  • Electricity Consumption and Battery Lifespan Estimation for Transit Electric Buses: Drivetrain Simulations and Electrochemical Modelling
    Electricity consumption and battery lifespan estimation for transit electric buses: drivetrain simulations and electrochemical modelling by Ana¨ıssiaFranca B.Eng, University of Victoria, 2015 A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF APPLIED SCIENCE in the Department of Mechanical Engineering c Anaissia Franca, 2018 University of Victoria All rights reserved. This thesis may not be reproduced in whole or in part, by photocopying or other means, without the permission of the author. ii Electricity consumption and battery lifespan estimation for transit electric buses: drivetrain simulations and electrochemical modelling by Ana¨ıssiaFranca B.Eng, University of Victoria, 2015 Supervisory Committee Dr. Curran Crawford, Supervisor (Department of Mechanical Engineering) Dr. Ned Djilali, Supervisor (Department of Mechanical engineering) iii ABSTRACT This thesis presents a battery electric bus energy consumption model (ECONS-M) coupled with an electrochemical battery capacity fade model (CFM). The underlying goals of the project were to develop analytical tools to support the integration of battery electric buses. ECONS-M projects the operating costs of electric bus and the potential emission reductions compared to diesel vehicles for a chosen transit route. CFM aims to predict the battery pack lifetime expected under the specific driving conditions of the route. A case study was run for a transit route in Victoria, BC chosen as a candidate to deploy a 2013 BYD electric bus. The novelty of this work mainly lays in its application to battery electric buses, as well as in the coupling of the ECONS-M and the electrochemical model to predict how long the batteries can last if the electric bus is deployed on a specific transit route everyday.

Policy imperatives and government support could ensure three-fold volume growth by 2020, which would make China half of this developing global market. New entrants are proliferating, with few clear winners as yet, but we conclude that Yutong and BYD have the scale of NEV sales today to support Buy ratings. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Deutsche Bank AG/Hong Kong Deutsche Bank does and seeks to do business with companies covered in its research reports.
