Electric railway power systems (ERPS) as one of the most critical and high-power end-user loads of utility grids are characterized by outlandish power quality (PQ) problems all over the world. The extension and evolution of different supply topologies for these systems has resulted in significant and various forms of distortions in network voltage and current in all ERPS, the connected power system, and adjacent consumers. During the last years, numerous studies have been offered to investigate various aspects of PQs in a specific supplying topology. Variation in the supply structure of the ERPS and different types of locomotives has propelled the observation of different PQ phenomena. This versatility and development have led to confront considerable types of two-way interactive interfaces as well as reliability and PQ problems in ERPS. In addition, the lack of standards explicitly dedicated to ERPS has added to the ambiguity and complexity of this issue. In this paper, an extensive review of PQ distortions and phenomena in different configurations of ERPS is proposed and a systematic classification is presented. More than 140 scientific papers and publications are studied and categorized which can provide a fast review and a perfect perspective on the status of PQ indexes for researchers and experts.

The present paper is a review on efficiency issues related to three important sectors of the transportation systems: railways, electrical vehicles, and marine. For the three sectors, the authors, in reference of their knowledge and research area, show the results of a wide literature analysis, in order to highlight which are the measures, in terms of technological solutions and management techniques, which are recently investigated and implemented, for improving the three transportation systems, from the point of view of efficiency. In particular, for the railway transportation sector, a wide analysis is presented, detecting which are the main measures adopted for improving the efficiency, related to the power systems for supplying trains and to the train traffic control, with a focus on the storage system integration. For electric road vehicles the analysis is focused on the plug-in electrical vehicles and on the infrastructure for their recharge, with an emphasis on how these vehicles can support the grid, e.g., through Vehicle to Grid (V2G) applications. Finally, for the marine transport service the review is related to the propulsion systems and on how the different solutions can meet the objective of efficiency.

Railway power flow controllers (RPFCs) are known as a power electronics based full-fledged compensator in the field of electric railway systems (ERSs). They have attracted experts attention over the last years due to their outstanding performance in dealing with power quality (PQ) problems. The complexity, randomness and uncertainty characteristic of ERS and traction loads have led the control of RPFC to be difficult. In this paper, a precise modeling method based on space-state model (SSM) and dynamic switching pattern is presented. Applying the extracted equivalent model and mathematical equations, a modified model predictive control (MMPC) method is proposed to improve the compensation and dynamic performance of RPFC. To eliminate the low frequency oscillation (LFO) and other external disturbance effects, a dual-loop modified d-q frame control is implemented with frequency locked capability. Precise simulations have been provided to verify the modeling and proposed control procedure performance. Moreover, a real-time laboratory setup based on RT-LAB and Opal-RT is provided to confirm the simulation results and theoretical analysis according to the desired specifications of the real ERS.

The environmental pollution caused by fossil fuels is a hot issue around the world in recent years. The gases lead to poor air quality, in particular in large cities, and the global warming that can cause ecological calamity such as tropical cyclones, heatwaves, drought, and extreme tides. International Energy Agency clearly states that the current energy trend is not sustainable environmentally, economically, and socially. Therefore, it must devise solutions to achieve the future economic growth without adverse environmental effects. The increasing diffusion of electric vehicles is driving academic and institutional research towards exploring different possible ways of charging vehicles in a fast, reliable, and safe way. For this reason, wireless power transfer systems have recently been receiving a lot of attention in the academic literature. This chapter reviews the main analytic and computational tools that are typically used to perform analyses in the context of inductive power transfer systems (IPTSs).

Many studies on EVs have been performed in recent years, and various EVs have been developed, like pure battery EVs, hybrid EVs, battery replace EVs, or plug-in hybrid EVs, that use lithium (or polymeric) batteries that can be recharged at home or at a charging station. The biggest challenge to the commercialization of the EV is the battery. The battery problems on electric vehicles can be solved by using roadway-powered electric vehicles (RPEVs). RPEVs do not require heavy and large batteries because they directly get power while moving on a road. These vehicles can take power either in a wired or wireless way. Thus, various wireless power transfer systems (WPTSs) have been developed for RPEVs, and as consequence, new types of RPEV have been developed. WPTS for RPEVs should be able to deliver high power efficiently through a small air gap for avoiding collision between the road and the vehicle.

Protecting the environment important for 94% of Europeans. For this reason, new technologies have to be studied. In particular, the fuel cell is a possible the world's forthcoming sustainable and clean energy source. One reason is the power-generation efficiency. They offer the ability to convert chemical energy directly into electrical energy with a very low environmental impact. For this reason, the aim of this work is to study the application of the fuel cells for railway sector. A real situation has been analyzed in particular a hydrogen trains on the Brescia - Iseo - Edolo line. The objective of this study is to find eco-friendly solutions to low-medium traffic lines, where the electrification would be too expensive or impossible from a practical point of view. The most important challenge is to keep - or improve - the performance of the rail vehicles in comparison to the diesel traction even when facing strong slopes.

