5 FAQs about [Tram old battery storage station]

How did modern tramways develop a new energy storage system?

In terms of modern tramways, early alternative solutions involved either onboard traction batteries (typically in the form of Nickel-Metal Hydride cells), or onboard supercapacitors. These technologies established a new form of technology, generally termed ‘Onboard Energy Storage Systems’, or OESS.

What is a battery-powered tramway?

Battery-powered tramways are a type of public transportation system that rely on batteries for power. New projects in this field often focus on lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries, which is a family of electrochemistries that has developed over the last 30 years. One relatively new type of Li-ion battery is Lithium Titanate Oxide (LTO).

Can lithium batteries be used in a tramway?

The suitability of lithium batteries within a tramway environment is dependent upon the chosen battery chemistry, as there are a large number available, with differing capabilities in terms of performance, safety, and durability.

When will a battery-powered tram be available in Romania?

In July 2019, the city of Timisoara in Romania signed a contract with Bozonkaya A.S. to deliver 16 battery-powered trams to enter operation in 2021, when the Rumanian city becomes the European Capital of Culture . In 2018, Bombardier's ‘Talent 3’ catenary/battery train was unveiled to the public.

Can batteries be charged at a station or depot?

Battery charging can be done at stations or depots using pre-existing electrified infrastructures. However, when long-range operation is required, dedicated fast-charging islands along the route become necessary to avoid oversizing of the batteries.
