120kW Photovoltaic Energy Storage Container Used at Damascus Railway Station

How BS-HSR's electricity demand was covered by the railway PV system?

The PV system provided power to the railway system from 5 a.m. to 7 p.m. The railway PV systems were able to cover BS-HSR's electricity demand before 6 p.m. The local railway PV generation satisfied 93.4% of the electricity demand in Jiangsu without the assistance of energy storage devices.

How much power does a railway PV system use a day?

The peak hourly consumption was approximately 60 MWh and 55 MWh, respectively. For railway PV systems, the total generation on the day was 12,051 MWh, which is approximately 24 times higher than the consumption. The PV system provided power to the railway system from 5 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Can railway PV supply power to the HSR?

The lowest daily PV generation is 1334 MWh, which still covers 60% of the electricity consumption. These results indicate the high potential of the railway PV system to supply power to the HSR and show that the railway system is not highly reliant on the storage system, which undoubtedly cuts the system costs.

Can a railway PV system supply electricity to a bullet train?

Same as the situation in Jiangsu, the railway PV system in Shandong can supply electricity to bullet trains during the daytime; after 6 p.m., the railway system needs to import electricity either from storage systems or the utility power grid. Fig. 8.
