ESL undertake electrification design services for a wide range of clients within the rail industry. Our experience covers all aspects of electrification infrastructure, including its installation, commissioning, maintenance and de-commissioning.
Our works include the enhancement and renewal of existing, sometimes life expired systems, as well as the design and development of new build electrification infrastructure.
Designing equipment that can be safely and efficiently constructed is a priority and input from our installation teams gives us the insight to achieve this effectively.
We recognise the importance of driving sustainability and limiting the environmental impact of our industry. This starts with the design process. The application of value engineering techniques enables us to accomplish this while being able to demonstrate that value for money is being achieved.
