The wide array of available technologies provides a range of options to suit specific applications within the railway domain. This review thoroughly describes the operational mechanisms and distinctive properties of energy storage technologies that can be integrated into railway systems.
This study delves into the integration of photovoltaic (PV) and energy storage systems (ESS) into AC railway traction power supply systems (TPSS) with Direct Feed (DF) and Autotransformer (AT) configurations. The aim is to evaluate energy performance, overhead line current distribution, and conductor temperature.
The adaptability of batteries, supercapacitors, and flywheels as energy storage systems for rail transportation is summarized and compared. The topologies and integration methods of various energy storage systems are studied. The control strategies under each control of rail transportation are summarized and proposed.
The reliability and economy of power supply have become essential factors in transportation. By adding energy storage to the power supply system of railways, energy efficiency can be increased, and the impact of power system failures can be reduced. The application of energy storage in transport systems has been studied to some extent.
