  1. Electrification of Latvian railway network

  2. Electrification of Latvian railway network Operational Programme for the EU Funds Programming Period 2014-2020 «Growth and employment» 6.2. Investment priority: Developing and restoration of comprehensive, quality and interoperable railway systems, and promoting noise reduction measures specific objective 6.2.1.: Provide competitive and environmentally friendly TEN-T railway networkby contributing its safety, quality, and capacity Specific objectiveactivity: 6.2.1.1. «Electrification of Latvian railway network»

  3. Current situation: Electrified 249.8 km of railway lines The currently existing DC 3 kV network covers 4 line sections: • Riga – Skulte; • Riga – Tukums; • Riga – Jelgava; • Riga – Aizkraukle.

  4. Results to be achieved: improving internal and external connections to increase efficiency of railway operation and competitiveness of East – West railway corridor to reduce driving time to reduce traction rolling stock operating costs to improve efficiency of use of infrastructure reduced environmental pollution due to emissions created by diesel fuel. Initial environmental impact assessment concluded that the project will reduce noise generated by electric locomotive engines in comparison to diesel engines, thereby reducing noise levels received in the areas adjacent to the rail corridor.

  5. Electrification of Latvian railway network Outcome indicator of specific objectiveactivity: • Total length ofreconstructed or upgraded railway lines -998 km. Result indicator of specific objectiveactivity: • DecreaseofCO2 emissions in railwaytransportationin comparison with 2012 – 49%. Cohesion fund co-financing: • 346,63 mln.eur (76 % from the specific objective financing) • Indicativebeneficiaries:State Joint-Stock company “Latvian railway”

  6. Electrification of Latvian railway networkFulfilled activities within project framework - I • Initial evaluation has been carried out. Initial total costs of project have been assessed as an amount of 549,2 million EUR. • Environmental impact assessment has been carried out in 2014.   • Sketch project has been designed in 2014. Evaluation of project total costs (I and II phase) reached 1,5 billion EUR. • JASPERS experts carried out repeated analysis of project costs. Evaluation of possible project cost reduction has been evaluated as 10-20%. • SJSC LDz technical experts carried out evaluation of the project volume and railway network routes that should be electrified during the 1st phase. Conceptual support has been given to the 3rd alternative. • Technical solution conditions ofJSC “Pasažieru vilciens” (“Passenger train”) tender on purchase of new rolling stock with 3kV have been taken into account in the 3rd alternative.

  7. Electrification of Latvian railway networkFulfilled activities within project framework - II 7) Meetings with JASPERS expert on the supported evaluation alternatives were organized on October 30th and November 3rd, 2015. 8) During the meeting with JASPERS expert on November 3rd, 2015 it was decided to carry out Multi Criteria Analysis (MCA) of LDz proposed alternatives in order to choose another comparable alternative to the 3rd one. Cost - Benefit Analysis (CBA) will be performed to justify the 3rd alternative as the most feasible one. 9) A more detailed description of LDz proposed alternatives shall be elaborated, emphasizing technical and technological characteristics of alternatives and their impact on the 2nd phase, and sent to JASPERS experts for evaluation until November 23rd, 2015. 10) Terms of Reference shall be developed for elaboration of MCA and CBA and sent to JASPERS experts for evaluation until mid of December 2015. The tender shall be launched until the end of year 2015. 11) Project application with supportive documentation package will be developed and submitted for evaluation after elaboration of MCA and CBA until October 2016.

  9. Electrification of Latvian railway network Alternatives evaluated by SJSC LDz Presented to the representatives of JSC LDz, Ministry of Transport, Ministry of Finance, State Railway Technical Inspectorate, and JSC “Pasažieru vilciens” on October 21st, 2015

  10. Electrification of Latvian railway networkalternative supported by SJSC LDZbased on previously listed alternative evaluation 3rd alternative 2x25kVoverhead system will be constructed in districts Riga-Jelgava, Riga – Tukums, and Riga – Skirotava according to the preliminary design project within the size of the existing overhead system, thus providing operation of 3kV DC electric passenger train traffic in the initial period. Construction of the overhead system will be performed in the full size specified in the preliminary design project in the district Skirotava-Krustpils-Daugavpils: electrified cargo train traffic and dual 3kV DC/25kV AC passenger train traffic is forecasted in this district. New 110/2x25kV traction substation will have lowered power converter capacity and will be equipped with reduced balancing device.

  11. Electrification of Latvian railway networkProject time frame: planned vs actual 2017-2022

  12. Electrification of Latvian railway network Initial project implementation schedule has been prepared using the feasibility study on JSC “Latvian railway” electrification developed by ETC COWI GRE in year 2011, where planned project costs were evaluated as 549.2 million euro. The delay in project implementation schedule occurs due to significant increase of project costs, which reached 1.5 billion euro according to the project costs evaluation made within preliminary design project development in December, 2014. The Ministry of Transport has requested JSC “Latvian railway” to make a conceptual decision on the further implementation of the project, cost and implementation volumes, and electrified railway network route directions, as well as to organize the necessary consultations with Jaspers experts on selection of a relevant solution and on project application development. SJSC “Latvian railway” organizes monthly meetings on project monitoring, thus contributing into information exchange on project progress and mutual synergy of transport infrastructure projects. Representatives of the Ministry of Transport and JSC “Pasažieru vilciens” also participate in these meetings.
