印度铁道部已经推出了一节用太阳能板来供电的非空调客运车厢，太阳能板安装在车顶上，这是大规模利用绿色能源的一部分。
Railways is planning to come out with a solar policy for procuring 1000 MW solar power in the next five years.
Coaches of Shan-e-Punjab Express and Taj Express are also going to be equipped with solar power shortly, a senior Northern Railway official has said.
铁道部计划出台一项太阳能政策，争取未来5年里获得1000兆瓦的太阳能发电能力。
北方铁道局一位高官说，不久后，Shan到旁遮普的快车和泰姬陵快车的车厢也将安装上太阳能。

it is more of a fantacy than a useful right technology for Non-ac boggies
这技术更多是虚幻的，不大实用

Train may not be able to run purely on solar energy, for long trips. A Hybrid model should be developed which utilizes most of solar power and supplemented by power grid may be a practical idea.
列车跑长途也许不会纯粹靠太阳能。
要发展的应该是混合动力模式的列车，最大化利用太阳能，加上输电网补充电力也许是实际的想法

Too much emphasis on solar power may not be good .. This plan may backfire as wel
过于注重太阳能也许不好，也许会适得其反Joemike Fernandes (Unknown) replies to Abhay Dhar
can you say how?
怎么说
Wasim (Mumbai) replies to Joemike Fernandes
Because solar panels produce little power and the power requirement by a train is 1500 kw approx. so I don't don't think such a small solar panel will generate 1500 kw of energy.太阳能板的发电量很小，而列车需要的电力大约是1500千瓦。我认为小小的一块太阳能板发不出1500千瓦的能量
