摘要: In early 2007, the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) published a preliminary evaluation results report (April through November 2006) on hydrogen fuel cell and diesel buses operating at Alameda-Contra Costa Transit District (AC Transit) in Oakland, California. This report provides an update to the previous report and includes results and experience from December 2006 through August 2007. The evaluation covers three prototype fuel cell buses and six diesel baseline buses operating from the same AC Transit bus depot. In March 2006, AC Transit kicked off the demonstration of three prototype fuel cell buses. The development of the fuel cell buses is the result of collaboration between ISE Corporation, UTC Power, and Van Hool. The buses use the PureMotion 120 Fuel Cell Power System manufactured by UTC Power in a hybrid electric drive system designed by ISE. The energy storage in this hybrid system consists of three ZEBRA (sodium/nickel chloride, high temperature) batteries. This evaluation of prototype fuel cell transit buses at AC Transit is part of the U.S. Department of Energys (DOE) Hydrogen, Fuel Cells & Infrastructure Technologies Program (HFCIT). This program integrates activities in hydrogen production, storage, and delivery with transportation and stationary fuel cell applications. The evaluation focuses on documenting progress and opportunities for improving the vehicles, infrastructure, and operating procedures. There is no intent to consider the implementation of these hydrogen-fueled fuel cell transit buses as commercial (or full revenue transit service). / Supplementary Notes: Sponsored by Battelle Columbus Div., OH. and Department of Energy, Washington, DC.
