The Line 1 of the Lima and Callao Metro Network trains are powered by electric DC voltage and use regenerative braking to decelerate, injecting this electrical energy into the catenary so that other trains can use it at the same time. However, it is required that one train is braking, and another is accelerating for this phenomenon to occur and for this energy be used effectively, otherwise, it is wasted being dissipated in the form of heat without its possible use. In order to increase this amount of reused energy, the present research has described possible alternatives to implement such as the return of energy to the grid through reversible substations, or energy storage systems inside or outside the train, using batteries, supercapacitors or wheels of inertia, to reduce the consumption of the Line 1 power network. ETAP's eTrax specialized software for railways was used to perform the electrodynamic simulation of Line 1 under a baseline scenario and evaluate the effects under scenarios with the alternatives of reversible substations and lithium battery banks in the stations. The results of the simulations showed potential energy savings throughout the system of up to 27.98% with reversible substations and up to 3.56% with battery banks installed in all rectification substations (SER). Likewise, there were peak power reductions of up to 977.64 kW in the SER Cabitos, through reversible substations and of 742.51kW in the SER Miguel Grau through battery banks. These results were used to evaluate and select the alternative of best applicability in Line 1 through a Multi-Criteria matrix based on aspects of Investment, Performance, Maintenance, and Implementation, where, according to the criteria of the operating company, the alternative of reversible substations was selected and recommended for its installation.
