Description (excerpt):
This study was supported by Environmental Defense Fund. It is aimed at assisting transit agencies as they begin to plan for significant electrification of their bus fleets. It focuses on battery electric technologies (not fuel cell technologies) and is limited in scope to charging technologies, designs, and choices (rather than vehicle technologies, except as these impact charging).
This report incorporates learnings from 28 industry interviews completed between January and April 2022 by Atlas Public Policy staff. Interviewees are listed in Figure 1. These interviews sought to understand latest developments, challenges, solutions, and lessons learned in BEB charging, and to compile specific examples, anecdotes and on-the-ground experiences from those at the forefront of deployment.
