Additional Information
The Arctic Whisper e-Traction bus is billed as the world’s first fast-charged hybrid bus. Its developers say it combines the zero local emissions benefits of an electric bus with the reliability of a diesel…
The Busbaar – charging station provided by Opbrid is located at one end of an Umea bus route and fast charges the bus for a few minutes at the end of each trip, thus extending the all-electric range of the e-Traction hybrid bus to 18 hours. And, since this is a serial hybrid bus with a backup diesel generator, the bus can continue running on diesel or bio-diesel in case of brown-outs, traffic jams, or very cold eather…The 300kW charging station developped by SCHAEFER allows the ultra fast charging in 3-10 min of Lithium Ion Batteries on board of these electrical busses successfully tested in Umea (Sweden) in the “Artic-Whisper” prototype busses.
