Sustainable mobility provider Alstom has decided to implement the GreenSpeed™ connected driver advisory system (DAS) from Cubris on Transport for London’s Elizabeth line rail service.
By integrating new technology with existing operational systems, this system upgrade will offer real-time speed advice to train drivers on the Elizabeth Line. This advice, calculated onboard from trackside data, helps in adhering to the timetable in the most energy-efficient manner and reduces wear and tear on the trains.

"We are pleased to welcome Elizabeth Line to the increasing portfolio of GreenSpeedTM customers. This underlines Cubris’ commitment to the green agenda by providing energy-efficient driving advice thereby optimizing energy consumption and contributing to the overall customer experience.
