Boosting Input Voltage of Traction Inverter Using Energy Storage Equipment and its Energy-saving Performance

Energy-saving Technology for Railway Traction Systems Using Onboard Storage Batteries

Motomi Shimada Yoshihiro Miyaji Takashi Kaneko Keita Suzuki OVERVIEW: The first application for onboard storage batteries came with the commercialization of series hybrid drive systems that reduced the fuel consumption of diesel trains. Storage battery control has also been used for the absorption of regenerative electric power and to implement the regenerative brake with extended effective spe...

Double skin glass façade and its effect on saving energy

One of the most important methods of saving energy and providing indoor comfort conditions of buildings is the careful design of the façades. A “double skin glass façade” is optimally one of the best options that control the heat interaction between indoor and outdoor spaces. Two kinds of heating energy is usually transmitted through exterior envelope “conduction” and “radiation”. Double skin g...

Simulation research on rail transit traction grid voltage stabilization and its energy saving effects based on BESS

In order to realize voltage stabilization and energy saving of rail transit traction supply system, a Li-ion battery energy storage system (BESS) is presented for application in the DC traction grid to reuse the braking energy of the vehicles. According to the models of traction substation, power lines and vehicles, the braking energy saved by BESS is calculated in MatLAB/Simulink, and the perf...

Compensation of Voltage and Current Harmonics in Hybrid Renewable Energy System Using Coordinated Power Control of RES Inverter

In this paper, an adaptive control strategy is proposed for the inverters of renewable energy source (RES) to simultaneously control the load voltage, grid current and the amount of instantaneous injected power to the grid in the presence of grid voltage distortions and nonlinearity of load current. In the proposed control strategy, the power quality of the local load can be settled based on th...
