Abstract

This paper describes a new EU co-funded project on metrology for smart energy management is electric railway systems (MyRailS). The project involves 7 national metrology institutes, 3 universities and 6 railway companies. Research focusses on the following topics: i) new calibration facilities for energy meters on-board installed, ii) power quality monitoring systems, iii) accurate estimation of the saved energy by the installation of new reversible substations (RSS) and iv) by the adoption of eco-driving strategies.
