Erex differs from any other energy settlement system. This gives
obvious advantages:
Increased competitiveness
Erex increases the competitiveness of the railway. It is the only
system that works truly cross-border, independently from the
countries or train operators involved. Erex is also open-source and
easily adapted to any existing systems. This makes it a crucial
cornerstone in building a single European railway area.
Lower environmental impact
On measured journeys Erex has led to decreased energy consumption
with up to 30 per cent. Thus lessening the environmental impact.
With more and more countries using Erex, the total eco-effect is
considerable.
Lower energy bill
The benefits with Erex are not only environmental, but also
financial. Up to 15 per cent reduced energy consumption means
considerable lowered costs for the whole railway sector. With
rising energy prices, the savings will be even bigger in the
future.
