Slow charging battery e-buses occupy a good share of world public transport operators’ fleets. There are good reasons for that:

  • null

    They use overnight depot charging, with charging infrastructure safe inside operator premises;

  • null

    Buses are interoperable across routes without charging infrastructure;

  • null

    Night recharging coincides with off-peak times and uses cheap electricity;

  • null

    There is no need for daytime charging or public chargers.
