Evaluation of Fuel Cell and ITS Technology Applications for Morgantown PRT
项目名称: Evaluation of Fuel Cell and ITS Technology Applications for Morgantown PRT
摘要: The objective of this cooperative agreement is to analyze the demands of the Morgantown Personal Rapid Transit system (MPRT), including vehicle usage, critical control system, facility requirements, winter electric loads for guideway and other system elements, develop strategies to reduce energy usage, implement new procedures, and add or modify equipment and controls to reduce the MPRT system energy consumption. The project will be divided into two phases. Phase 1 will consist of a complete energy audit of the MPRT system, including development of a total energy management program. Phase 1 will identify various alternatives that will be developed in Phase 2. Existing transit experience with clean energy technology, such as fuel cell power systems, as well as new integrated Intelligent Transportation Systems technology will be investigated. In Phase 2, the alternatives recommended in Phase 1 report will be further analyzed with cost and reliability data. New equipment and/or control system techniques will be tested, as appropriate.
