ELECTROMOBILITY IN

PUBLIC TRANSPORTElectrification already produced a Revolution in Public Transport…

From horses-powered to electrical trams

UITP was already following such trend:

The high cost of horses’ maintenance vs. electricity traction was one of the key topics discussed at the UITP’s Berlin Congress in 1886.

UITP APPROACH TO CO2

EMISSIONSUITP, the European bus manufacturers and the public transport undertakings and jointly produced their approach to “decarbonisation of transport” and GHG emission reductionHolistic approach

Modal shift: the best carbon reducing strategyTraffic management

Infrastructure and operational issues

Smart energy use in vehicles

Electric Buses

Combined mobility

Electric buses are one element of this strategy

UITP BUS COMMITTEE:

ELECTRIC BUS ACTIVITIESFuel & Traction Systems Observatory (FTSO)

Compile the experiences of different public transport networks in this area & follow evolution of technologies and relative market take-up & analyse major industrial trends

hybrids, fuel cells and hydrogen buses, electric buses…

TWG evolution into Committee

UITP STANDARDISED ON-

ROAD TEST CYCLES (SORT)Referential developed by the UITP Bus Committee in collaboration with bus manufacturers.

Standardisation of the On-Road TestAddress the lack of comparable information on bus fuel consumption

Allow comparable, repeatable, simple measures to evaluate supporta call for at tender stage

New SORT-Hy for hybrids validated

New version for electric bus SORT-E in development – release 2014

ELECTROMOBILITY IN PT FROM

STATE-OF-ART OPERATIONS TO

RESEARCH

E-mobility is getting to be an issueof its own. All leading worldmanufacturers are investing a lotin the development of hybrid andelectric buses and new efficientcharging and power deliveringtechnologies.All largest PT operators alreadyhave or planning to haveelectrically driven on-roadvehicles within their fleets.

This becomes a reality worldwide.Against this background the roleand position of regular trolleybusnetworks is put in a reneweddaylight. With the electrification ofdiesel buslines UITP willdemonstrate technology andexplore such trend.

UITP EU PROJECTS: ZEEUS

ZERO EMISSION URBAN BUS SYSTEMS

Provide decision makers with Guidelines and Tools to support decision on “if” “how” and “when” to introduce electric buses in the core bus network

Evaluate the economic, environmental and societal feasibility of electric urban bus systems through demonstrations

Facilitate the market uptake of electric buses in Europe with dedicated support tools and actions
