1 | Indian Railways(IR) after completion of the IEEIRS Project, should foster an environment of information sharing between the different divisions in IR, and to personnel beyond electrical engineers. |
2 | Since the project involve building the capacity of an institution, more care is required in designing the implementation arrangements to minimize delays in the startup of a project |
3 | Assist the Ministry of Railways to develop a donor-assistance project involving deployment of other unproven technologies that can be applied to lower the carbon footprint of Indian Railways. |
4 | Sustained and effective engagement by project management personnel is essential in building capacities of public institutions |
Key Action Update History

Upon the completion of demo and pilot installation, quality work in monitoring and reporting results, including cost-benefit analysis, has been undertaken as a priority. For those demos or pilots for which similar efforts have been undertaken elsewhere in the IR (and this includes many of the demos and pilots), an effort has been made for these other sites to be included in the monitoring, reporting, and analysis work, to provide a richer picture for policy makers. In some cases, for project demos/pilots has been initiated for which there are already other sites in the IR
Key Actions:
Assist the Ministry of Railways to develop a donor-assistance project involving deployment of other unproven technologies that can be applied to lower the carbon footprint of Indian Railways.

IRIEEN has been allocated funds for dissemination workshops. Visits to project sites have been organized of supervisors and managers for awareness building on the successful demos (From railways budget). Moreover, CoEs are going to play crucial role on dissemination and replication of the activities in future.
Key Actions:
Sustained and effective engagement by project management personnel is essential in building capacities of public institutions
