Abstract :
An overwhelming trend that marks the
beginning of the transportation sector’s energy transition
is the electrification of public transportation. The public
sector’s considerable influence and predominance of
public ownership define the transportation industry.
Consequently, tendering processes Are frequently used to
determine which bus delivery options are the most
efficient. Based on a comprehensive analysis of the Polish
bus market and in-depth interviews with individual
vendors, this paper compares, assesses, and delineates the
distinctions between the criteria applied in tenders for
battery electric buses and diesel buses. The article
additionally endeavors to ascertain whether the
proportion of the vehicle price in the life cycle cost or total
cost of ownership aligns with the weight assigned to the
“vehicle price” criterion. The outcomes show There isn't
a noticeable distinction between diesel and battery electric
buses' tender requirements. Institutions that had
previously created diesel bus acquisition patterns applied
those patterns, for the most part, to battery electric bus
tenders. As a result, the weights assigned to the criteria in
tenders do not account for the benefits and drawbacks of
either technology. Procedures for tendering are modified
to meet regional needs and operational specifications. On
current routes and schedules, electric buses frequently
take the place of conventionally powered vehicles.
Operational requirements are therefore known. This
makes it possible to calculate the required number of
vehicles as well as the fundamental technical and
operational parameters (such as choosing the best
charging technique and battery capacity). The charging
strategy will therefore have an impact on the overall cost
of ownership Opportunity charging is preferred for
longer mileages, and overnight charging is preferred for
shorter assignments.The electrification of public
transportation is a massive trend that represents the first
stage of the energy transition of the transportation sector.
The transportation industry is defined by the significant
influence of the public sector and the prevalence of public
ownership. As such, tendering proceduresare widely
employed to identify the most effective bus delivery
options. This paper compares, evaluates, and discusses
the differences between the specifications used in tenders
for battery electric buses and diesel buses. It is based on a
thorough examination of the Polish bus market and
indepth interviews with specific vendors. The piece also
aims to determine whether the percentage of the car price
in the life cycle cost or overall cost of ownership is
consistent with the importance given to the "vehicle
price" factor. The results reveal no appreciable.
