For phase one 'CAF Urbos 3' trams have been introduced. Phase two brings now 'Alsthom Citadis X05' trams to the network. The light rail system operates catenary-free on 1,435 mm standard gauge track. The Citadis trams run autonomously (regarding energy supply) thanks to the Autonomy charging solution, combined with the Citadis Ecopack system of energy storage and catenary-free recharging system at each station. The trams also boast several new technologies, including permanent magnet motors for higher efficiency, as well as optimised HVAC (heating, ventilation and air-conditioning).
