Information about electric buses collected by Patsornchai Tour
Get to know Electric Buses: What are they?
The world’s first electric bus was created in 1907 by the London Electrobus Company. At that time, battery technology had not yet been developed to support bus-like driving. In 2010, battery technology was developed in leaps and bounds, leading to the introduction of new battery technology into larger electric buses, such as 12-meter buses (which is the size of most petrol buses and buses in use today).
When it comes to buses, China is one of the first countries to start using electric buses on a large scale. In 2009, Shanghai Catenary Bus Lines began replacing internal combustion engine buses. Turned into an electric bus, and in 2010, the automaker BYD began producing the BYD K9, which is considered the most widely used electric bus.
In 2017, Shenzhen replaced more than 16,300 combustion-powered buses with electric buses, making it the largest electric bus fleet in the world.
According to a survey by Bloomberg, China is adding 1,900 electric buses per week.
Benefits of using electric buses in agencies and organizations
Since electric buses are considered a form of zero-emission travel, they help reduce the carbon footprint of employees who have to travel every day. They also help reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the organization as a whole, making our world a better place!
In terms of comfort, if we compare combustion engine buses with similar electric buses, electric buses can help reduce fatigue and increase comfort during the journey because they are quiet and do not vibrate from the engine. Your journey will be like sitting in your living room at home.
What are the uses of electric buses?
The use of electric buses has only one limitation: the distance per charge of the vehicle. Therefore, choosing the route of the electric bus should be well planned. So what kind of travel is suitable for electric buses?
- Electric buses for picking up and dropping off employees in departments
- Electric buses for picking up and dropping off on university campusesElectric buses for picking up and dropping off at airports, parks, and transportation hubs
- Electric buses for sightseeing in the city or short travel routes
- Electric buses for general sightseeing, but must be in areas with widespread charging stations And travelers can wait for charging.
- Electric buses for public transportation
Safety system on electric buses, is it safe?
Safety is something that cannot be neglected in every journey. Patsornchai Tour therefore selects high-quality electric buses with reliable test results, equipped with electrical circuit breaker, electrical flow control, fire extinguishing, and other complete equipment. Patsornchai Tour’s electric bus drivers have been well-trained in driving and operating electric buses, including maintenance technicians who are experts in the maintenance and care of electric buses.
How long does it take to charge an electric bus?
The charging time of a bus depends on the power of the charger and the maximum capacity of the electric bus. However, Phassarachai Tour’s electric bus takes 1-4 hours to charge from 0 to 100% of the battery.
Advantages and disadvantages of electric buses
Advantages of electric buses
- Quiet travel, no engine vibration, reducing fatigue for drivers and passengers
- Good acceleration from a standstill, making driving in the city smooth
- Zero-Emission, zero emissions (in the electric bus itself)
- Use energy efficiently because there is a Regenerative Brake system that recharges the battery when braking, so energy is not wasted
Disadvantages of electric buses
- If comparing buses of similar sizes, electric buses are heavier than combustion engine buses because the batteries are heavier, which may result in higher maintenance costs
- Electric buses have a shorter range or distance per charge compared to combustion engine buses, which is an obstacle in choosing a travel route
- Current electric buses The price of the vehicle is still quite higher than the combustion engine bus.
- The battery and various equipment of electric buses have a relatively short lifespan and are expensive. When it is time to change, the service cost may be higher than the combustion engine bus.
- On steep routes, electric buses will have a much shorter distance per charge, sometimes not being able to complete the trip.
- In the world market, electric buses are not yet widespread, making them a new technology and have not proven themselves over the years.
- Electric bus charging stations are not yet widespread in Thailand. Each trip requires careful charging planning.
- Charging an electric bus is slower than refueling a combustion engine bus, so travelers sometimes have to wait at the charging station.
- In countries that still use electricity from Non-Renewable Energy, such as coal and oil, it may not be considered 100% Zero-Emmision because the source of the energy
- It still creates carbon dioxide into the atmosphere
- Management of electronic devices and batteries in electric buses must be meticulous and correct not destroying nature when the electric bus expires
Summary
All the information mentioned is a collection from the experience of using electric buses by Patsornchai Tour. However, while battery technology has not yet reached its full potential, the short distance per charge is still a limitation for electric buses to travel to new destinations, including charging stations that are not yet widespread in Thailand, causing the routes of electric buses to be limited. Providing electric bus rental services is therefore suitable for use in picking up and dropping off employees, running regular routes that have not changed, at a higher service fee than combustion buses, with the convenience of the quietness of the vehicle and traveling in an environmentally friendly manner. It is worth investing in our future.Think of electric buses, think of Phassarachai Tour!
