In this paper authors present a method for optimal
sizing of supercapacitor (SC) energy storage system (ESS) for
braking energy recovery in tram network. The method is
applicable for segmented tram networks with radial feeding
topology and a stationary storage system installed in traction
substation. The method is demonstrated for one traction
substation of Riga public transport network.
