Many researchers in the world have put a lot of attention on the application of energy storage in railway and achieved fruitful results. According to the latest research progress of energy storage connected to electrified railway, this paper will start with the key issues of energy storage medium selection.
The previous on-board storage system model and energy consumption model (described in Sect. 6.2.1) can be incorporated into typical train driving simulation models for efficient-driving purposes.
