transport Regulation Forum Deutsche Bahn AG Dr. Markus Ksoll Head of Associations and Länder Policy Florence, 07 December 2012 Key Hypotheses Public transport regulation is characterized by mode-specific approaches – market regimes differ according to economic and political conditions Among benchmarks with positive track records are “open access” in long-distance passenger rail transport and “competition for the market” in regional/ urban passenger rail transport Transport operators are fit to provide embracing mobility solutions across modes - public authorities should set reliable frameworks for entrepreneurial and customer-oriented behavior, rather than hamper or fulfill entrepreneurial activities themselves Finance levels and instruments for infrastructure investment are key success factors for public transport, demand-driven prioritization and investment incentives should be safeguarded 2 Agenda DB at a glance Intramodal finance and regulation Entrepreneurial solutions across modes 3 DB comprises three divisions and nine business units Passenger transport: Infrastructure: Transport and logistics: Domestic and European-wide Efficient and future-oriented rail Intelligent logistics services mobility services infrastructure in Germany via land, air and the sea DB Bahn Long Distance DB Netze Track DB Schenker Rail Long-distance rail passenger Rail network European rail freight transport transport1 DB Bahn Regional DB Netze Stations DB Schenker Logistics Regional/urban passenger Traffic stations Global logistics services transport (Germany) DB Arriva DB Netze Energy DB Services3 Regional/urban passenger Traction current Integrated range of services transport (Europe)2 1 Within Germany as well as cross border traffic; 2 In UK with Arriva-affiliate ‘CrossCountry’ also long-distance passenger transport; 3 Business unit is assigned to the Rail Technology and Services division 4 DB has about 295,000 employees around the world, of which more than 190,000 are based in Germany Employees by region Employees by business unit 100% ~ 284,319 full time equivalent 100% ~ 284,319 full time equivalent Europe excluding G. 27% Other activities North- Germany Asia America 65% 5% DB Bahn Long Distance: 5.6% DB Services 3% DB Bahn Regional: 13.1% DB Arriva: 13.4% Remaining international locations 1% DB Netze Track: 14.5% DB Netze Stations: 1.7% DB Schenker Rail: 11.4% DB Netze Energy: 0.6% DB Schenker Logistics: 21.9% As of December 31, 2011; Total employee number as of December 2011 5 Passenger Transport DB is the second biggest provider in the European passenger transport market 2.72.7 DB Bahn Long Distance DB Bahn Regional billionbillion passengerspassengers perper yearyear inin trainstrains andand busesbuses 26,00026,000 passengerpassenger trainstrains perper dayday OnceOnce aroundaround thethe worldworld –– the the distancedistance traveledtraveled by by every every ICEICE traintrain per per monthmonth 99 DB Arriva DB Bahn Sales1 neighboringneighboring countries countries can can bebe reached reached directly directly via via DBDB As of December 31, 2011; Figures on the left side are rounded and exclude Arriva; 1 DB Bahn Sales is a service center within the passenger transport division 6 Current trends: Long-distance passenger and regional rail transport post gains – bus transport declines due to structural reasons Long-distance rail transport Regional/ urban rail transport Bus transport in millions of pkm in millions of pkm1 in millions of pkm1,2 Declining number of school children in Germany!

  • The Connected Train
    ascent Thought leadership from Atos white paper The Connected Train Your business technologists. Powering progress All around the world Atos is bringing connectivity to places where it has never been envisaged, delivering benefit to both business and user. We make sure that people have access to the right information no matter what their activity or context. Global rail is a major research area led by our experience in the UK where we have significant heritage and ‘on the ground’ vision. With travelers, operators and nation states demanding high bandwidth to improve passenger experience and drive business efficiencies we are defining a new economic and technical model that gives passengers free WiFi without the rail industry carrying operational cost. Furthermore we are focused on the true business benefit to all parties in the rail industry; revenue and margin drivers are at the core of our proposition. This paper outlines a blueprint for this service called The Connected Train. We examine the nature of the proposition by posing and answering a number of questions.
