The article contains the main provisions of the methodology for determining the indicators of electric locomotives energy efficiency. The results of indicators calculations for electric locomotives of series 3ES5K, EP2K and 2ES6 are presented with reference to the current sections of railways. The proposed approach can be used to establish the level of energy efficiency of various series of electric rolling stock and their objective comparison when operating at different sites with trains of various masses with the aim of further creating an automated system for optimizing the use of traction resources of JSCo Russian Railways.
