Are battery electric bus fleets a good idea?
The use of battery electric bus (BEBs) fleets is becoming more attractive to cities seeking to reduce emissions and traffic congestion. While BEB fleets may provide benefits such as lower fuel and maintenance costs, improved performance, lower emissions, and energy security, many challenges need to be overcome to support BEB deployment.
Can a bus charging method optimize energy storage systems in seconds?
The numerical simulations demonstrate that the proposed method can optimize the bus charging time, charging power, and power profile of energy storage systems in seconds. Monte Carlo simulations reveal that the proposed method significantly reduces the cost and has sufficient robustness to uncertain fluctuations in photovoltaics and office loads.
How many battery electric buses are there?
As of 2020, there were over 500,000 battery electric buses deployed worldwide (McKerracher et al. 2020). As agency-owned fleets with dedicated service patterns, battery electric buses (BEBs) can have fewer barriers to deployment than passenger light-duty vehicles (LDVs).
What is the optimal bus charging strategy?
The optimal strategy considers the charging events of all buses at the bus depot and the availability of chargers. Realistic constraints related to battery energy storage and power conservation of the integrating system are applied.
