In this study, a new concept for the integration of rail-based public transportation systems with electric vehicle (EV) parking lots operated by a park and ride strategy is propounded, including also renewable resources based energy production. In the proposed structure, the charging power demand of the EV parking lot is supplied by different charging strategies considering the existing unused energy infrastructure capacity and the regenerative braking energy of the railway system, altogether. Here, the design of a photovoltaic (PV) based carport type renewable energy production unit is also realized in the existing local parking area. The development of an optimal energy management system to effectively manage these inputs is realized and the uncertainties pertaining to EVs' demand are also taken into account. To demonstrate its efficacy, the concept is tested considering a bench of case studies and comprehensive results are obtained.en10.1109/TSG.2022.3163343info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessRail TransportationTransformersProductionAutomobilesRenewable Energy SourcesPower DemandCharging StationsCharging StationsElectric VehiclesEnergy ManagementRailway SystemsRegenerative Braking EnergyRenewable Energy ResourcesManagementMobilityArticle13430493058Q1WOS:0008146923000492-s2.0-85127511244Q1
