AERRL & partners have launched the first phase of a study to identify and promote technologies to cut the climate impact of existing diesel-powered rail fleets in the near future. Although rail is already by far the most sustainable mode of land transport, this initiative aims to help rail transport on non-electrified lines transition to low-carbon technologies that provide even greener passenger and freight transport.

The European rail rolling stock lessors highlight the weaknesses of the draft CCS TSI 2022 revision and urge the EU to amend its draft to avoid compromising competition in the rail freight market, threats to improved safety and accelerated obsolescence of existing modern rolling stock.

Leading rolling stock lessors join forces with newly established Association of European Rail Rolling Stock Lessors to promote increased open access to railway infrastructure.
