Electric energy storage in DC traction power supply systems

open access: yes, 2018
Electric energy storage systems have been known for a long time. In order to store energy the following solutions may be used: mechanical (rotating wheels, compressed air), chemical (hydrogen), electrical (batteries and supercapacitors), and others. Supercapacitors and batteries are most common in electric traction systems.
