Abstract |
In this paper a battery based Energy Storage Unit (ESU) sizing methodology is proposed for tramwayapplications. At the same time, the required recharging system is also defined. For that, a tramway ismodeled to define power and energy requirements. Then, the methodology is applied to obtain a set ofsolutions for LTO (power oriented) and sLFP (energy oriented) cell technologies, as well as, static anddynamic wireless recharging systems. The objective is to size the required system using batteries and itsassociated recharging system as an ESU for 15-year operation. |
