Project description
Charging Infrastructure Concept for a Climate-Friendly Future
In collaboration with our project partner, Salzburg Research, we identified the technical requirements for the respective bus types, their range, and the optimal locations for the charging infrastructure. Various scenarios were considered to ensure a reliable and efficient infrastructure for future e-bus operations.
Economic Feasibility Analysis for the Transition to E-Buses
The economic feasibility analysis assessed the investment, operational, and energy costs of electric buses compared to conventional diesel buses. Different charging and operational strategies were analyzed to identify the most economically viable solution for the region.
Our results provide a solid basis for public tendering and demonstrate that the transition to e-buses can be both ecologically and economically sustainable.
The project was funded within the framework of the European Digital Innovation Hub (EDIH) “Crowd in Motion” and offers pioneering support for sustainable mobility solutions in tourism.
