What Are The Current Leading Growth Drivers For Electric Locomotives Market?
The growth of the electric locomotives market is being fueled by a rising preference for clean, energy-efficient modes of transport. As per the UK Department of Transport, electric locomotives are noted for their highly efficient electric motors, often operating at roughly 90% efficiency due to technological advances such as regenerative braking, which recaptures energy during braking. This results in 20%–35% less carbon emissions per passenger mile in comparison to diesel-powered locomotives, thereby significantly reducing overall carbon emissions. With environmental concerns fuelling the desire for less polluting, energy-efficient transport systems, the electric locomotives market is witnessing increased demand.
