Application Status and Issues of Electric Double Layer Capacitors for Electric Railway Beijing Jiaotong University Zhongping YANG 2012. 3. 1
Energy storage technology and Electric Railway • In recent years, energy storage technology is rapidly developing. • Energy storage devices • Secondary battery, fuel cell ,flywheel, electric double layer capacitor , SMES etc. • The appearance of energy storage devices makes the electric railway become more energy-saving, environmentally-friendly mode of transportation. Lithium ion battery Flywheel EDLC
Applications of energy storage in electric railways • 1988, Flywheel, Keihin Electric Express Railway, Japan • 2000, Flywheel, hybrid DMU ‘LIREX’, Germany • 2002, Pure flywheel tram ‘PPM’, Seven Valley Railway, UK. • 2003, Lithium-ion battery, hybrid LRV ‘Hi-tram’, Japan • 2005, Ni-MH dual LRV, France • 2006, Lithium-ion battery + fuel cell, hybrid EMU, East Japan Railway • 2007, EDLC, Seibu Railway, Japan • 2007, EDLC, Line 5, Beijing Subway, China • ……
The expected effects (1)Vehicle • Regenerated energy absorbed and reused • Preventing regeneration failure • Energy saving • Improvement of acceleration characteristics • Ability to drive to the next stationin the case of electric power failure • Hybrid railway vehicle can be developed
The expected effects (1)Vehicle Engine CKD6E5000 (China) Lithium-ion battery
The expected effects(2)Power feeding system • Suppressing catenary voltage fluctuation • Reduction of peak power
The expected effects (3)Environment and operation • The LRV may run in partially non-electrified line to maintain the beauty of landscapes • The catenary is fully or partially removed • Direct operation between electrified and non-electrified line
Which storage device is suitable (1)Energy density and power density • Battery: high energy density, low power density • EDLC: high power density, low energy density Source : Maxwell Technologies SA
