EU-Rail FutuRe Project – Innovative CCS Solutions for Interoperable Regional Lines
摘要
With the support of EU’s key funding program Horizon Europe, the Europe’s Rail Joint Undertaking (EU-Rail) aims to deliver a high-capacity integrated European railway network by eliminating barriers to interoperability, providing solutions for full integration, and achieving faster uptake and deployment of innovation. In this context, EU-Rail FutuRe project aims at tackling the increasing Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) of European interoperable regional lines by means of providing new innovative solutions to make these lines cost-effective and attractive, while meeting safety standards and improving reliability, availability, and capacity of the railway system. Interoperable regional lines are connected to the mainline railway system as part of the Single European Railway Area (SERA) and characterised by low-density passenger traffic, as well as rail freight services.
