A Study on the Analysis of Time-variant Load Characteristics for Electric Railway and the Application of Micro Grid
This study shows an application method of Micro Grid integrating Solar Energy Seasonal Storage (SESS) based on the analysis of time-variant load characteristics of electric railway. Micro Grid includes various renewable energy generation plants as like wind farm, photovoltaic, small hydro, fuel cell, etc. and some energy storage systems to meet the balance between generation production and demand. The essential concept of this paper is the connection and integration between electric railway and Micro Grid including SESS which is able to control power system frequency. This new concept for power system stabilization would be tested in an independent Micro Grid site and some detail application methods would be evaluated for the commercialization.
