Abstract

Cities worldwide are deploying electric buses rapidly to enhance eco-friendly public transportation. Most existing electric transit systems rely solely on stationary charging at terminals and have to equip buses with large-sized batteries to maintain operation in networks. Consequently, the stationary-charging electric bus (SE-Bus) systems are subject to high battery costs, limited range per charge, long charging time (layover time), etc. These limitations may be addressed by integrating the new wireless power transfer technology, which provides contactless charging to the operating buses without extra delays. To guide wireless-charging electric bus (WE-Bus) designs in corridors, this paper proposes an optimization model to jointly optimize (i) the electric supply system and (ii) the transit service that are interdependent.
