8 July
2021 – Alstom will supply 19
five-car MP141 metros with driver's cab for line 11 of the
Île-de-France Mobilités network operated by RATP2, for a total
value of 132 million euro3. This order, which is 100% funded by
Île-de-France Mobilités, falls within the framework of the MP14
contract signed in March 2015 between RATP (mandated by
Île-de-France Mobilités) and Alstom for the delivery of a maximum
of 217 MP14 trains over 15 years, for a total amount of more than 2
billion euro. This contract is part of the Île-de-France Mobilités
strategy for the modernisation of all rolling stock on the
Île-de-France Mobilités network.
An initial tranche of the MP14 contract included 35 automated
metros for line 14, consisting of eight cars each. A first
conditional tranche for 20 additional automated metros, consisting
of six cars each, was exercised in January 2017 for line 4. A
second option of 20 additional five-car trains (with driver's cabs)
was exercised in February 2018 for line 11.
“With the first MP14 trains entering commercial
service in October 2020 on line 14, Alstom is delighted to have
received an additional order for these innovative trains. The
progressive arrival of MP14 metros on lines 14, 11, and 4 (in that
chronological order) will directly improve the daily lives of
hundreds of thousands of passengers in Paris and the Île-de-France
region. Alstom is delighted with the renewed confidence of its
customers, Île-de-France Mobilités and RATP,” said
Jean-Baptiste Eyméoud, President of Alstom
France.
A state-of-the-art metro, MP14 offers an
unprecedented level of comfort and safety thanks to its interior
layout and seats with a design based on the theme of the alcove,
creating both hospitality and privacy. Vast reception areas offer
accessibility to all passengers, with dedicated areas and
boomerang-shaped seats to improve the passenger flow and the
capacity of the trains. MP14 also has LED lighting efficiently
distributed throughout the entire metro to provide a sense of
security while eliminating darkly shadowed areas. The supports and
steadying points are compliant with safety standards and further
increase comfort inside the train. Warm and cool ventilation helps
to provide temperature balance, whatever the season. MP14 also
provides comprehensive video protection and dynamic passenger
information on board.
A special feature of the MP14 metros for line 11
is that the design of the driver's cab incorporates feedback from
previous generations of cabs. Their design features the latest
developments in ergonomics and has been validated by RATP drivers
and occupational physicians.MP14 is designed to improve passenger
comfort and experience as well as reconcile performance, energy
savings and ease of maintenance to keep costs under control
throughout its life cycle.MP14's 100% electrical braking system
recuperates energy and re-injects it into the network as
electricity, while limiting the emission of fine particles caused
by the mechanical brakes. The system reduces the energy consumption
of the metros, as well as air pollution, by up to 20%. MP14 is also
40% quieter than the metros currently in service on line 11, with a
95% recyclability rate.
About 20 automated metros for line 14,
consisting of eight cars each, will be delivered by the end of
2021. The first six-car automated metros for line 4 are currently
being tested. Production of the first five-car metros for line 11
began in the last quarter of 2020 and the first metro will begin
validation tests on RATP tracks this summer.
Eight of Alstom's sixteen sites in France are
involved in this project:
- Valenciennes, for the studies,
integration, validation, and testing;
- Le Creusot, for the bogies;
- Ornans, for the engines;
- Villeurbanne, for the on-board
computerised systems;
- Tarbes, for the traction;
- Aix-en-Provence, for the safety
IT;
- Reichshoffen, for the collision
studies, and
- Saint-Ouen, for the
design.
