Morris Brenna, Federica Foiadelli, Hamed Jafari Kaleybar
Abstract
In this article, dc and ac railway microgrids (RMGs), together with the concept of the energy hub as the architecture of future railway power supply systems, are analyzed and outlined to provide a useful road map to remove restrictions and facilitate the development of SG technologies in the railway sector.
