  5. MERLIN • Project objectives • To investigate and demonstrate the viability of an integrated management system to achieve a more sustainable and optimised energy usage in European Mainline Railway systems • Where MERLIN‘s results are implemented it expected an important reduction of the energy consumption by 10% • Project benefits • MERLIN will contribute to the EU‘s aim of a more sustainable rail system and a reduction in CO2 via a more efficient use of energy resources • Project outputs • Proposals for Technical Recommendations (UIC/UNIFE TecRec) • Future Business models & recommendations (smart energy management, cost saving) • Optimised solutions for current and future business models • Numerical models and simulations to demonstrate the architecture developed for the above TecRec

  6. EUREKAEuropean Programme for Market Oriented R&D • EUREKA was established by a Conference of Ministers of 17 countries and Members of the Commission of the European Communities, meeting in Paris on 17 July 1985 • EUREKA brings now together 41 members including Russia and the EU • EUREKA promotes international, market-oriented research and innovation through the support to small and medium-sized enterprises, large industry, universities and research institutes • Through EUREKA, these organisations are introducing new products, processes and services to market, helping make Europe economically strong and socially sound • EUREKA is an organisation with an ambition to become the leading platform for R&D-performing entrepreneurs in Europe and beyond • 1180 finished projects • 1090 running projects • 613 Eurostars projects
