Northern Ireland Railway – Electrification Review

Northern Ireland’s railways are undergoing a major transformation with plans to electrify key sections of the network, reflecting a strong commitment to creating a more sustainable, efficient, and accessible rail system for the future.

Turner & Townsend appointed EFA Engineering to conduct an independent technical review of the Power & Distribution requirements essential to the electrification programme.

This review provided critical assurance on design feasibility, compliance, and performance, supporting informed decision-making. EFA Engineering’s expertise helped ensure that the electrification project aligns with long-term operational goals, regulatory standards, and sustainability targets, driving the modernization of Northern Ireland’s rail infrastructure.
