Tram us southwest energy storage station

Why do we need stationary energy storage systems?

Since a shared electric grid is suffering from power superimposition when several trams charge at the same time, we propose to install stationary energy storage systems (SESSs) for power supply network to downsize charging equipment and reduce operational cost of the electric grid.

What is the art tram core subsystem?

The unique system of the ART Tram, which is work as intelligent core subsystem, includes a multi-source perception system, a path tracking control system, and an autonomous guided trajectory following system (AGTFS). 3.1. ART Tram Core Subsystems 3.1.1. Car body

Should rail vehicles have onboard energy storage systems?

However, the last decade saw an increasing interest in rail vehicles with onboard energy storage systems (OESSs) for improved energy efficiency and potential catenary-free operation. These vehicles can minimize costs by reducing maintenance and installation requirements of the electrified infrastructure.

How many art tram routes are there?

Market Deployment and Operation Since its inception in 2017, the ART tram system has swiftly expanded, encompassing five routes totaling 59.4 kilometers. Notably, the Yibin, Sichuan Province, line marked the pioneering commercial launch of this innovative system in 2019.

How fast are ForCity 15T hydrogen trams?

In December 2019, running tests on a fleet of Forcity 15T hydrogen trams began in Foshan . The vehicles are equipped with Ballard's fuel cell stacks and are claimed to have a range of about 100 km with a maximum speed of 70 km/h. The fleet is expected to operate on the 17.4 km Gaoming line by the end of 2020 .

What is the body structure of art tram?

The body of the ART tram consists of an integrally load-bearing aluminum alloy welded body structure and a climate-resistant steel welded structure frame connected to the bogie respectively, as shown in Fig. 3. Fig. 3. Body structure diagram of ART tram.
