Product overviewThe energy storage module co-developed with Musashi Energy Solutions integrates modular energy storage cells with an embedded Battery Management System (BMS). It is designed for railway and rail vehicle applications where simultaneous high output power and high energy capacity are required to manage regenerative braking and supply traction power.
Benefits and Features- Extended service life with enhanced operational safety
- Output power density exceeding conventional lithium-ion battery systems
- Energy capacity density exceeding conventional hybrid supercapacitors
- Optimised combination of power and capacity to absorb regenerative braking energy and provide running power
Applications- Hydrogen fuel cell hybrid trains
- Diesel hybrid trains
- Overhead catenary-less (battery/energy storage) trains
- Substation peak shaving and grid support
- Brake resistor replacement
- Onboard and wayside railway energy solutions
Sustainability and future-proofingThe module supports operators' carbon reduction targets by enabling efficient energy recovery and facilitating integration of renewable energy sources in rail systems. Its flexibility and efficiency make it suitable for modern fleet upgrades and infrastructure projects.
