Results report for a joint electrical grid for light rail transit and buses
How can we combine the energy supply of light rail transit and e-buses and at the same time noticeably decrease operating costs? The intelligent direct current substation GUW+ supplies both city railways and trams, as well as charging stations for electric buses. Together with stationary energy storage systems, for example from used e-bus batteries, many new functions can be generated.
