Assets needed to double the frequency

Assets needed to double the frequency

Provide an impact analysis on the energy supply assets if frequency increase is implemented on the Metro network. Design the new assets needed to run at this frequency in the N scenario and N-1 scenarios of all the substations.

Description of the project:

Use the RET metro model to perform the study. The following questions can be solved: - How many new AC feeding points in the medium voltage network are needed to deliver all the necessary power to the network? - How many new substations are needed in the network and where they need to be placed? - How many new traction groups of existing substations are needed? - How many new feeding cables are needed in order to deliver all the power to the system? - How many km of aliuminium steel are needed in the 3rd rail feeding system to maintain the voltage above 600V? - Which strategies can be applied to maintain the rail-earth voltage below 120V?
