Abstract
When developing projects for introduction of electric buses into operation and determining the required infrastructure, it is necessary to justify the concept and methodological approaches to choosing of routes, to estimate the number of charging stations, depending on their type, and to conduct economic assessment of the proposed solutions in specific operating conditions.
The article discusses the main issues of organising operation of buses with electric traction (electric buses) on the routes of public urban surface transport. A primary analysis of both current and prospective electric bus routes was carried out regarding the city of Moscow.
Adaptive calculation methods are proposed based on classical methods for determining the required number of vehicles for a route regarding a given transit capacity, passenger traffic flow, and a given traffic interval.
The current and prospective schemes for location of charging stations are considered, a method for determining their required number is proposed.
A methodological approach of determining direct costs associated with transportation has been adapted to operation of electric buses on the route.
Supporting agencies: The research was conducted with the support of the Committee on public relations and youth policy of the City of Moscow, application 2019–0417.
