Bus Hybrid Diesel¤

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.

Hybrid Diesel¤

A hybrid vehicle integrates an internal combustion engine with an electric motor. Unlike plug-in hybrids, this type of vehicle relies on a battery and an electric motor to capture kinetic energy during vehicle operation.

The hybrid vehicle features a lithium battery that is smaller compared to those found in fully electric vehicles, aimed at decreasing fuel consumption. However, the increased weight of hybrid vehicles may lead to higher fuel use.

ES Model Parameters¤

All the parameters concerning the Bus Hybrid Diesel are listed in the table below.
