Assets powered by renewables
Canberra Metro Light Rail has been designed and built to be powered by 100% renewable energy. The project will offset all construction and operating emissions to achieve zero net carbon emissions by designing, building, operating and adapting to climate change impacts and social needs of society, which demonstrates leading best practice. This has been done by using traction power regeneration to limit energy loss through braking and acceleration of the LRV’s, closed loop recycled water for the tram wash and world leading asbestos management hydrovaccing activities.
