23. 23  Successful Cost-Shared Product Development, Test, & Demonstration  Helped Alstom win a $2.3B contract for up to 1,600 new railcars – split with Kawasaki  NYS manufactured gearbox  Largest order of its type in the free world Propulsion Gearbox for R160 Railcars Alstom Transportation, Hornell, NY

24. 24 Rail Switch & 3 rd Rail Heater Controls Railcomm, Inc., Fairport, NY  Successfully developed and demonstrated 20 units at NYCT  Allows snow/ice melting on an as- needed basis – typically 17 days versus current 166 days annually  Estimated 120,000 MWh annual savings, if widely deployed at MTA  This type of system is now being deployed at NYCT with NYPA funding

25. 25 3 rd Rail Insulator Cleaning Device Mini, LLC, Bethesda, MD  Dirty insulators are leakage paths for stray electrical current to ground resulting in loss of electrical energy  Also exacerbating infrastructure corrosion due to stray currents  Estimated 22,000 MWh annual savings, if widely deployed at MTA  Study completed, building on TRB work, and proceeding toward a NYCT Demonstration

26. 26 Short Line Railroads APU Demonstration

27. 27 Energy Storage for Regenerative Braking Trackside Flywheel Energy Storage Demo at LIRR  2.5 MW Trackside storage; Co-funded by NYPA  Pentadyne flywheel modules  2010 Demonstration at the Malverne Station Trackside Ultra Capacitor Energy Storage - Prototype  1 MW Prototype design, fabrication & factory test  Electrical Power worX Inc. – a small, growing NYS firm  Additional award to study ultracaps for on-car storage Trackside Battery Energy Storage Demo at NYCT  Kawasaki Railcar Co.  3 MW NiMH GigaCell Battery  2010 Demonstration at Rockaway Station
