Rail transport

Electrical storage solutions for trains, railcars and shunting locomotives
In the course of the transport transition, rail transport is becoming increasingly important – both in passenger and freight transport. Flexible, high-performance energy storage solutions are particularly in demand on non-electrified track sections, in stations or in hybrid operation.

Stercom develops robust high-voltage batteries, onboard charging solutions and hybrid systems that can be seamlessly integrated into existing drive concepts. Our systems provide greater range, efficiency and flexibility – even under extreme operating conditions.

Reduction of CO₂ emissions: especially on non-electrified lines
More energy efficiency: use of recuperation and optimised power supply
Compact design: integration into existing vehicle architecture
Long cycle life: Maintenance-free systems with >1 million charging cycles (for ultracaps)
Safe & standard-compliant: Meets railway standards (e.g. EN 50155, IEC 62928)

The conversion to hybrid or all-electric systems is actively promoted in Germany and the EU:

Schienenbonus (DE): Funding programme for alternative drives in the rail sector
Shift2Rail / CEF Transport: EU funding for innovation in rail transport
State funding: e.g. for demonstrator projects or pre-series developments
