Industrial Locomotive Inventory Analysis

Research output: NLRPresentation

Abstract

Due to their captive and local operations, industrial locomotives present a unique potential to reduce energy consumption and associated costs through application of advanced locomotive technologies. However, until now, there has been no data source for the number, size (hp), usage, and energy consumption of these locomotives, which limits the ability to design and implement a research, development, and deployment strategy. This research addresses this gap by developing the first national inventory of locomotives in industrial use and provides a tool to explore the energy and emissions associated with this transportation segment.
