Adif and Adif Alta Velocidad are making progress with various actions to reinforce the availability of electric traction on conventional, metric gauge and high-speed rail networks, to continue to promote sustainable mobility.

Adif has put out to tender a contract to support the commissioning of fixed and mobile traction substations, with a tender budget of 1.3 million euros and a 36-month execution period.

Among other activities, the contract includes the assembly and disassembly of mobile substations, commissioning tests of newly built and refurbished fixed substations, maintenance of mobile substations out of service, and improvements to the maintenance base of mobile substations in Madrid.

Adif Alta Velocidad, for its part, has awarded the contract for the supply of a mobile substation, which will temporarily replace the fixed substations of the high-speed network that are under construction.

The mobile substation will initially be installed at the Hornillos substation, which will undergo refurbishment and expansion. Later on, it will be installed in the substations of the Madrid-Seville high-speed line, which is undergoing a complete upgrade. Electren will be the company in charge of supplying the mobile substation for just over one million euros.

Mobile electric traction installations (both substations and feeder wagons, also known as paralleling units) play a key role in the maintenance of the infrastructure, providing support to fixed installations, both in refurbishments and in situations in which the demand for energy at some point of the railway network requires a rapid supply support intervention.

These actions contribute to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), such as number 9, which promotes the development of reliable, sustainable and quality infrastructures, as well as number 13, which seeks to incorporate measures related to climate change.
