    Reducing energy on construction by 15% (against a target of 8%), and recycling 98% of the construction and demolition waste, are among facts presented in this Crossrail report on its environmental performance. At Old Oak Common, the use of things such as solar roof panels is expected to reduce operational carbon emissions at the line’s new depot by 35%; and at 319 tonnes, the Class 345 trains are reportedly 25% lighter than equivalent existing trains.
