Long Beach Transit
All-Electric Bus Recommendation
Board Meeting
February 25, 2013
![Page 2: LBT Staff Recommendation for Electric Bus Project, 02/25/13](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022042814/552cb84b4a7959c37c8b47b1/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
LBT Project Goals
1. Assess risk for a viable, effective & reliable all-
electric ZEB to address alternative fuel policy
2. Achieve reliable, safe & environmentally sound
service levels that are equal to or greater than the
current fleet
3. Introduce appealing, iconic all-electric buses that
increase ridership, improve the transit experience,
and enhance the image of Long Beach and LBT
4. Deploy all-electric buses that provide a cost-
effective solution for LBT (life-cycle costing)
5. Support FTA’s TIGGER goals by maximizing
reductions in GHG emissions and energy costs

Modeling Tools
Route Modeling – CTE collected route data and developed model to
determine energy requirements
– Factors battery size, motor size, vehicle weight,
speed, distance, grade, time, etc.
Rate Modeling – CTE established an energy cost model
– Based on SCE Rates and amount of charging at
given times of day, week, season, etc.
Established a basis to evaluate energy cost
& performance of proposed solutions

Evaluation Process
LBT - 3 Evaluation Teams – One lead & up to 4 subject matter experts
– A total of 14 LBT employees read and discussed
proposal providing input on same
CTE provided technical evaluation – Technical overview of each proposal
– Modeled each proposal to assess performance on
LBT’s Passport route
– Calculated annual energy costs for each proposal
based on Rate Model
