SUMMARY:RTSA VIC/TAS PRESENTATION - RAILWAY ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION:Our June Presentation is on Railway Energy Storage System by Ian Cook Power Modelling Specialist from MTM \nAustralia’s first 1500 Volt DC Railway Energy Storage System is being installed in Melbourne. It is being installed by the North East Project Alliance for the Hurstbridge Line Upgrade Project at Diamond Creek. \nIt has been chosen as an opportunity to meet the Project Requirements\, but at a reduced cost to the State. \nEnergy Storage Systems can be used in many ways to improve deficiencies in the Traction Power System and to reduce the energy consumption. On the Project\, it has an element of both. It is to store the excessive regenerative braking energy that has been modelled to be available when the train braking\, and release it back to the train when it departs from the station\, in order to boost the traction acceleration voltage. \nIt is an innovative and sustainable solution for the Melbourne railway network\nIan Cook is a Traction Power Modelling Specialist of Metro Trains Melbourne. Ian has many years of experience working on the Melbourne Traction Power System. He is one of the most senior traction power engineers in Victoria. Ian has been participated in most major projects planning & strategy for Victoria traction power system.\nThis presentation will cover the fundamental and needs of an Energy Storage System for the railway network\, also discussion on the future opportunities and strategies to implementation the Energy Storage System for Melbourne railway network \n  \nRegistration Closes\n07 / 06 / 2018 – 5:30 pm\n\nCost\nRegistration\nEA and RTSA Member Rate: $0.00 ($0.00 excl.

SUMMARY:RTSA VIC/TAS PRESENTATION - INLAND RAIL
DESCRIPTION:Our March Presentation is on Inland Rail presented by Simon Thomas Programme Delivery Director ARTC \nMr Simon Thomas is the Programme Director for the Inland Rail Programme at the Australian Rail Track Corporation (ARTC). In this role Mr Thomas is responsible for leading the project team and overseeing the delivery of the Programme’s construction elements. \nMr Thomas has over 28 years of major infrastructure project experience and has successfully delivered projects on time\, to budget for major contractors and consultants within UK\, Asia\, Middle East & Australia. His previous roles include Project Director of Aurizon’s $904m Wiggins Island Rail Project\, which is one of Australia’s largest rail infrastructure projects linking the new Coal Export Terminal in Gladstone with over 70km of new rail infrastructure. \nDuring his time at Aurizon\, in 2014 Mr Thomas was awarded Project Director High Commendation by the Australian Institute of Project Management for his work on the project. As national leaders in freight rail and the transport and logistics industry\, ARTC are trusted by the future users of Inland Rail to deliver this nationally significant project. \nSimon will provide an update on the progress of Inland Rail\, a project of national significance which completes the spine of Australia’s freight rail network\, linking cities\, farms\, mines and ports with a world class rail system with a focus on the economic benefits that the programme will bring to Australia nationally and specifically to Queensland. \nSpecific regard will be given to engineering\, environmental approvals and construction progress.
