We use longitudinal dynamics and simulation models to study the feasibility of deploying electric buses in place of conventional ones. The longitudinal dynamics model estimates energy use by an electric bus operating on different lines consisting of a mixture of urban and suburban driving. The...

In the current paper a thorough analysis is conducted to assess, on one hand, the impact of vehicle electrification on electric grids and their related infrastructures, and, on the other, its potential contribution to GHG emission reduction. Such an analysis covers the timeframe 2011–2050,...
