16 sett 2021 anni - (FRANCE) InfraVia Capital Partners has formed Nexrail Lease to supply low-emission locomotives for unelectrified routes

Descrizione:

Private equity infrastructure investor InfraVia Capital Partners has formed Nexrail Lease to supply low-emission locomotives for unelectrified routes. The new leasing company has placed a framework order for up to 50 Vossloh Locomotives DE18 Stage V SmartHybrid locos, and taken over 53 existing locos. The SmartHybrid locomotives are new, universal, four-axle mid-cab locomotives, and feature a 1,800 kW and fuel-efficient diesel engine. The engine has a stage V emission standard, with a reduced ecological footprint. It also has an additional traction battery of 144 kW, enabling up to one hour of emission-free operation. This should lead to fuel savings of 20 to 50 percent.
