That plan was revealed by Sun-Ways Switzerland, Swiss based Startup Company. Their main ambition is to upgrade country’s Railway infrastructure facilities, the testing would be carried out in the year 2025 and for that purpose, innovative solar energy system would be implemented from 1 TWh per 5,000 km of railway tracks.

While elaborating initial testing details of solar energy project, Swiss Startup Company said that they had checked performance successfully after train travelled on tracks over solar panels at speed of 150 km/h and therefore optimistic that it could withstand traffic at speeds of up to 240 km/h.

Switzerland a tourist country located in west-central Europe, said to known for Swiss chocolates, watches, fondue, Swiss cheese, Fasnacht, skiing and train rides for visiting tourists worldwide would definitely be rank higher as far as solar energy technology is concern.

The environmentalists predicted that green projects like these would be helpful for reducing CO2 emissions by 200,000 tons every year in Switzerland.
