## Energy

Consumption analysis tools not only allow us to audit the level of efficiency of lines or train units, they also allow anomalies to be detected such as deficiencies in recovery systems, brakes, traction, subsystem overconsumption,...

### Energy consumption

Energy represents between 5% and 10% of the operating cost of a modern railway infrastructure, and the trend, despite being considered the most efficient means of transport, is to continue reducing consumption, trying not only to reduce the impact of the use of energy but also the cost of exploitation.

Monitor energy consumption to increase efficiency and detect anomalies in train units and their subsystems.

### Energy recovery

Most networks implement energy recovery systems. By tracking consumed energy, regenerated energy and burned energy you will be able to set up the best strategy on recovery.

Optimize your energy recovery system by getting data of all circulations and the efficiency of your current recovery system as well as the points where more energy is burnt.

### Systems consumption

Consumption analysis tools not only allow us to audit the level of efficiency of lines or train units, they also allow anomalies to be detected such as deficiencies in recovery systems, motor brakes, traction, subsystem overconsumption such as air conditioners, etc.

Monitor systems consumption to detect anomalies or compare different systems, driving modes, etc.

### Train comparison

Once you receive information from the consumption of all the elements in the train, it’s easy to go one step further and analyze anomalous behavior of certain systems at a certain train. This is very important information for maintenance.

Take into account consumption of the different systems on the train in your maintenance plans to avoid abnormal behaviors and also to learn more about the performance of different providers.
