Elektrische Hybridfahrzeuge im Schienenpersonennahverkehr

Electric hybrid vehicles in local rail passenger transport

Battery-electric multiple units have been helping to replace diesel multiple units since December 2023 at the latest, thereby reducing CO₂ emissions from rail transport. This presentation aims to answer the following questions:


•    Why, and why now?
•    What does the powertrain of a battery-electric multiple unit look like?
•    How do the multiple unit, infrastructure and timetable interact?
