Transit Talk Vol
TRANSIT TALK VOL. 41 Edmonton Launches Battery Bus Service Eleven years after the City of Edmonton scrapped its 140 km electric trolleybus system in a backward move that will live in infamy, electric buses of sorts have returned to its streets. The new vehicles are battery buses, built by American manufacturer Proterra. Although only about half as energy efficient overall as trolleybuses, the vehicles are just as quiet and just as fume-free in the streets, where the noxious fumes from diesel buses have the greatest potential for harm. 21 of the new battery- electric buses debuted in August, with the remainder of an order of 40 vehicles to follow. Built in South Carolina, the buses run off long-range batteries, which are charged overnight using electricity from the grid at overhead charging stations in the garage. Edmonton is one of only a few cities in North America to employ this particular type of charging technology. The buses can travel up to 350 km on a single charge. The vehicles are considered a “long range battery bus”. Transit Branch Manager Eddie Robar explained: “We chose a long-range charge bus because that gives us effectively the same capability we have with our diesel buses today — we can do the same things with our electric bus. We get a full service day from that bus. We’re able to apply it to any route or any location in the city. We’re not restricted by where we need to charge the bus at what time of day. It goes back to the garage, it charges overnight and it’s back out for a full day of service the next day.” The 40-foot Proterra Catalyst E2 MAX vehicle boasts 660 kWh of onboard energy and Proterra’s DuoPower drivetrain. -

This document is a much revised, expanded and up-dated version of one I prepared in August 2013 entitled ‘Why I Oppose The Proposed Trolleybus Scheme For Leeds’, which has been put on line at http://newgenerationtransport.com/why-i-oppose-the- proposed-trolleybus-scheme-for-leeds/ ] 2 ABSTRACT. Speaking essentially about the northern part of the route, my criticism of the trolleybus scheme is divided into three parts. In the first of these, I explore the reasons why the A660 has always been an unsuitable route for rapid transit systems from the time of the Beeching report onwards, via Supertram (as was already clearly indicated in 1977 in the initial appraisal of possible new tram routes). -
ANM Inaugurates the Electric Car Charging Network in Naples Be Charge Active in Bagnoli the First 6 Columns a Complete Project Will Be 180
PRESS RELEASE ANM inaugurates the electric car charging network in Naples Be Charge active in Bagnoli the first 6 columns A complete project will be 180 Bagnoli (NA), 25 May 2021 - Twelve charging stations active from today in Bagnoli and via Argine, three by the end of the month in Porticelli,a kick off of a seriesof 180 charging stations in all anm parking lots. This means the inauguration of the first public electric charging hub for cars built in Naples by Be Charge, the company that was commissioned by Anm to install the network. From today those who have an electric car will be able to park it in Bagnoli and put it in charge, giving the sign that Anm wants to contribute to give to the mobility of the city of Naples. "Charging stations for electric cars are one of the signs of our look to the future, to make it present," explains Anm's chief executive Nicola Pascale. In recent months we have committed ourselves with determination to carry out the project that will soon equip the city with 180 charging stations, pushing the Neapolitans to choose electricity as fuel, eliminating their weight on the air quality of their city. The columns are an important piece of a route: in the last two years we have introduced 180 new very low-emission buses, we are finishing testing the new trains for Metro line 1, we are about to activate the new trolleybus towards the hospital area. A work that Anm is carrying out looking at the objectives set by the EU that in the 2020 Green Deal that aims to achieve climate neutrality in Europe by 2050, starting from the reduction of emissions by at least 55% by 2030». -
