Low environmental impact of the Metrail Hybrid

• Metrail is quiet and energy efficient - especially with the optional addition of solar panels.
• The multiple fuel Wankel rotary engine and FN generator used on the Metrail system has far lower emissions than the “Euro IV” standard.
It should be noted that Euro emission standards generally relate to cars carrying up to 4 passengers whereas a Metrail carriage carries in excess of 90 passengers. Therefore the proportional emission per passenger is far lower than the “Euro IV” standard.
The graph (right) shows the distinct advantage of the self-powered Metrail system over conventional grid-powered systems. Emission of prime pollutants is a fraction of conventional rail.
