Meteor Power Limited

Meteor Power has designed a solution to reduce drag for many rail applications, ranging from locomotives to aggregate and intermodal wagons. Ironically, to haul empty wagons requires over 60% of the energy of hauling full wagons, despite the weight being reduced by 70%. The greatest improvements will be seen on empty aggregate wagons and partially full in...

We have customers that haul loads of up to 2,700 tons over the mainline to and from specialist sites, such as quarries and ports. Many rely on ageing and highly specialised locomotives on site and Class 66s or 70s to haul cross country. One of the challenges in making good progress on the mainline is being able to get through each section without having t...

Saving the planet one delivery at a time. Governments all around the world are trying to legislate their way to much greener transportation whilst most transport operators are already finding their margins cut to the bone. In the rail industry the margins in the freight sector can be the difference between just one extra wagon. What if we could solve both...

The challenge is to replace a massive 92.27 litre diesel engine that produces 261kW (350hp) and 160kN (35,000 lb/ft) torque. Instead of suddenly placing this highly inefficient engine under heavy load to generate power on demand, with all the emission and noise implications that go with it, the new solution will allow the battery pack to provide the power...

Meteor Power is looking for help to secure expert guidance in preparing investment documentation, identifying potential investors, travelling to San Francisco to meet potential partners willing to trial our products and expertise to support in writing EU grant funding applications. We are also seeking support to give us time to solve a number of manufactu...

With new emissions legislation for 2 wheeled applications and intense media and consumer scrutiny in 4 wheel applications Meteor Power has identified a significant opportunity for an efficient electric motor for high performance applications in sports cars and motorcycles, with a number of additional applications in off highway, military, marine and other...
