The paper reports a measurement campaign and a simulation validation for the 'Roma-Giardinetti' tram line in Rome, that provides urban service from the main train station of Rome 'Roma Termini' towards a suburban neighborhood of the city. A digital oscilloscope recorder Yokogawa OR100 has been used for the measurements. A monitoring on voltage and current profiles along the line, as well as on power consumptions of the tramline during the daily service, has been performed.

The paper describes a measurement campaign conducted at the Engineering Department of Astronautics, Electrical and Energetic, Sapienza University of Rome. Starting from measurement campaign, in the context of building an urban microgrid, a PV plant and a energy storage system has been proposed. The measurements were conducted in two relevant period of the year in order to know the power consumption of the facility.
