Our UK Head of Business Development for Rolling Stock, Graeme Clark took part in the Railway Industry Association thought leadership panel on ‘delivering a lower cost, higher performing, net zero railway by 2050’ and emphasised how we need a 'track and train' whole systems approach to achieve this. This follows the release of the RIA Net Zero railway by 2050 strategy report outlining how by integrating infrastructure and rolling stock planning, through electrification and battery technology, the industry can move towards a decarbonised, affordable and deliverable railway in the UK.

“With more electric vehicles per person than anywhere else in the world, about four out of five vehicles on the road in Norway are EVs, and there’s a robust charging station structure for accommodating them. As we know, that’s largely not true in the U.S.” – Terry Barclay (she/her/hers), chair, SBN Detroit, president and CEO, Inforum In SBND’s recent newsletter, Barclay highlights the advancements in EV adoption in Norway compared to the United States. Norway has achieved a milestone with approximately 80% of vehicles on the road being electric, due to its well-developed charging infrastructure. This contrasts with the current situation in the U.S., where such infrastructure is still developing and may be less prevalent.
