1 How innovation can contribute to achieve interoperable, high performance, cost effective Advance Traffic Management and Control Systems Philippe Citroën, UNIFE Director General ERTMS World Conference 1-3 April 2014, Istanbul

2 What is UNIFE? Full members: Over 80 of the largest and medium-sized companies in the rail supply sector Associated members: 15 National Associations, representing almost 1,000 suppliers of railway equipment + EFRTC and UNISIG UNIFE members have an 80% market share in Europe and supply more than 50% of the worldwide production of rail equipment and services. UNIFE represents the European Rail (Supply) Industry Based in Brussels since 1992 23 permanent employees A trusted partner of the European institutions in all matters related to rail and transport

3 Industry achievements Support the implementation of the ERTMS MoU European Lab Framework Agreement Interoperability Position Paper Re-launch of the ERTMS website New statistics New and Updated Factsheets UNISIG Contribution to the ERTMS specification work Establishment of a new innovation framework Political achievements Communication achievements Technical achievements

4 Political achievements European Lab Framework Agreement  Objective: to enhance the collaboration of the industry to carry out ERTMS interoperability tests for any interested third parties such as operators, IMs, etc.  Collaboration defined in this Framework Agreement was anticipated by the ERTMS MoU (signed in 2012)  Document has been signed by the 8 UNISIG companies (Alstom, AnsaldoSTS, AZD Praha, Bombardier, CAF, MerMec, Siemens, Thales) and in force from February 2014 Interoperability Position Paper  Presents the state of play of Interoperability  Technical Interoperability in figures  Interoperability examples in operation  1 billion cumulative operational train kilometers

5 Communication achievements Total track km: 76100 Total No vehicles: 9462 42 Countries have been implementing ETCS Re-launch of the website: www.ertms.net Up to date ERTMS statistics

6 Technical Achievements - Innovation Horizon2020 SHIFT 2 RAIL IP2 Advanced Traffic Management and Control System FP7 New Generation Train Control Sept. 2013 - Aug. 2016 UNISIG Work-Packages: ERTMS Specification work co-financed by TEN-T and possibly Connecting Europe Facility 20122015 20132022

7 Next Generation Train Control systems Page 7 NGTCShift2Rail Scope: ETCS/CBTC investigation of operational and functional consistencies & differences ETCS/CBTC technical coherence Common Message Structure for Urban and Mainline Covering technical solutions such as moving block principles, IP based Radio Communication and Satellite positioning Light-house project for SHIFT 2 RAIL

8 SHIFT²RAIL 14 March 2014: Political approval by the European Transport Council of a legislative regulation called SHIFT 2 RAIL to launch an ambitious new European Research & Innovation Programme that aims to:  Increase the competitiveness of the EU rail industry to help it retain world leadership  increase the attractiveness of rail transport. A public-private Joint Undertaking under Horizon 2020 starting in 2015 Budget of 920 Million Euros for 2014-2020, including 450 Million from the EU and 470 Million from the Industry After 3 years of intense work by the rail sector for the technical preparatory phase (coordinated by UNIFE) A historical decision for the rail sector all over Europe 8

9 The 25 Founders and overall 115+ promoters 9

10 More, Better, Cheaper! 3 major challenges CAPACITY (to cope with growing EU demand) Up to 100% increase in capacity RELIABILITY (to better satisfy users) Up to 50% increase of reliability LIFE CYCLE COSTS (for more competitiveness) Up to 50% of reduction of Life Cycle Costs Impacting all segments of the rail market! Improving mobility and making daily life easier for millions of European passengers and rail freight actors! 10

11 Deliver R&D results to the market with a system approach 1.Development of prototypes in labs with the “Technology Demonstrators” (TDs) 2.Integration/demonstration of the TDs through “Integrated Technology Demonstrators” (ITDs) 2.and virtual validation at system level through “System Platform Demonstrations” (SPDs) developed for each targeted market segment: High Speed/Mainline Regional Urban/Metro & Suburban Freight 3.Implementation of the successful technology break-through with the industrialisation commitment of the Founders the involvement of the entire rail sector & supply chain actors the key role of the European Railway Agency (ERA) the European Commission in the commitment to create a Single European Railway Area 11

12 Innovation Programme 2 – ADVANCED TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT AND CONTROL SYSTEMS 12 ADVANCED TRAFFIC MANAGEME NT AND CONTROL SYSTEMS Capacity and Efficiency Surge Smart Procurement & Testing Dependable Safe Signalling System STAKE AT EU LEVEL : Maintaining the dominance of ERTMS as a solution for railway signalling and control systems across the world, while extending synergies and interoperability with the urban and mass transit railway sectors and speeding up the time to market. CHALLENGE: Develop a new generation of signalling and control systems, building on current ERTMS, to enable intelligent traffic management with automatically driven trains and optimise capacity, reliability and minimise Life Cycle Costs. for improvement of mainline and urban rail systems capacity and resilience

13 Conclusions 13 Conclusion The current innovations are aiming to fulfill the vision described in the Transport White Paper; Innovations will follow the specification improvements identified in the ERTMS Memorandum of Understanding (2012); SHIFT2RAIL under Horizon2020 provides the long term research strategy on step change innovation for the European Railway Sector.
