An effective energy management strategy is optimized to enable a reasonable distribution of demand power among the storage elements, efficient use of energy as well as enhance the service life of the hybrid energy storage system (HESS).
Compared with the traditional overhead contact grid or third-rail power supply, energy storage trams equipped with lithium batteries have been developed rapidly because of their advantages of flexible railway laying and high regenerative braking energy utilization.
An equivalent consumption minimization strategy is proposed and verified for optimization. This paper describes a hybrid tram powered by a Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) fuel cell (FC) stack supported by an energy storage system (ESS) composed of a Li-ion battery (LB) pack and an ultra-capacitor (UC) pack.
The tram mainly comprises the energy storage system, traction system, and auxiliary system, and the specific structure is shown in Fig. 1. As the sole power source of the tram, the battery pack can supply power to the traction system and absorb the regenerative braking energy during electric braking to recharge the energy storage system.
However, trams may face expensive battery replacement costs due to battery degradation. Therefore, this paper proposes a multi-objective optimization method for the tram's driving strategy to reduce operational energy consumption and extend battery life. The method describes the optimization problem as second-order cone programming (SOCP).
An improved PSO algorithm based on competitive mechanism is developed to obtain the optimal energy management strategy. The obtained energy management strategy has better effects in energy reduction with application in Guangzhou Haizhu tram. Trams with energy storage are popular for their energy efficiency and reduced operational risk.
