Title: Eco-Industrial Design for Cityval, Siemens' New AGT
Abstract: Automation for driverless systems is a clear market trend. Actual achievements of full automation transportation systems make it possible to reduce dwell time, adapt traffic to the demand and eliminate human errors and thus increase line capacity and network efficiency and safety. Today these requirements of advanced passenger service and more efficient transportation means converge into a more global approach with the objective to highlight over-all benefits in term of sustainable development and reduction of carbon emission and pollution. Cityval, Siemens newly developed rubber tired AGT, is following very strict roads in the area of Eco-Industrial Design and sustainable development. This paper is aimed at presenting these new features of our transportation solutions while focusing in three main area: (1) Eco-Industrial Design (2) Energy efficiency (3) Modularity and operation flexibility
