Railsponsible Climate Position Paper
Setting the scene
Climate change is becoming a growing concern
Paris Agreement (2015), GCAS, 1.5°C IPCC Report (2018), COP24
Businesses need to transition and drive actively solutions
Transport sector is one of the main sources of GHG emissions
24.7% of global energy related CO2 emissions in 2015
Rail is considered as the greenest mode of transportation
4.2% of global transport CO2 emissions in 2015 (vs. 72.6% for
road,10.9% for aviation and 10.2% for marine)
But the rail industry supply chain has significant climate
impacts
Energy intensive raw materials, infrastructure development,
manufacturing, maintenance/overhaul, as well as end of
life/recycling
Rail industry commitment to reduce its carbon footprint
10
Railway operators, system houses, and organizations within the vast rail
supply chain need to contribute more towards climate change mitigation.
11
Railsponsible Climate Position Paper
Build a climate strategy
Set climate targets
Ambitious Renewable Energy Target
Ambitious Energy Productivity Target
Transparency / Reporting on Climate Change Impacts
Develop Governance, Management & Procurement Processes to support a climate program
12
Proposed commitments for companies working in the sector
Commit to ambitious targets in line with the Paris Agreement and develop corresponding improvement plans
Develop a governance and management structurearound the strategy
Develop products and change or improve raw material input
Focus on the most impactful actions
13
How to build your climate strategy
Alstom has adopted a « Climate and energy transition strategy » along three lines: • placing energy-efficient electrical rail solutions at the heart of its portfolio;• enabling the transition to sustainable mobility solutions;• decarbonizing its operations.
Develop concrete and measurable targets.
Start setting targets for Scope 1&2 emissions and work towards including the more challenging Scope 3 emissions.
Cascade targets tailored to different areas within your business (including procurement)

– Deutsche Bahn
Reduce energy intensity by 10%
in 2020 compared to
2014 - Alstom
GHG Assessment
clause introduced into
all transport and logistics
contracts - SKF
Engage the critical parts of your business
Focus on where you can create impact
Assess your energy and climate impact to get a benchmark
Incorporate climate into procurement and supply chain management
Encourage your suppliers
15
Tips to go forward
Some practical tools for companies starting the climate journey:
• Setting targets: Science Based Targets Initiative• Understanding climate legislation: WMB Climate Policy Tracker• Calculating emissions : GHG Protocol or ADEME Carbon Footprint• Estimating freight emissions: EcoTransIT World

19UIC TARGETS
• Contribute to the UIC “LOW CARBON RAIL
TRANSPORT CHALLENGE”,
• Stimulate MODAL SHIFT TO RAIL in
national and international markets,
• Actively communicate to RAISE
AWARENESS,
• REPORT DATA on one’s company’s
indicators above on a regular basis in
order to promote and demonstrate the
continuous improvements at an
international level.
LOW CARBON RAIL TRANSPORT CHALLENGE
RAILWAY CLIMATE RESPONSIBILITY PLEDGE
• Final ENERGY CONSUMPTION from train
operations:
- 50% by 2030 (1990) and - 60% by 2050
• Average CO2 EMISSIONS from train operations:
- 50% by 2030 (1990) and 75% by 2050
• Railway SHARE OF PASSENGER transport (pkm)
by 2030: + 50% (2010) and +100% by 2050
• Railway SHARE OF FREIGHT land transport
(tkm): equal to road by 2030 and 50% greater
than road by 2050

Almost 90% of the environmental impact in the supply chain is a result of the GHG and air pollutants, which are largely generated by direct suppliers.

Example: new technology

After thermal energy for buildings, diesel for traction is SBB’s biggest producer of CO2 emissions. Three Prima H3 hybrid locomotives have already been in use for test purposes at SBB Cargo in Wildegg and in enclosed areas of the Basel-Kleinhüningen port since mid-2017.
On 25 October following the successful test, SBB Cargo signeda contract procuring another 12 Prima H3 locomotives. This resulted in: Savings of 865,000 litres of Diesel or 2 400 tonnes of
CO2 every year (-50%) Other pollutant emissions reduced by up to 70%. Fewer noise emissions for residents The possibility of emission-free rail traffic in urban areas
or inside production halls

Background
Solution process
IssueNew forms of technology can replace fuels that damage the environment and are often more
energy efficient.
27
Various types of sleepers are installed for the permanent way (wood, steel, concrete). Which is the most environmentally friendly sleeper, when observed throughout its life cycle?
To get to the bottom of the issue, an ecological assessment was commissioned for wooden, steel and concrete sleepers. The results showed that, in most scenarios, theconcrete sleepers are not onlythe most environmentally friendly, but also the most cost efficientthroughout their life cycle.
Depending on the scenario the greenhouse gas emissions produced using the concrete sleepers were 3 to 46% lowerthan when using the wooden sleepers
For concrete and steel sleepers, there is only one scenario observed in which concrete sleepers produce, in comparison, 5% lower greenhouse gas emissions.
SBB • Group • K-SMN-NH
Background
Solution process
IssueResources are limited and therefore need to be
used as efficiently as possible throughout the life cycle. This includes the choice of materials, ease
of repair and the possibility of upgrading and recycling the materials.
Example: resource efficiency and circular economy.
Example: packaging material.
28
Rail fastenings used to be packaged and shipped in disposable frames. This resulted in a huge amount of waste, which needed to be disposed of for a fee. The wood and plastic were only used once.
In consultation with the suppliers, the problem was analysed and a solution using reusable frames was devised. By foregoing disposable methods of transportation, SBB can:
save 5 – 10% CO2 emissions. The financial savings amount to CHF 18,000 CHF per
year for rail fastenings.
Call for tenders: Minimum requirement in the logistics specification: Mandatory use of reusable containers
SBB • Group • K-SMN-NH
Solution process
BackgroundIssue
Packaging material can incur indirect costs. Reusable packaging or another sustainable choice
of material reduces costs and eliminates CO2emissions and waste.
