A commitment to digitalisation and sustainability
The road towards sustainable transport is through the commitment to a more technological, safer and more resilient railway system. Ineco, as a public engineering company specialising in green mobility and digitalisation, has been joined by different experts who have focused on safety and adaptation to the climate emergency as the main objectives of the railway sector.
Alfonso Lorenzo, ERTMS expert at Ineco, explained the key reasons why the company is behind the deployment of ERTMS in 10,000 km in Europe and 3,550 km in Spain and showed the progress of the European Rail Traffic Management System.
On the other hand, Susana Linares and Cristina Oter García, experts in railway projects and climate change, have shown the company's flooding studies in order to advance in solutions to adverse climate phenomena that provide more safety and minimise the risks of railway infrastructure.
Moreover, innovation has also been present as a technological lever for the planning and maintenance of the railway network. Ineco has presented solutions that apply artificial intelligence to develop predictive models or to improve decision-making thanks to real-time information
