Zeleros, the European company based in Valencia (Spain) that develops a scalable hyperloop system, has announced the support of three key players that will accelerate the development of its pioneering transport system to travel at 1000 km / h and 0 direct emissions: ACCIONA, CAF and EIT InnoEnergy.

ACCIONA, a leading global company in the development of sustainable infrastructures, leads this new round of investment by the Valencian company, contributing its extensive experience and technical knowledge in the construction of high-speed transport lines, having carried out projects of this type in Spain, Italy or even Norway, where it is currently building the longest railway tunnels in the Nordic countries as part of the Follo Line project. “This initiative is aligned with the concept of sustainable mobility that we defend at ACCIONA and for this reason we have decided to support it. I believe that our know-how, together with our extensive experience of the company in rail transport, will bring great added value to this project”, said Telmo Pérez Luaces, Innovation Director of ACCIONA’s Infrastructure division.

The CAF Group is one of the international benchmarks in the design and implementation of comprehensive mobility systems and transit solutions. With a history of more than 100 years, it has developed important projects in numerous countries on the five continents. Leire Aguirre, working at the Corporate Development and New Businesses area of the CAF Group, expressed: “As experts in rolling stock, from CAF we will contribute all our experience to the design of a robust capsule that will reduce infrastructure costs and guarantee a safe and efficient operation”.

EIT InnoEnergy, leading engine for sustainable energy and promoter of projects such as the European Battery Alliance, in this case will support Zeleros will support Zeleros in realising the hyperloop in Europe. Josep Miquel Torregrosa, EIT InnoEnergy Iberia Business Creation Director, highlights: “At Innoenergy we firmly believe in the potential of Zeleros technology to connect the world in a matter of minutes and in a sustainable way, and we will support the creation of a robust ecosystem at European level.”

The three partners provide knowledge in key areas in the development of hyperloop: infrastructure, vehicle, and the industrial development framework at European level. Thus, they join the team of more than 180 professionals and 50 organizations making the creation of Zeleros’ hyperloop system a reality.

David Pistoni, CEO and Co-founder of Zeleros, highlights: “For Zeleros it is an honor to have industrial partners at the level of ACCIONA, CAF and EIT InnoEnergy to make this ambitious project a reality, with which we want to expand the limits of mobility as we know it, making it faster and more sustainable. We continue to make steady progress to achieve this. “

Zeleros Hyperloop for cargo transport in ports

Unread post by latestnews »

Zeleros begins construction in Sagunto to demonstrate its hyperloop technology for ports


Valencia, Spain. 5th July, 2022. Zeleros Press release
  • Zeleros lays the first stone of the test track for the SELF-Booster, a pilot project that will demonstrate Zeleros’ hyperloop technology and its application to automated and fully electric container handling.
  • The project will become fully operational by end 2022 and is set to accelerate Zeleros’ hyperloop development, while launching a new product, SELF, that is aligned with the growing needs to optimize and decarbonize freight logistics in ports and hinterlands.
[...]

ZELEROS, the European company building the scalable hyperloop, has laid today the first stone of the SELF-Booster, a pilot project conceived to both demonstrate in pre-commercial conditions one of Zeleros’ relevant technologies for hyperloop -the linear motor- and to propose an autonomous fully-electric system to optimize the flow of containers within ports: the SELF system.

Zeleros, the European pioneer in the hyperloop arena, has raised strong public and private industrial support to accelerate the development of the key technologies that will make hyperloop a reality to connect cities at 1000km/h with zero direct emissions.

This system will be demonstrated in pre-commercial conditions at the SELF-Booster pilot project, which will become fully operational by 2022. It will consist of a test track that will automatically move through a fully electric linear motor a vehicle from 0 up to 120 km/h and back to stop in 100 meters.

At 120 km/h it is too slow to run overnight 1,000 km so it cannot subsidise daytime fares and remove planes.

Be better if China, Japan and America developed the Sydney/Melbourne overnight container maglev to international standard.

ITP Aero partners up with Zeleros to accelerate hyperloop propulsion

Zeleros Press Release: Valencia. September 7, 2022
ITP Aero has partnered with Zeleros to help develop a zero-emission propulsion system for hyperloop, a new means of transport consisting of capsules levitating at high speeds inside a network of low-pressure tubes.

Zeleros is a Spanish deep-tech company developing the European scalable hyperloop for intercity transportation of passengers and goods, traveling at a ground level and unprecedented speeds with zero direct emissions. Zeleros leads the design and build of hyperloop vehicles that reduce infrastructure costs per kilometer and work at aviation pressure levels.

The aerodynamic propulsion system, a core element of Zeleros’ vehicle, is integrated in the vehicle and driven by a fully electric powertrain. This key technology minimizes the need of linear motors along the track, reducing the cost of infrastructure, and facilitating hyperloop’s scalability for global deployment.
ITP Aero is developing new zero-emission propulsion technology by leveraging its knowledge gained through existing ultra-efficient gas turbine developments, and electric/hydrogen powered engine technologies. Exploring new pathways for disruptive mobility with Zeleros forms part of ITP Aero’s sustainability and innovation efforts, aligned with its future aviation decarbonization plans.

Erlantz Cristóbal, Executive Director of Engineering and Technology of ITP Aero, said: “This partnership represents another key milestone in our efforts to lead the way towards sustainable mobility. We are proud to support such an ambitious project like Zeleros’ hyperloop through our technology, in line with our commitment to lead the transition to a net-zero emissions mobility”.

David Pistoni, CEO and Co-founder of Zeleros, highlights: “Zeleros proposal of a propulsion system is unique, both outside and within the hyperloop ecosystem. This key technology differentiator brings advantages in cost and in safety to our hyperloop. We are honored to partner up with such an experienced high skilled company in engines like ITP Aero for this joint development that will further accelerate Zeleros’ sustainable mobility solution”.
