Recycling the braking energy of a moving train is no more a matter of luxury. Rail transit authorities are challenged to increase energy efficiency of rail transportation and reduce its environmental impact. ABB’s ENVILINE energy management solutions offer up to 30 percent energy savings for direct current (DC) rail transportation. This innovative and holistic technology is presented at the 60thUITP event in Geneva
What started as an inquiry for a single rectifier transformer replacement ended as an order for three complete rectifier systems to the full satisfaction of the customer.
Stability of the grid has a special meaning in the renewable power generation sector. Storing energy from the grid and feeding it back when required offers a range of options that enhance the stability, performance, power quality and reliability of electricity grids integrating renewable sources. ABB and Prudent Energy have numerous references in this application field and their number keeps growing.
The first vessel equipped with an onboard DC grid system began its sea trial in Norway. The name of the ship is “DINA STAR” and it is owned by Myklebusthaug group. ABB Switzerland in Turgi developed and tested the core of its highly efficient onboard DC system.
ABB’s energy storage technology, developed in Napier, New Zealand, is helping Prudent Energy, a leading green energy company, with their overall battery energy storage solution being installed to strengthen grid reliability on Sumba, a small island in eastern Indonesia.
