Abstract:

The goal of this project was to develop a tool to aid railroads and other stakeholders assess and approach the decarbonization of freight rail operations by identifying new, viable low-carbon energy storage and conversion systems for future locomotive systems and how they should be deployed on the existing US freight rail network.

This record also contains four supplemental briefs from the series "NUFRIEND Insights." These are: Energy Technologies - Biodiesel vs E-Fuel; Ranges of Battery Electric Locomotives (BELS); Varying Technology Deployments; and, Optimization Objectives - Cost vs Emissions.
