ETAP & HyperloopTT partner on Sustainable Energy Systems
ETAP will use green technologies for HyperloopTT Systems, including solar panels and energy storage systems and collaborate with HyperloopTT to design & operate hyperloop systems, including prototypes & commercial sites in UAE & USA.
IRVINE, Calif. – March 1, 2021 – ETAP, the leading provider of intelligent, model-driven power systems solutions and Hyperloop Transportation Technologies (HyperloopTT) announced a collaboration to deliver end-to-end lifecycle digitalization, sustainability, and resiliency for Hyperloop ultra-fast transportation system.
ETAP will establish a comprehensive digital twin of the HyperloopTT electrical system using a model-centric unified engineering approach on its Design & Operate platform. The engineering teams will collaborate on the first commercial HyperloopTT system, starting from conceptual design, detailed engineering to substation control & monitoring and asset performance. Additionally, ETAP will support HyperloopTT during procurement and construction as well as bridging the gap between design and operation phases.
ETAP is unparalleled in complex power systems,” states Andres De Leon, CEO of HyperloopTT.“ Adding their expertise to our own will ensure HyperloopTT systems are more efficient and sustainable than any high-speed transportation system currently on the market.”
“HyperloopTT represents the immediate future of sustainable ultra-rapid transportation,” said ETAP CEO, Dr. Farrokh Shokooh. “Being part of the design & delivery of a new style of transportation integrated with solar & energy storage demonstrates our shared commitment towards carbon neutrality and innovation, making this collaboration truly ideal.”
