🔋 Train Station Energy Storage Lab

Design a battery system for a busy station. Store solar power at lunch, discharge during expensive evening peaks, protect essential services, and work out whether the project pays back.

Storage controls

—Usable battery
—Daily savings
—Simple payback
—CO₂ avoided

Energy dispatch board

This model is simplified for learning. Real systems also need fire safety, battery degradation, grid approvals, warranties, and railway resilience rules.

Press calculate to see whether the station battery is too small, balanced, or overbuilt.

Challenge missions

Mission 1: Beat the evening peak

Increase battery size until at least 80% of peak energy is covered.

Mission 2: Solar-first station

Raise solar energy and see when midday production fills the battery.

Mission 3: Resilience boss

Increase emergency reserve. What happens to savings and backup time?

Mission 4: Financial freedom fund

Put 25% of yearly savings into a creator or business fund. How fast does it grow?
