Design Developement of an integration solution to utilise spare capacity in transport systems to provide local energy supplies in dense urban centres.

该项目将进一步开发安全连接电力轨道交通系统(直流牵引)和电动道路车辆(EV)、太阳能电池板(PV)的产品。我们的方案还提供了通过连接到直流牵引来创建单相或三相低压电源的能力。我们的产品使用双向DC/DC转换器，包括所有安全设备，以遵守工作中的电力规定，并将上述系统安全互连。我们的产品能够在直流牵引系统和电动汽车充电器、太阳能发电和低压电源之间传输能量，以最大限度地提高能效，节省运营成本，并通过提供电动汽车充电器创造额外收入的机会。我们的产品的应用将使交通主管部门、铁路运营商、网络铁路和轻轨运营商有机会通过从现有电源获得备用低压电源来降低运营成本，而不是从当地配电网络运营商购买额外的电源供应-提供基础设施，以支持电动汽车需求的增长。这一点在交通交汇处尤其重要，例如火车站的停车和乘车。这也将提供增加收入的机会。-通过在合适的地点连接太阳能光伏以促进直流牵引、电动汽车充电器和低压供电，从而降低运营成本。这是一种创新的解决方案，尚未安装在铁路网络上用于直流牵引，一旦该技术得到证实，网络铁路第三轨系统和轻轨运营商将有一个巨大的市场。我们预计电力供应业将有更多机会，他们正在研究在人口稠密的市区提供低压供电的创新方法，以满足客户的永久后备供应或临时使用。我们的产品将提供一种灵活的解决方案，可以从直流牵引和太阳能光伏(如果适用)和电池组中获取联网能量，我们可以将这些电池组装在容器中，在低负荷期间通过直流牵引充电。

The project is to further develop product that safely connects electrically powered rail transport systems (DC traction) and electric road vehicles (EV), solar panels (PV). Our proposal also offers the ability to create single or three phase low voltage supplies from connection to DC traction.Our product uses bidirectional DC/DC converters and includes all safety equipment to comply with Electricity at Work regulations and safety interconnect the above systems.Our product enables the transfer of energy between DC traction system and EV chargers, solar power generation and LV supplies to maximise energy efficiency, save operational costs and create the opportunity for additional revenue by the provision of EV chargers.The application of our product would allow Transport Authorities, Rail Operators, Network Rail and Light Rail Operators the opportunity to- Take advantage of reducing operational costs by deriving back up LV supplies from existing electrical source rather than procuring additional supplies from the local Distribution Network Operator- Provide infrastructure in support of the rise in demand for EV. This is especially important at transport interchanges such as park and ride for rail stations. This would also provide the opportunity for additional revenue.- Reduction of operational costs by interconnecting solar PV at suitable site to contribute to DC traction, EV chargers and LV supplies.This is an innovative solution that has not been installed on the rail network for DC traction and there would be a large market for the Network Rail third rail system and Light Rail Operators once the technology is proven.We foresee additional opportunities with the Electrical Supply Industry who are looking at innovative ways of providing LV supplies in dense urban areas for permanent back up supplies or temporary usage required by their clients. Our product would offer a flexible solution that could derive networked energy from DC traction and Solar PV (where applicable) and battery banks that we could containerise that could be charged by DC traction during low load period.
