This report presents a simulation of the operation of an 18-meter electric bus in Santiago, Chile, with the objective of analyzing the viability of this vehicle type in the Red Metropolitana de Movilidad (Red), the municipal public transportation system. In 2019, the Ministry of Transport and Telecommunications of Chile began the process of decarbonizing public [...]

This report presents the conclusions obtained from the zero-emission bus pilots carried out for the companies Flota Nueva Villa and Expreso Campo Valdés, as well as the lessons learned in similar new vehicular technology testing processes in the city of Medellín and the other municipalities that make up the Metropolitan Area of the Aburrá Valley.

The E-Bus Radar platform (www.ebusradar.org) monitors the implementation of battery electric buses (BEBs) and trolleybuses in the public transport systems of Latin American cities, and their associated reductions in greenhouse gas emissions compared to conventional models. The platform was created and is maintained by the Zero Emission Bus Rapid-deployment Accelerator (ZEBRA) partnership, co-led by the [...]

This study presents a technical-operational simulation to support the transition to electric buses in Greater Valparaíso, considering two transport lines (A and B) and two energy consumption scenarios (optimistic at 0.83 kWh/km and conservative at 1.05 kWh/km). In the higher consumption scenario, a failure to meet the minimum battery level (25% state of charge) was [...]

This report discusses the operational and economic performance, as well as the impact on greenhouse gas and air pollutant emissions, of the transition from a diesel bus fleet to battery electric buses in the city of São Paulo. It evaluates the case of Transwolff, one of the 26 private companies that operate the city’s public [...]

This publication aims to analyze the implementation of electric buses at FNV from a technical and financial point of view. Temporary here. [...]
