Poll
Does your agency has a plan in place to deploy EVs in the foreseeable future?
![Page 4: The future is electric, are you ready for it? Omer Goldschmidt · 2021. 1. 29. · Omer Goldschmidt VP, Strategy and Business Development omer@optibus.com.

All-EV transit: fantasy or reality?
• The global e-bus fleet grew about 32% in 2018• China has almost 500K electric buses in daily use
• By 2025, one third of all European buses are expected to be electric
• North America begins experiments and deployments
• Regulations mandating a minimum amount of electric buses
• Major bus manufacturers joining the market
• More battery and e-bus options than ever

A cross-agency challenge
• Range: Less than traditional diesel buses
• Charging infrastructure and charging strategy
• Different electricity prices throughout the day
• Battery discharging rates are just a baseline

“Range anxiety” - Should we be worried?
• The energy density of batteries is below that of diesel
• Batteries don’t always work as advertised
• Batteries degrade over time
• What influences energy consumption?

Planning and scheduling is all about difficult operational tradeoffs
• Network and route plan
• Bus stops and depot locations
• Timetable alignment
• Vehicle type & capacity
• Collective labor agreements
• Regulatory requirements
• Performance KPIs

New parameters and constraints
• Vehicle type and capacity
• Battery type, usage and minimum levels
• Charger type and profile
• Charging locations
• Utility costs / Charging times
• Electric-only or mixed fleet

How can we overcome it?
![Page 13: The future is electric, are you ready for it? Omer Goldschmidt · 2021. 1. 29. · Omer Goldschmidt VP, Strategy and Business Development omer@optibus.com. Title: PowerPoint Presentation](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081621/6125a207e159277c0c277a18/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Charging: possible impact on the schedule
• Can we tie charging events to operators break preferences?
• Charging that fits within timetables
• Electric-only or mixed fleet?
• What impact would this have on our KPIs?
