KEMA and ELBAS (www.elbas.de), partnered on the basis of complementary activities in the field of electrical traction power supply systems, assist transportation properties all over the world in the design, realization, and operation of these systems at the highest level. By performing system and operational studies. By quality surveillance on these systems and their components to validate both the design and its fulfillment. By developing methods and technologies for optimal use of the infrastructure. By designing substations, catenary systems, control centers and automation systems. By consultancy and training. Our approach is straightforward, yet comprehensive.

General

Nowadays, the following trends can be recognized by looking at transportation in general:

• extensive growth of rolling stock
• decreasing headways
• increasing load required from the electrical infrastructure
• appearance of new technologies such as energy management systems, power electronics, and energy storage
• dispatch, train control, and power control from centralized control centers.      

Our co-operation has the spectrum of expertise needed for designing and/or reviewing your electrical traction power supply system. Our consulting groups augment your skills and experience to address these and the myriad of other planning, design, and operation issues related to these systems. Our engineers have the experience to serve your needs, irrespective of:

• power supply or a.c./d.c train feeding systems
