Metro energy storage design

What are the benefits of storing energy in Metro stations?

In turn the stored energy could power upon demand selected stationary electrical loads in Metro stations of a non-safety critical character (such as lighting, ventilation, pumps, etc.) leading to very significant energy savings and to a corresponding reduction of greenhouse gases.

Who is Metro storage?

Metro Storage is a 100% Australian owned business and is well established within the self storage industry. We are a proud member of the Self Storage Association of Australasia (SSAA) and abide by the Code of Ethics as outlined by this industry association. Metro Storage is dedicated to providing an exceptional storage experience.

Does a stationary hybrid energy storage system work in Metro traction substations?

This paper focuses on the configuration of a stationary hybrid energy storage system, located in metro traction substations in turn located inside Metro stations. The recuperation energy of the metro braking phase is then reused to feed stationary electrical loads of metro stations.

Who is a potential funding source for a sustainable Metro project?

The European Investment Bank (EIB) as well as ERDF is considered as potential funding sources for this exemplary sustainable investment. The large scale of metro operations requires a substantial amount of electrical energy.
