Arriva Orders ‘Vegetable Oil Hybrid Diesel Trains’ for the Netherlands
.jpg)
Arriva, the leading pan-European passenger transport company, announced that it has signed a contract with train manufacturer Stadler to build 18 of the world's first zero-emission trains for partially electrified orbits.
The total contract value amounts to €170m for trains in the north of the Netherlands.
The Flirtino trains, once partial electrification is finished, can be transformed from Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO) hybrid diesel trains into zero-emissions trains that use partial electrification to charge batteries that keep the trains running on the parts of the tracks without electrification.
The train is the first in the world to combine regenerative technology with an HVO engine that replaces the non-electrified section of the track with an extra large battery.
