World class operation. Thanks James!!!

[@Telcom100]

Great video. At 6:35, using the rule of thumb for 50kw charging a 600kwh battery, it would be more like 12 hours, not 3 hours. At 6:26, the charger display shows 74kwh added in an hour and 53 minutes.

[@AntonAtan]

Also charging from 90 to 100% takes much longer than 10 to 20%.

[@HenryLoenwind]

@@AntonAtan Not on that low a charging current. For that 600kWh battery, the 50 kW charge is not even 0.09C---the battery would limit to that above about 99%. Between 20 and 80%, they can easily take 3 or 4C. That little charging station is for a bus what the mobile charger you plug into a normal wall socket is for a car. (C is the factor between charging power in kW and capacity in kWh, so charging a 600 kWh batter in 1 hour would be 1C, in 2 hours would be 2C, in half an hour would be 2C, etc.)

[@AntonAtan]

@HenryLoenwind idk about 1 2 or 3C but I'm talking out of my experience driving electric bus from Ohio to Chicago we didn't wait to charge it completely to 100% because it was taking forever.

I see batteries becoming more efficient and smaller before I see hydrogen becoming the new power generator. It is all going in the right direction. Fantastic video James!!

[@austinlawler3739]

True, but hydrogen is very far along. Example Toyota has been working on hydrogen powered cars for years, and there are already hydrogen stations in the US and Canada. I don't think the leap is that big, or that far down the road. But yes, batteries will get smaller and more efficient eventually. The biggest issue is every video James has shown with electric buses is the batteries and other components are made by ABB. A conglomerate, but there has to be a big upside for them to push this technology on buses or trucks. So it could take longer, only time will tell.

[@davefroman4700]

@@austinlawler3739 The issue is the cost of the fuel cells and the infrastructure to support it. Fuel cells, can never be cheap. They have a lot of platinum in them. And the process is horribly inefficient. You need three times the electricity to make enough H2 to drive a vehicle ten miles, than the same vehicle operating on batteries will use. Max efficiency for a fuel cell vehicle is less than 30%. Equivalent to a regular vehicle. Where as a BEV is 90%-95% efficiency. And while you can install charging just about anywhere in a day or two for a very modest amount, A hydrogen station takes months to build and certify because hydrogen is a fugitive molecule. Its the smallest in the world. Which means is VERY hard to contain it. Which means very expensive infrastructure.

[@sixpackmrttomskinner8792]

Great insight to E-buse's and agree hydrogen Engine added will make the difference years ago I drove a prototype van type bus that had a small 2cl engine that provides generator power to run the electrical..

[@americanrambler4972]

The electric bus was cool. The video tour of the electric bus and it’s drive train was very informative. The quietness of the bus is fantastic! You don’t realize just how noisy a diesel motor coach bus is until it isn’t. I was amused at how the lack of noise in the electric bus initially messed with your actual driving of the bus initially. But I bet you , your drivers and all the passengers can get used to that quietness and lack of noise real fast. The EV installation on that bus was optimized for access, not space efficiency. Which at this point in time is a high and cost effective strategy. Over time once the bus world gets used to using EV buses, the packaging of the electric bus driveline and component infrastructure will improve radically. Right now, everyone is noticing the space the batteries and their control hardware takes up in the luggage bays. But as you see, the footprint of the motor takes up only a fraction of the space the Diesel engine and transmission does. There is a lot of real estate taken up by the diesels cooling system, exhaust system emissions system, fuel, coolant, oil tanks and its associated components which has yet to be recovered and repurposed. Once the electrical systems start getting sorted out and evolve and are redesigned to actually fit a bus vs just adapted to fit wherever they can, a lot of that space will return and maybe at the end of the day, the electric drivetrains may actually require only 80% to 60% of the space a diesel installation does. The commercial large vehicle charging network is in its early days of rollout. It will definitely improve, and quite rapidly to. Remember, a large portion of the commercial large vehicle diesel fleet refuels at its home terminal locations. And that is all but invisible to the general public. So the same will be with commercial EV’s. While cross country or long distance bus and truck travel may remain the realm of the diesel for some time, my opinion is urban short distance truck and bus operators will rapidly adopt and change to electrical vehicles as they become price and operational cost competitive with diesel. And the regulatory environment is also driving that adoption rate.

[@PremiumFuelOnly]

Sorry, I prefer my turbo diesel music.

