For enlarging the usability of electric locomotives an integration of the Diesel Power Module (DPM) into a customer locomotive was performed. The described paper represents the introduction into hybridization of E-locomotives for enlarging the existing product platform. STEYR MOTORS and SIEMENS MOBILITY therefore developed a complete aggregate with high performance density considering existing interfaces and normative requirements. As producer of high performance diesel engines for special applications STEYR MOTORS achieved high competence in delivering sub systems like the Diesel Power Module for rail applications.
