Metro is integral to the urban rail transit with the expansion of the city. Due to the tremendous power consuming of the traction load which is generally considered to be megawatt class, the attendant problems concerning energy-saving and emission-reduction cannot be neglected. An approach wherein the photovoltaic plants are connected into the metro traction power supply system to provide electrical energy is proposed in this paper. Given the deterioration of power quality brought about by PV connection, the photovoltaic inverter adopts output reactive power control method.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
