This book provides a systematic assessment of the performance of electric and hybrid buses in urban areas on a daily basis and presents a complete set of technical scenarios to promote their efficient exploitation. It will also help readers understand how future buses will perform on specific roads and how the latest technologies can be integrated into existing fleets by proposing a methodology for evaluating the energy consumption for general and specific routes and scenarios. Covering all aspects relating to the daily use of electric and hybrid buses, including maintenance strategies, power train configuration, battery replacements, route evaluation, and charging speed, emphasis is placed on energy efficiency and effective implementation. Addressing key developments in intelligent vehicle technologies, the book presents innovative transportation technologies and a broad range of topics in transportation-related sustainability research, from vehicle systems and design, to mass transit systems.

This book addresses various aspects of electric mobility deployment in public transport. These include transport policy-related issues as well as technical, organizational and technical dimensions of the fleet conversion process (from conventional one towards the increased share of electric vehicles in public transport). In the book, one may find, e.g. the determinants for the successful functioning of electrified transport systems (including charging facilities), models and methods for battery electric bus energy consumption, the analysis regarding the charging strategies (including power-grid) as well as electric vehicle battery issues. As the process of fleet conversion is multi-faceted, the book also contains the issues related to cybersecurity in public transport, autonomous vehicles and hyperloop. The book is dedicated to transport professionals, consulting companies and researchers in the field of electromobility and modern transport systems.
