COMPREHENSIVE MODELLING OF THE COST EFFECTIVNESS OF RAILWAY LINE ELECTRIFICATION

Abstract

Subject of this paper is the mathematical model estimating the Economical threshold between usage of combustion engine traction and electrical traction for new and modernized railway passenger communication lines. Currently available models do not coincide with the whole complexity of the problem. The proposed model was implemented into Matlab and then validated on “Pomorska Kolej Metropolitalna” investment time-frame and its cost of infrastructure, type of Diesel Multiple Units (DMU) and track geometry. The vehicles maintenance levels are taken into consideration as well. Usage of the Energy Storage Systems is considered. The final result of this analysis is threshold of economic efficiency in analyzed period of 30 years for traffic flow expressed in value of passenger per hour in rush hours.
