Global railway propulsion systems industry overview
The cost-effectiveness of rail freight over other modes of transportation is one of the key factors expected to drive the demand for railway propulsion systems. The emergence of e-commerce has resulted in a considerable increase in the need for logistics and transportation services, which account for a major share of the overall product cost. To reduce the cost of transportation, companies have started preferring fast and cost-effective means of freight transportation. Further, due to the technological advancements in railway propulsion systems, railways have emerged as the most cost-effective option of freight transport. Systematic planning to avoid congestion, rail freight transport proves to be a faster mode than the other modes of transportation. Owing to such benefits, railways has emerged as the most preferred transportation mode for e-commerce logistics, increasing the need for rail freight transportation. This will subsequently drive the growth of the railway propulsion systems market, which according to our analysts will register a CAGR of close to 3% by 2022.
The increasing use of alternative fuel in locomotives is one of the key trends expected to gain traction in the market. The railway industry is focusing on replacing carbon-intensive diesel fuel with alternative fuels like LNG, hydrogen, and bio-diesel. The alternative fuel technologies will further replace fuel on non-electrified routes. As a result, the hydrogen power will further fuel the railway propulsion systems market’s growth in the forthcoming years.
