The railway is one of the oldest transportation systems, considered one of the leading players in freights and passenger transportation. However, railway electrification depends on the grid. Transportation of passengers is very sensitive to grid outages, especially in harsh atmospheric conditions, in terms of comfort and safety. Energy storage systems play an essential role in increasing reliability and reducing the load on the grid. Therefore, fast chargers are essential to reduce unplanned stops and failures. In this chapter, the railway infrastructure is elaborated, showing the interconnected microgrid as a railway power supply. In addition, a comparison study on the different energy storage technologies for the railway includes the economic, technical, and environmental aspects of different energy storage technologies for the railway.
