Abstract
The article is devoted to the analysis of trends of operation Regular municipal routes served by the Mosgortrans, and the selection of parameters for solving the problem of optimal allocation of electric buses to serve a given set of routes.
The number of registrations and sales is estimated as one of the methods for assessing the trends in operation of electric buses. The average values of the battery capacity are determined depending on the category and purpose of operation of an electric bus. The analysis of governmental programs for electrification of passenger transportation of some countries has resulted in compiling a set of statistical values, followed by the study of domestic experience in operating electric buses on regular municipal routes.
The results of the analysis, considering the identified trends, have allowed setting the objective of selecting priority parameters for determining the routes to be served with electric buses.
Regular municipal routes served by the Mosgortrans, largest European operator of electric buses, have been selected as the object of the study.
The main research method has been based on PRISMA, a proved methodology of meta-analysis of previously completed studies. The analysis of 22 methodological approaches to organising the operation of electric buses has resulted in identifying four priority technical and operational parameters influencing the selection of the route (Lm, Ve, Nstop, Q). The study has allowed to suggest a general algorithm for solving the problem of selecting optimal regular municipal routes for operation of electric buses and to identify directions for further research.
