BOOSTING CUSTOMER COMPETITIVENESS
ENERGY SAVINGS AND POWER SUPPLY OPTIMIZATION
Storing energy while braking Using stored energy during acceleration
� Energy savings up to 30% for light rail systems
� Boost to the vehicle’s speed when line current or engine power are limited
� Optimization of power supply
� Reduced infrastructure investment
� Catenary-free operation for short distances and as a part of the PRIMOVEsolution also for longer distances
ENERGY STORAGE DEVICE ENERGY STORAGE DEVICE
SUSTAINABLE COMMUTING FOR GREENER CITIES
CATENARY-FREE OPERATION
� Technology based on inductive power principle which enables contact free operation
� Operation possible under any weather condition
� No risk of power loss due to contact break
� No danger of electric hazard as all electric devices are fully isolated
THE FUTURE OF E-MOBILITY
PRIMOVE TECHNOLOGY CAN BE APPLIED TO ALL TYPES OF VEHICLES
� Unlimited mobility
– Continuous contactless, inductive energy transfer combined with efficient on-board energy storage systems
� No recharging hassles
– Both dynamic and static charging possible
� For all types of vehicles
– The same infrastructure, which is compatible at high efficiency levels from 3 to 1,000 kW
� Zero emissions and low maintenance
– No local emissions; no wear on parts and components due to contactless power transfer
� Safe, invisible and tamper-proof
– Hidden underground; reliable in adverse weather and ground conditions; energy transfer only active when induction segment is completely covered by the vehicle
