Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention provide a train control method for maximizing utilization of regenerative energy. The method mainly comprises: working out a matching error ΔT of a current matched pair of trains Mx (i, j) of a station in the current running situation; and comparing the matching error ΔT with a preset maximum adjustable error ΔTx of the current matched pair of trains Mx (i, j) of the station and determining a strategy for adjusting train running of the current matched pair of trains Mx (i, j) according to comparison results.
