Europe Hybrid and Battery-Powered Train Market

The Europe hybrid and battery-powered train market is projected to reach US$ 7,176.71 million by 2028, growing at a CAGR of 8.6% from 2023 to 2028. 

The increasing demand for energy-efficient transportation is driving the hybrid and battery-powered train market. Governments of various European countries are taking initiatives to reduce carbon emissions. The European Union (EU) has adopted the United Nations (UN) 2030 agenda for sustainable development and the Paris Agreement on climate change. Furthermore, the European Green Deal is a part of the European Commission's strategy to implement the UN 2030 agenda and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). EU is implementing these plans and policies to achieve climate neutrality by 2050. Through this Green Deal, the European Commission is aiming to reduce transport emissions by 90% by 2050. To achieve the goal of reducing carbon emissions, governments of various European countries are adopting fuel-efficient trains, driving the Europe hybrid and battery-powered train market growth.

The pantograph charging system is located on the roof of the train; it helps collect the electricity needed to power the train. Pantographs make direct contact with the overhead power lines in order to obtain electricity. The system provides fast charging with a wide range of power levels, thus, providing an uninterrupted power supply in the train. Pantograph based battery trains from the market players will fuel the segment's growth during the forecast period, promoting the overall Europe hybrid and battery-powered train market growth. 

A hybrid train is an energy-saving system that is a combination of a conventional diesel and electric drive system. The train comprises a generator with a combustion engine, one or more electric motors with corresponding power electronics, and a battery. As the hybrid train helps reduce greenhouse gases and other exhaust gas emissions in the environment, its demand in the market is increasing. In addition, the use of a combustion engine as a generator in the hybrid train can help maximize the working time of a combustion engine, thus, improving the efficiency of the entire system by up to 30%. All the above advantages of hybrid trains are increasing their adoption in the market tremendously. Battery-powered trains are one of the cleanest zero-emission solutions. Adopting these trains will help achieve climate change targets by improving air quality in cities and non-electrified stations. Battery-powered trains will also allow traveling beyond electrified routes, providing a seamless journey and an integrated passenger experience that benefits both operators and the environment. Due to all the above benefits of battery-powered trains, their demand is increasing in the region, pushing Europe hybrid and battery-powered train market players to develop innovative products.
