Energy Standards Committee
The Energy Standards Committee (ENE SC) enables the industry to develop standards for the electrified railway. Our main focus is to revise the standard for interfaces to electric trains and to develop guidance for the safe operation of the electrified railway.
"We want to help users apply standards more effectively, so that the economic and wider benefits of standardisation are achieved. Industry is developing different solutions for electrification and decarbonisation, and we will support this through suitable standards."
