1 Symposium Competition & Regulation in the Rail Sector Deutsche Bahn AG Herald Ruijters, Director European Commission, DG MOVE Berlin, 25 January 2018 Mobility and Transport

2 The trans-european transport network Support implementation of Transport White Paper through new infrastructure policy including: Objective methodology led to define a core and a comprehensive network Tobeachievedbythedeadlinesof2030and2050 Including ambitious standards for all infrastructures And securing a synchronised implementation with the help of Corridors and European Coordinators 1

3 Requirements Core network Road: express roads or motorways, safe and secure parking areas, alternative clean fuels Rail: ERTMS, electrification, European track gauge Rail freight lines: 22.5 t axle load, 740 m train length, 100 km/h line speed Alternative clean fuels for ports, inland ports and airports Telematic applications, new technologies and innovation 2

4 Implementation tools Coordinators and Core Network Corridors Synchronise investments in order to optimise network benefits Multimodal: road, rail, maritime, air and IWW where possible Involving at least 4 Member States European Coordinators for 9 core network corridors and forertmsandmotorwaysofthesea Work Plans 3

7 EU rail investments key figures CEF funding for rail calls: 15,646,730,886 blending call: 719,448,867 total: 16,366,179,752 ERTMS and other rail funding Total ERTMS funding: 1,140,283,106 Other rail funding: 15,255,869,646 total: 16,366,179,752 7

8 State of play CEF fundinggermany German portfolio is composed of 89 projects selected under the and 2017 blending 1st cut-off calls. German beneficiaries receive 2.2 billion of CEF Transport funding, while the total investment is 6.6 billion (between 2014 and 2020). Most of the projects will end between 2019 and ,743.6 million of CEF funding for a total of 31 German rail projects 8

9 Key rail projectsin Germany I Upgrade and new build of Stuttgart-Wendlingen line, including Stuttgart 21 (2014-DE-TM-0163-W) Start date: January 2014 End date: December 2019 Estimated total cost of the action: 1,981,385,584 Maximum EU contribution: 594,415,675 Percentage of EU support: 30% This Action is part of the Global Project focused on upgrading the Stuttgart rail node (part of Rhine-Danube core network corridor). With converting this railway node rail services in long-distance and regional transport can be significantly expanded and travel times reduced, both on the axis Paris, Strasbourg, Stuttgart, Vienna and Bratislava and within the metropolitan region. 9

10 Key rail projects in Germany II Upgraded line/new-build line (ABS/NBS) Karlsruhe-Basel with partial upgrade measures on the existing line (2014-DE-TM-0094-M) Start date: January 2014 End date: December 2019 Estimated total cost of the action: 828,614,563 Maximum EU contribution: 338,532, Percentage of EU support: 40.51% The Karlsruhe-Basel project includes the four-track upgrade of the already existing 2 track line 4,000 (Rheintalbahn). With the two new tracks mainly designed for high speed traffic, a travel time reduction of 31 minutes will be achieved for high speed passenger trains. The two new tracks will be designed for a speed of 250 km/h and mainly be routed parallel to the existing tracks. 10

11 Key rail projects in Germany III German rail access route to the Fehmarn Belt Fixed Link: Lübeck Fehmarn section (2014-DE-TM-0224-S) Start date: January 2014 End date: December 2019 Estimated total cost of the action: 68,447,500 Maximum EU contribution: 34,223,750 Percentage of EU support: 50% The Action will establish the essential prerequisites for constructing the German hinterland rail connection to the Fehmarn Belt Fixed Link (planning consent, positive planning approval decision and public call for tenders for work contracts). 11

12 Key rail projects in Germany IV ERTMS Deployment on the German part of the Rhine-Alpine Core Network Corridor (2014-DE-TM-0057-W) Start date: January 2014 End date: December 2020 Estimated total cost of the action: 109,230,948 Maximum EU contribution: 53,720, Percentage of EU support: 40/50% The Action covers the preparatory phase and the trackside deployment of ERTMS Level 1 and Level 2, on sections of the Rhine-Alpine Core Network Corridor between Oberhausen and the Swiss border. Completion of the Action will contribute to the deployment of ERTMS on the German section of the Rhine Alpine Core Network Corridor and it will improve the cross-border operation with CH. 12

13 Key rail projects in Germany V Exemplary blending call project ERTMS-DE6400: Interoperable international freight traffic along three TEN-T corridors across Belgium and the Netherlands (2017-DE-TM-0011-W) Start date: January 2019 (indicative) End date: December 2023 (indicative) Estimated total cost of the action: 12,132,000 Maximum EU contribution: 6,066,000 Percentage of EU support: 50% The aim of the Action is to deploy ERTMS B3 equipment on existing vehicles already in operation. There are currently 48 existing locomotives of type DE6400, which will be retrofitted with the latest ERTMS baseline version B3. The fleet under DB Cargo is operating today along three core network corridors, Rhine - Alpine, North Sea Baltic, North Sea Mediterranean, and will enhance the movements of freight, reduce costs and boost the sustainability of European 13 transport.
