With the government’s hydrogen as an energy carrier, and has many mandate that all federally financed bus purchases competitive advantages (e.g. low carbon feedstocks) be zero emission beginning in 20231, cities and that will grow this sector as the world seeks low transit authorities are faced with a choice of what carbon intensity fuel options. On the technology technology to deploy. Transit operators can consider side, Canada is already home to world leading two zero emission electric bus solutions: fuel cell hydrogen and fuel cell companies that cover all electric buses (FCEBs) or battery electric buses elements of the supply chain— including hydrogen (BEBs). Both technologies are needed to ensure the production, distribution, dispensing and utilization, transition to 100% zero emission transit. fuel cell vehicle engineering and manufacturing). FCEBs are electric buses that offer all of the benefits The potential for growth is immense, with financial of BEBs without some of the drawbacks. FCEBs incentives available at regional and national levels fueled with hydrogen are the only zero-emission to support the deployment of fuel cell electric technology to offer one-to-one replacement of buses and hydrogen refueling stations. Analysis diesel fleets with complete route flexibility, short performed by both Deloitte China and McKinsey & refueling time and similar depot space utilization. Company shows that commercial fuel cell vehicles, such as transit buses, will become competitive with With more than 15 years on the road and millions of diesel vehicles within the next five to seven years. kilometers in passenger service, FCEBs have proven There is a clear line of site to a positive payback, their performance. FCEBs have demonstrated with fuel cell electric vehicles projected to be less reliable operation in revenue service despite varied expensive to run than battery electric and internal drive cycles and challenging geographies. Over combustion engine vehicles within 10-years. 2,500 fuel cell buses have been delivered to transit operators around the world. Read on to learn more about the benefits of zero- emission FCEBs for public transportation in Canada. Fuel cell electric buses hold a significant economic value for Canada, even when compared to their Ballard Power Systems 3 New Flyer’s Xcelsior CHARGE H2™ 18 metre articulated fuel cell electric bus Zero–Emission Fuel Cell Electric Buses for Canada Ballard Power Systems 4 Clean public transit powered by renewable hydrogen will improve air quality in our cities. Ballard Power Systems 5 Introduction Climate change is one of the most significant issues of our Canadian cities and transit agencies have already recognized times, demanding action today . Governments around the world the need to transition to zero emission buses . The City of are doing their part; Canada has committed to achieve net-zero Vancouver, for instance, has committed to working with the emissions by 2050 .

Transit is rolling out a plan to electrify its entire other actions that remove carbon from the atmosphere – are fleet of more than 1,000 buses across the province by 2040 essential to keeping the world our children grow up in safe and livable . The Canadian Federal Government’s December 2019 mandate letter to the Minister of Infrastructure and There are significant opportunities for zero emission vehicles to Communities3 outlines a policy that will affect many transit play a key role in Canada’s carbon neutrality mandate .

Net zero by 2050 can only be achieved by decarbonizing both heavy-duty vehicles and passenger cars – and hydrogen is a This is undoubtedly a major change in the future of urban vital part of the solution . In fact, it’s hard to see how we can get transportation in Canada and one that will require forward there without it .

The central decision is the world in implementing zero-emissions vehicles (including choice of zero-emission technology: fuel cell electric buses transit buses), climate change and air quality concerns have (FCEBs) or battery electric buses (BEBs)—or, most likely, a compelled multiple agencies to deploy both battery electric combination of both . and fuel cell electric buses into their fleet operations to meet all required duty cycles . Providing the hydrogen produced FCEBs are the only zero emission solution that can meet is from low carbon sources, or the carbon emissions created the performance demands of transit operators without from it captured, hydrogen could play an important role compromise .

Ballard Power Systems 6 Benefits of Zero-Emission Fuel Cell Buses FCEBs provide affordable zero-emission transportation with FCEBs do a complete day’s work even on the most arduous no compromise in vehicle performance . FCEBs are the only routes and allow for a 1:1 replacement for conventional diesel zero-emission technology to offer full vehicle capability or compressed natural gas (CNG) technologies .

    Electrifying Medium-Duty Vehicles in Minnesota Capstone Paper In Partial Fulfillment of the Master's Degree Requirements The Hubert H. Humphrey School of Public Affairs The University of Minnesota Christov Churchward, Jacob Herbers, Ben Picone, Drew Turro Client: Minnesota Pollution Control Agency Capstone Instructor: Fred Rose Date of Oral Presentation: 5/6/2019 Approval Date of Final Paper: 1 Executive Summary State of the Market Medium-duty electric vehicles (MDEVs) are still in the early stages of adoption across the U.S. Cost- parity on the initial purchase price of these vehicles relative to their conventional counterparts is not expected until the mid-2020s. A lack of organizational experience operating and maintaining EVs and a dearth of charging infrastructure present challenges to the early deployment of all types of EVs. Furthermore, most test cases for MDEVs are in California, whose warmer climate makes it difficult to draw accurate operational comparisons to Minnesota. Despite this, manufacturers are entering the market and providing a greater variety of vehicle choices. The number of class three through six (5-13 tons) electric vehicles on the market increased by a factor of six from 2013 to 2018, going from four to 24. Utilities, recognizing customer demand for EVs, are developing specialized programs and electricity rates for their customers to keep the costs of EV charging low. Furthermore, MDEVs operate with half the fuel cost per mile versus a comparable diesel vehicle. For fleet owners able and willing to take on the
