Over the last year, Wabtec took a bold step toward a low-to-zero-emission locomotive future with the world’s first heavy-haul 100-percent battery-electric locomotive – called FLXdrive™. The locomotive, powered by approximately 20, 000 battery cells, was tested in revenue operation across more than 13, 320 miles of hilly terrain in San Joaquin Valley, California.
Operating in a consist between two other locomotives and with a battery capacity of 2. 4 megawatt hours, FLXdrive successfully reduced overall fuel consumption by more than 11 percent — the equivalent to over 6, 200 gallons of diesel fuel saved and approximately 69 tons of CO2 emissions reduced.
The next version of FLXdrive is currently in development and expected to be ready for market in 2023. With a battery capacity of more than 7 megawatt hours, we anticipate further reducing fuel consumption and emissions by up to 30 percent.
