India EV Bus Depot Calculator – A Case Study

India EV Bus Depot Calculator – A Case Study

Using the example of a Delhi based bus operation, this case study shows how the new ITES India EV Bus Depot Calculator can determine daily charging demand, charging infrastructure and costs for India’s future fleets of electric buses.

9 August 2024

377 million Indian citizens live in urban areas, fuelling an ever-increasing need for shared transport solutions. The Indian government is accelerating its support for the adoption of electric buses as part of a transport eco-system that aligns with India’s, and the global, decarbonisation goals.

Implementing a 24-hour urban e-bus service presents many challenges, including the dual challenges of suitable charging and electricity network infrastructure. Bus operators will also need to model and understand future energy demands and costs. 

The ITES India EV Bus Depot Calculator is an easy-to-use Excel-based tool. The Calculator can be configured by EV bus operators to reflect their operations and future strategies, and to support their decision making and planning. 

This Case Study explores the use of the calculator to anticipate future fleet energy demands and infrastructure requirements with an illustrative Delhi bus fleet. 

How the ITES India EV Bus Depot Calculator provides both stakeholders and fleet operators with a clearer vision of how to operate more sustainably

The Calculator provides a wealth of data including: 

  • Varying chargepoint costs 
  • Chargepoints with other power specifications 
  • Different vehicle performance data 
  • Different fleet vehicle types and sizes 
  • Different fleet operation profiles 
  • Seasonal variation 
  • Impacts of auxiliary loads 
  • Changes in electrification profiles and targets
