Abstract :
The ESS is considered to be one of the useful devices for energy storing and recycling. The ESS reduces primary energy consumption without affecting transport capacity and punctuality. This paper presents the basic performance tests and charging/discharging test of the 1500 V ESS. Characteristics with/without the ESS are also presented for comparison. The verification test on field focused on stabilizing voltage and energy saving. The catenary voltage with the ESS did not drop and rise within the specific voltage limit.