The aim of this work is to study the actual behavior of grounding systems using the Finite Element Method (FEM) in the Ansys Maxwell environment. Given the importance of grounding resistance to ensuring the proper functioning of all electrical systems and even more so for people's safety, it is nevertheless advisable to verify and validate this method for its application during the design stage. The validation of the model has been carried out through the hemispheric electrode, whose mathematical expression for the grounding resistance is well known. However, for other type of electrodes, as grounding rods, the equations usually adopted to design grounding systems provide only approximated values for their grounding resistance. Besides, these equations are able to estimate the grounding resistance only for homogeneous resistivity of the earth. Consequently, traditional methods can give values for the grounding resistance that can differ from the actual behavior due to these uncertainties. In this paper, the use of finite element analysis has been investigated to determine a better estimation of the grounding resistance in different scenarios and to find the distribution of the grounding potential for step and touch voltages calculation on particular critical conditions.

The advent of alternative vehicle technologies such as Electrical Vehicles (EVs) is an efficient effort to reduce the emission of carbon oxides and nitrogen oxides. Ironically, EVs poses concerns related to vehicle recharging and management. Due to the significance of charging station infrastructure, electric vehicles’ charging stations deployment is investigated in this work. Its aim is to consider several limitations such as the power of charging station, the average time needed for each recharge, and traveling distance per day. Initially, a mathematical formulation of the problem is framed. Then, this problem is optimized by application of Genetic Algorithm (GA), with the objective to calculate the necessary number of charging stations then finding the best positions to locate them to satisfy the clients demand.

The main objective of this paper is to address access to modern energy and to examine options for reducing fossil fuel independency on electricity generation for the underserved communities, people living in poverty or at a subsistence level or for the remote northern populations, who are excessively affected by the negative impacts of climate change like Red Lake in Ontario, Canada, part of Canadian remote northern communities. Therefore, the implementation of this microgrid promotes better health care and education, ensures environmental sustainability so as to combat global warming conditions in the energy sector in Ontario. In addition, the electrification is expected to help the remote communities and the country to achieve more rapid social and economic objectives. This study is performed using the Micropower optimization modelling simulator called HOMER. Different case studies with various configurations have been analysed. It has been found that the microgrid with the use of multiple renewable energy sources mixture provides the optimal solution.

The purpose of the paper is to study the role and the importance of electrochemical storage systems in electric networks characterized by a significant penetration of unpredictable renewable sources. The role of Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESSs) are analysed simulating three scenarios characterized by a different penetration of renewable sources. Simulations results prove that BESSs, differently from a past situation characterized by very low installations of wind and solar power plants, turn out to be important when the percentage of renewables installed power similar to that of Italian network in 2013 is considered. Positive results are also obtained simulating a hypothetical future situation in which the total installed power is mainly constituted by plants based on unpredictable sources.

The aim of this investigation is the analysis of the opportunity introduced by the use of railway infrastructures for the power supply of fast charging stations located in highways. Actually, long highways are often located far from urban areas and electrical infrastructure, therefore the installations of high power charging areas can be difficult. Specifically, the aim of this investigation is the analysis of the opportunity introduced by the use of railway infrastructures for the power supply of fast charging stations located in highways. Specifically, this work concentrates on fast-charging electric cars in motorway service areas by using high-speed lines for supplying the required power. Economic, security, safety and environmental pressures are motivating and pushing countries around the globe to electrify transportation, which currently accounts for a significant amount, above 70 percent of total oil demand. Electric cars require fast-charging station networks to allowing owners to rapidly charge their batteries when they drive relatively long routes. In other words, this means about the infrastructure towards building charging stations in motorway service areas and addressing the problem of finding solutions for suitable electric power sources. A possible and promising solution is proposed in the study that involves using the high-speed railway line, because it allows not only powering a high load but also it can be located relatively near the motorway itself. This paper presents a detailed investigation on the modelling and simulation of a 2 × 25 kV system to feed the railway. A model has been developed and implemented using the SimPower systems tool in MATLAB/Simulink to simulate the railway itself. Then, the model has been applied to simulate the battery charger and the system as a whole in two successive steps. The results showed that the concept could work in a real situation. Nonetheless if more than twenty 100 kW charging bays are required in each direction or if the line topology is changed for whatever reason, it cannot be guaranteed that the railway system will be able to deliver the additional power that is necessary.

The strong growth of the solar power generation industry requires an increasing need to predict the profile of solar power production over a day and develop highly efficient and optimized stand-alone and grid-connected photovoltaic systems. Moreover, the opportunities offered by Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESSs) coupled with PV systems require an ability to forecast the load power to optimize the size of the entire system composed of PV panels and storage devices. This paper presents a sizing and control strategy of BESSs for dispatching a photovoltaic generation farm in the 1-hour ahead and day-ahead markets. The forecasting of the solar irradiation and load power consumption is performed by developing a predictive model based on a feedforward neural network trained with the Levenberg-Marquardt back-propagation learning algorithm.
