Alongside its programs of continuous line improvements and expansions , STRIDES places increasing importance on sustainable operations . “ We are striving to achieve Net Zero by 2050 ,” Lee continues . “ At a national level , train transport is the most sustainable way to travel . We encourage commuters to convert from private to public transport and it ’ s important for us to play our part in making sure that the service we provide is an excellent one . Customer service and experience must be such that it encourages the modal shift .
“ Over the years , as the government increasingly builds metro lines , we are progressively increasing our share of public transport . That expansion alone plays an important part in moving towards achieving Net Zero . From solar panel installations at depots and stations to improving signaling systems to optimize the use of electricity , we ’ re also exploring how we can better manage our operational spaces . We are also innovating our green communication-based train control ( CBTC ) system , examining how we can control the trains to avoid unnecessary acceleration , for example . If we can save even ten percent of the energy we use , that is still a significant outcome ,” he elaborates . www . alstom . com
