Battery Train Deployment Report Commissioned
The title of this post, is the same as that of this article on Railway Gazette.
This is the first paragraph.
The Rail Safety & Standards Board has commissioned consultancy WSP to produce evidence-based recommendations for optimising and standardising the adoption of battery-powered trains.
Note.
- The train shown in the picture in the article is a Stadler FLIRT Akku.
- WSP are a well-respected Canadian engineering consultancy.
To commission a development report sounds to be a sensible act.
WSP Lends Hand On Morocco-UK Power Link
The title of this post, is the same as that of this article on renews.biz.
These introductory paragraphs detail WSP’s role.
Xlinks has appointed engineering consultancy WSP to provide technical advisory services for the tendering process for converter stations for its Morocco-UK power link.
WSP will support the procurement process for four HVDC converter stations in the UK and also Morocco, as well as UK grid connection works, connection to the generation assets in Morocco, and an interface between the converter stations and the HVDC cable systems in the UK and Morocco.
When I wrote my first post on this project in September 2021, which was entitled Moroccan Solar-Plus-Wind To Be Linked To GB In ‘Ground-Breaking’ Xlinks Project, I was a bit sceptical that this project would be completed.
With the appointment of WSP, I am now very much happier that this project will be carried through to a successful conclusion.
