Episode notes

Could Londoners in the near future glide around the capital on Tube trains powered by the sun and wind?

The Leader podcast looks at a project that’s already harnessing solar power to help electrify a commuter line into the capital.

Meanwhile, TfL is also researching viability of using more renewable energy - could it help cut ticket prices?

We’re joined by Leo Murray, co-founder of train-tech start-up Riding Sunbeams.
