Global Autonomous Train Market Dynamics

Driver: Increased safety operational benefits

Trains with high levels of automation allow for greater control over speed and the creation of efficient traffic control plans. It also lessens the possibility of accidents brought on by human error.Lawsuits arising from accidents brought on by train drivers' carelessness or incapacity are costly. The European Union and the railroad industry fund the public-private cooperation known as Shift2Rail, which aims to give the European rail network a high degree of safety, interoperability, and reliability. An operational safety enhancement tool called Automated Train Operation is utilized to assist in automating train operations. The Grade of Automation (GOA), which goes up to GOA level 4 (where the train is autonomously managed without any people on board), indicates the level of automation. Since it is simpler to guarantee human safety on transit and rapid transit systems, ATO is mostly utilized there. Most systems have a driver installed to reduce the possibility of malfunctions or emergencies. In July 2023, Hitachi Ltd developed the first fully autonomous metro- Skyline in Honolulu, US with automatic train operation (ATO) GoA4 (Grade of Automation) system.

Restraint: Slow growth rate of GDP and inadequate infrastructure spending in developing countries

The autonomous train system requires efficient infrastructure and adequate transportation services. The introduction of such advanced technology is primarily observed in the developed nations such as the U.S., U.K., and Japan. Further, the developing economies including India, Brazil, and South Africa are also planning to deploy the autonomous train system. However, due to the high cost involved in infrastructure development and land acquisition, the implementation of autonomous train transportation is at a slow pace in developing countries. The smart public transportation system requires a robust infrastructure. In developing countries such as India, Brazil, and South Africa, infrastructure is still in a very nascent stage. It requires prominent efforts for the adoption of innovative technologies to suit the existing railway networks. The market for autonomous trains would expand slowly overall in developing nations . As number of developing nations continue to lack the funding necessary to upgrade their rail systems. A few nations with underdeveloped rail systems include Uganda, Nigeria, Albania, Uruguay, and Colombia. Investing in railway infrastructure becomes more important for nations without robust railway networks than digitalizing existing infrastructure. The implementation of modern digital technology requires a robust rail and communication infrastructure. Specific digital technologies, including passenger analytics and traffic management, are only effective when used at a specific size. It is unlikely that many developing nations with weak communication and rail systems will implement autonomous train technologies very soon.

 

Opportunity: Transforming mining logistics with autonomous trains

Mining firms, particularly those in the Americas, Australia, and Europe, consider Autonomous Haulage Systems (AHS) as a more cost-effective, dependable, and safe alternative for operating mines due to the high labor expenses and potential hazards associated with the terrain. Furthermore, autonomous haulage systems can improve productivity and efficiency while monitoring sustainability and safety. Bombardier’s (Canada) INTERFLO system is the optimal choice for both industrial automated haulage systems and heavy haulage lines. It provides maximum rail capacity with the least amount of wayside space.In July 2023, Hexagon AB (Sweden), and Mineral Resources (MinRes) (Australia) jointly ventured to provide an autonomous haulage solution for a fleet of 120 fully autonomous road trains in Australia, to transform safety, productivity and sustainability in the region. Thus, autonomous trains will remove the risk of driver fatigue, lower operating costs and reduce fuel use and emissions.

Challenge: Inability of DTO systems to carry out required protection functions during emergency situations and lack of human intervention

Emergency situations in urban rail transit systems can disrupt normal operations of the railway; these situations must be dealt with immediately. Most of these emergency situations are caused by human error. Though automated metro systems have no drivers, and some work of dispatchers is carried out by DTO systems, the emergency management still heavily depends on traffic dispatchers. According to the Modular Urban Guided Rail System (MODURBAN) statement, the detection and management of hazardous situations should involve traffic dispatchers, even for autonomous or driverless trains with the highest GOA. Equipment failure, passenger behavior, social disasters, etc., may often cause emergency situations in running trains. In such scenarios, DTO systems may not be able to carry out automated protection functions. Thus, systems used in autonomous or driverless trains should be failure proof so that these systems can perform their required functions in emergency situations as well. The presence of drivers in trains results in their continuous interaction with passengers in the form of announcements, guidelines, and interpretation of various environmental conditions. However, in the absence of drivers, the link between passengers and the metro system is lost. In autonomous or driverless trains, there is no driver to detect and troubleshoot small system failures or pass the information to a control center about the system failure or current situation in the train.

The study involved four major activities in estimating the current market size of the autonomous train market. Exhaustive secondary research was done to collect information on the market, the peer market, and the parent market. The next step was to validate these findings, assumptions, and sizing with the industry experts across value chains through primary research. The top-down and bottom-up approaches were employed to estimate the complete market size. Thereafter, market breakdown and data triangulation processes were used to estimate the market size of segments and subsegments.

Secondary Research

In the secondary research process, various secondary sources such as company annual reports/presentations, press releases, industry association publications such as The European Rail Industry (UNIFE), International Union of Railways, Federal Railroad Administration, Association of American Railroads, International Association of Railway Operation Research etc., railway magazine articles, directories, technical handbooks, world economic outlook, trade websites, technical articles, and databases (Marklines, Factiva etc.) have been used to identify and collect for an extensive commercial study of the global autonomous train market.

Primary Research

Extensive primary research has been conducted after acquiring an understanding of this market scenario through secondary research. Several primary interviews have been conducted with market experts from the demand- and supply-side OEMs (in terms of component supply, country-level government associations, and trade associations) and component manufacturers across major regions, namely, Asia Pacific, Europe, North America, Middle East & Africa and Rest of the World. Approximately 30% and 70% of primary interviews have been conducted from the demand and supply side, respectively. Primary data has been collected through questionnaires, emails, LinkedIn, and telephonic interviews. In the canvassing of primaries, we have strived to cover various departments within organizations, such as sales, operations, and administration, to provide a holistic viewpoint in our report.

After interacting with industry experts, we conducted brief sessions with highly experienced independent consultants to reinforce the findings from our primaries. This, along with the in-house subject matter experts’ opinions, has led us to the findings as described in the remainder of this report. Following is the breakdown of primary respondents.
