Why are lithium batteries used in energy storage trams?

Compared with the traditional overhead contact grid or third-rail power supply, energy storage trams equipped with lithium batteries have been developed rapidly because of their advantages of flexible railway laying and high regenerative braking energy utilization.

Why are energy storage trams important?

The modern tram system is an essential part of urban public transportation, and it has been developed considerably worldwide in recent years. With the advantages of safety, low cost, and friendliness to the urban landscape, energy storage trams have gradually become an important method to relieve the pressure of public transportation.

What are the different energy supplies for the catenary-free tram?

Schematic diagrams of different energy supplies for the catenary-free tram: (a) UC storage systems with fast-charging at each station (US-FC), (b) battery storage systems with slow-charging at starting and final stations (BS-SC) and (c) battery storage systems with fast-swapping at the swapping station (BS-FS).

What does a battery pack do on a tram?

As the sole power source of the tram, the battery pack can supply power to the traction system and absorb the regenerative braking energy during electric braking to recharge the energy storage system. The traction system mainly consists of the inverter, traction motor, gearbox, and axle.

How much energy does a tram use?

The greater the distance between stations, the greater the demand energy. The first interval has the largest distance and maximum energy consumption. If the recovered braking energy is not included, the energy consumption is 7.012 kwh. Fig. 3. DC bus demand energy curve. The tram adopts the power supply mode of catenary free and on-board SESS.

How much energy does a MTS tram use?

In MTS trams, the Ni-MH battery features rated energy and power of 18 kWh and 85 kW, respectively, while the supercapacitors' rated power output is 288 kW. The total weight of the hybrid storage system is 1646 kg, resulting in specific energy and power of 11.45 Wh/kg and 226 W/kg, respectively.
