How to optimize energy storage for electrified railway ESS?

The coordination control and capacity optimization among energy storage modules in HESS is still the key. The emergence of new energy storage technologies such as power lithium titanate battery and gravity energy storage also provide more options for electrified railway ESS.

Why is ESS used in electrified railways?

The ESS applied in electrified railways has high grid-side input voltage, frequent switching of operating conditions, large instantaneous energy and wide voltage variation range.

What is the application of ESS in the field of rail transit?

At present, the application of ESS in the field of rail transit includes energy storage trains, hybrid trains and ground regenerative braking energy recovery devices.

How to select energy storage media suitable for electrified railway power supply system?

In a word, the principles for selecting energy storage media suitable for electrified railway power supply system are as follows: (1) high energy density and high-power density; (2) High number of cycles and long service life; (3) High safety; (4) Fast response and no memory effect; (5) Light weight and small size.

What is ground energy storage access scheme of electrified railway?

Table V. Ground energy storage access scheme of electrified railway. Its voltage level is high, which can reduce the loss caused by energy transmission in the line to a certain extent, and the capacity of ESS is large. It has a low voltage level and is only suitable for short-distance transmission to supply power to station loads.
