Bus Methane FC¤
Bus Technology Overview¤
The Bus technology category encompasses city buses designed specifically for urban transportation.
Bus Performance and Usage Metrics¤
The key performance and usage metrics for buses are outlined as follows:
- Annual Distance (dannual): City buses have an annual mileage of 56,000 km.
- Average Occupancy Rate (nlpv): The average occupancy rate is 14 passengers per vehicle, as reported by STM.
- Utilization Factor: The utilization factor is established at 35%, resulting of an average speed of 18 (km/h) 1.
- Reference Capacity: This yields a reference capacity of 63.89 passenger-kilometers per hour (pkm/h), determined using the formula:
\[
ref_{size} = \dfrac{d_{annual} \cdot n_{lpv}}{8760 \cdot c_p}
\]
Where cp represents the capacity utilization percentage.
Methane Fuel Cell¤
Methane fuel cell vehicles leverage the chemical energy of methane, CH4, to generate electricity through a fuel cell. These vehicles operate on the principle of converting methane directly into electrical energy, which then powers the vehicle’s electric motor.
