Abstract

China has attached much importance to the public transportation electrification, and invested much into electric vehicle technologies R&D. The mass penetration of pure electric bus faced many barriers in the world due to high traction capacity installed. A lot of operating strategies of electric bus were adopted in China demonstration cities, such as normal charging with higher battery installed capacity to extend All Electric Range (AER), fast charging with lower AER, battery swapping with medium battery capacity. Targeting to evaluating the effectiveness the different strategies and cost-benefit from life cycle view, the analysis models of Hefei city were proposed. Based on the condition of Hefei city and real time data of all-electric vehicle technologies in China, the economic-technology of all electric bus under different scenarios was evaluated. The trade-off battery capacity installed values are obtained and the potential of the Hefei battery leasing mode is evaluated.
