%X This paper presents the training of a neural network using consumption data measured in the underground network of Valencia (Spain), with the objective of estimating the energy consumption of the systems. After the calibration and validation of the neural network using part of the gathered consumption data, the results obtained show that the neural network is capable of predicting power consumption with high accuracy. Once fully trained, the network can be used to study the energy consumption of a metro system and for testing the hypothetical operation scenarios
