Electric train used a energy storage | Electrician Talk
Officials from Valley Electric, a Nevada co-op with a 150-MW peak summer load, first encountered ARES at a symposium in 2011, Valley Electric CEO Thomas Husted said in an interview. At the time the utility expected 3 GW of solar to come into its system, so it was very interested in energy storage. Husted was not put off by ARES'' …
Project
Project Overview. Located on the site of a former coal-fired power plant 50 miles northeast of Las Vegas, the Reid Gardner Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) is a 220 MW / 440 MWh project. The Reid Gardner BESS is one of the largest of its kind in Nevada, providing bulk energy shifting for regionally produced renewable solar energy.

The Future of Rail – Analysis
Total energy demand for the rail sector in 2050 is around 42% more than in the Base Scenario. Yet despite increases in activity, rail transport still accounts for only 4% of total transport energy demand in 2050. In both of the scenarios the rail sector experiences strong electrification, and therefore energy diversification.
