Platform doors not only enhance passenger safety but also significantly improve energy efficiency in metro stations. As a key element of sustainable urban transportation, platform screen door (PSD) systems reduce climate control costs and provide an eco-friendly operation.
Platform doors minimize air exchange between the station and the outside by closing the gap between the train and the platform. This helps keep cool air inside during summer and warm air inside during winter. Especially in underground stations, temperature control becomes easier and the energy consumption of HVAC systems is reduced.
Up to 20% savings on climate control costs.
Reduces carbon footprint and creates an environmentally friendly public transport environment.
Maintains indoor air quality and increases passenger comfort.
Energy efficiency lowers operating costs and contributes to sustainable urban life.
Platform doors work integrated with smart automation systems, opening only when the train arrives and remaining closed to prevent energy loss. These systems contribute to overall energy management and play a key role in achieving sustainability goals.
Many major cities around the world are making platform doors standard to reduce carbon emissions and increase energy efficiency. This not only protects the environment but also lowers the operating costs of public transport systems.
Platform doors are the key to sustainable transportation in modern cities. With energy savings, passenger comfort, and an eco-friendly approach, they will continue to be an indispensable part of future metro stations.