[@americanrambler4972]

@@PremiumFuelOnly Yes, there are certain gas and diesel vehicle engine drive lines which are music to my ears and very enjoyable to feel and experience. Like old school V8 motors in 50’s through 70’s cars, the growl and scream of those old 2 stroke Detroit diesels, the smooth purr of a good running straight six or old straight eight motor. The.

[@offrails]

I would imagine that the next stage would be pure "ground-up" electric buses that are designed to be electric from the beginning, rather than as a retrofit of an existing chassis and sacrificing the luggage compartment. I live in a city that recently acquired a couple of electric buses and aside from some extra components on the roof, they are essentially just a Gillig Low Floor transit bus. Tesla designs its cars with the battery pack at the base of the vehicle, resulting in a low center of gravity, and if adapted for a bus design, it could result in a huge safety benefit. Very fascinating otherwise - though I do not have a need to own bus (or even a place to park one, though it would be cool to haul friends around in), I recently bought a Model 3 and would not want to go back to an ICE vehicle.

[@Yellwolf]

Excellent Trains are electric so the future is solid.

[@davefroman4700]

The issue with the vanhool is they are taking an existing product and cramming batteries into it. Instead of going with a skateboard design. A better packaged design would have a substantial impact on the amount of batteries that can be placed, without greatly impacting storage. And it would probably improve the handling by having all the mass spread out.

[@mfbfreak]

Yes, but imagine the investment in developing a completely new chassis. I'm sure they will eventually do that, but for now it's a smart approach to use some conventional buses as a test bed. First figure out exactly how much battery capacity and motor power you need, and how that can be used by the customer - the situation they have right now. Once you know what it can do with which equipment, you can start designing a purpose-designed EV frame. But with that comes a lot of regulatory hoops you have to jump through, a lot of engineering cost etc. So you have to make absolutely sure that you can recoup all that engineering investment, and do market research. As for what packaging would make sense - i'd do it like the DB did it with their 1960s battery electric rail buses (ETA 150). The batteries were slung under the frame, and could easily be taken out with a forklift in minutes. Those rail buses were used all the way from the 60s till the 90s.

[@davefroman4700]

@@mfbfreak They either disrupt themselves, or someone else will. 99% of all the business models in history have failed to survive technology disruptions. All it will take is for BYD to come out with a long range coach with a 450wh/kg battery and a battery swap system (several in development at the company are already passing that density) and they will corner the market. The cost of operating an EV coach will be 1/4 the cost of a diesel coach. We are already seeing that play out in the transit sector.

[@mikeschulte4271]

Sounds like a good idea but their is no luggage storage it looked like. And when the batteries go bad in a few years r they recycled or trash? It seems like a good idea but their is some quirks they need to work out still it seems like it

If you want truck/large vehicle friendly charging stations to be part of the federally-funded charge station buildout, lobby your state transportation department. The design and layout of these stations are the responsibility of the states, and they'll probably hand it off to private consultants for the actual layout, so you need to put pressure on the state to include accommodations for larger vehicles in the requirements.

Possibly the shocks are bad, or the airbag sensors aren't working ( the airbags aren't getting enough air ), when in good working conditions, the Vanhools IMO have the best suspension in the motorcoach world.

[@louisturner5141]

Only question left is would you op for those to be your tool of choice? All things considered. Thanks for the vid.

[@MotorcoachWorld]

Good question. For now EV vehicles would not fit in our fleet. They simply won't make the range our passengers demand of our buses. And I definitely don't want to turn away all of our customers who book our buses to go between 800 to 1,000 miles in one sitting. I am not afraid of EV technology nor am I against it. In fact I really wish an all-electric motor coach could get the same range a diesel one could so that I can start including EV'S in our fleet. I mean it's obvious. Why wouldn't I never want to pay a diesel bill again... But right now the answer to that question is because it will not satisfy the needs of our customers.

Last Saturday I just rode onboard the same Van Hool t2140 I rode at end of July, too and from a Special Olympics flag football competition. The company this coach is owned by is a small company called Progressive Travel, based in Spencer, WI. All of their motorcoach fleet are strictly Van Hool. Mostly t2145 and t2140, but they also have a Tx45 and a Cx35 as well. This isn't all motorcoach transportation. They also have some Ford Transit mini shuttle buses and many Bluebird flat nose school buses. The school buses are owned by the same people but have different company name. The motorcoaches and mini shuttles are Progressive Travel and the school buses say Burnett Transit on them. I have no idea why that is they have two different names so don't ask me as I'm not the right person lol
