Abstract:This article examines the adoption of Battery Electric Buses (BEBs) in hot climates, highlighting the pursuit of sustainable transportation. It contrasts bus technologies and their adaptability to heat, with a focus on the operational strategies and performance metrics suited to these environments. The role of charging infrastructure is assessed, alongside the thermal tolerance of lithium-ion batteries, to establish their compatibility with BEBs in warm regions. Energy consumption patterns of BEBs are analyzed… Show more
