Asian Development Bank praises Azerbaijan Railways’ visionary on decarbonisation of railway system


“The railway is an energy-saving mode of transport. The reason for our participation in COP29 is to support the decarbonization of transport. We support Azerbaijan Railways (ADY) in terms of digitization and decarbonization.

Regardless of the expectations at COP29, it is a pleasure to work with ADY, who is quite visionary about the decarbonisation of the rail system across the country. I am very proud that we have been cooperating with Azerbaijan in the railway sector for many years.”
