UIC Electric Vehicles (EV) charging & Rail power grid

The idea is to make the most out of an efficient (smart) power management between the public grid, the railway grid, and any energy storage systems connected to it.
As direct benefits, it helps save the whole grid’s capacity, improving inherent efficiency (avoiding losses due to high load and wear from intense use), and maximising renewable energy allocation into the grid and storage to avoid the loss of production.
This is an extremely powerful improvement to get the best out of an electric system, while increasing useful energy storage capacity. This comes along the new “Vehicle to grid” (V2G) approach, enabling smart management of energy storage systems from electric vehicles to properly balance energy provision and demand by acting as a controlled buffer system and flexible load.

The UIC Electric Vehicles (EV) charging & Rail power grid

session will be hosted to share and explore opportunities, best practice and standardisation for Electric Vehicles charging with the rail system (EVs: Buses, trucks, maintenance machinery, battery trains, etc..)

More information about the timeline will be disclosed closer in time.
