Due to inherent advantages of DC system over AC system such as compatibility with
renewable energy sources, storage devices and modern loads, Direct Current Microgrid …

As a large energy consumer, the railway systems in many countries have been electrified
gradually for the purposes of performance improvement and emission reduction. With the …

Electric rail transit systems are the large consumers of energy. In trains with regenerative
braking capability, a fraction of the energy used to power a train is regenerated during …

The integration of energy storage into energy systems is widely recognised as one of the key
technologies for achieving a more sustainable energy system. The capability of storing …

Compared with energy storage equipment based on supercapacitors, flywheels, or lithium
batteries, inverters have obvious advantages in installation space, cost, reliability, and …

The DC Microgrid concept has been flourishing in the recent times due to its intrinsic
advantages like Renewable Energy Source (RES) compatibility, easier integration with …

This paper presents a comprehensive experimental analysis about the influence of
supercapacitor banks as energy storage system (ESS) in renewable energy sources-based …

To improve the power quality (PQ) and eliminate the neutral zone (NZ), a flexible traction
power supply system (FTPSS) was proposed to provide flexible interfaces for hybrid energy …

In modern electrified and rail-bound mass transit vehicles, a considerable part of the braking
energy is still dissipated via resistors. This applies in particular to less connected and low …

A low-level distributed nonlinear controller for a DC MicroGrid integrated in a Smart Railway
Station capable to recover trains' braking energy is introduced in this paper. The DC …
