The Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority Metrorail (Metro) has successfully tested a wayside battery power system (BPS) to store unused energy from regenerative braking. In the first test of its kind, the BPS was installed on an electric train in San Francisco last year. Metro is assessing the feasibility of implementing the new system across the entire network.
