El estado de Berl\u00edn y el operador de transporte p\u00fablico BVG siguen adelante con la fase de aumento de la adquisici\u00f3n de autobuses el\u00e9ctricos y van a comprar otros 90 VE. El fabricante polaco Solaris se ha hecho con el contrato y realizar\u00e1 las entregas a partir de la primavera de 2020.<\/p>\n
El Consejo de Supervisi\u00f3n de BVG dio luz verde al pedido a principios de junio, pero tuvo que esperar dos semanas antes de anunciar el proveedor, Solaris. El nuevo pedido casi triplicar\u00e1 la cuota de autobuses el\u00e9ctricos de BVG en el pr\u00f3ximo a\u00f1o hasta un total de unos 140 veh\u00edculos el\u00e9ctricos.<\/p>\n
Los autobuses Solaris del tipo Nuevo Urbino 12 El\u00e9ctrico, ya conocidos del primer lote, tienen 12 metros de longitud y ofrecen espacio para unos 70 pasajeros. Novedades en los 90 autobuses encargados ahora: La calefacci\u00f3n es exclusivamente el\u00e9ctrica.<\/p>\n
Seg\u00fan un comunicado de BVG, los autobuses el\u00e9ctricos se cargar\u00e1n principalmente en las cocheras. Sin embargo, la carga en oportunidad puede maximizar su kilometraje diario, superando as\u00ed \"con creces\" la autonom\u00eda nominal. En la operaci\u00f3n de prueba, los veh\u00edculos del primer lote ya alcanzaron tiempos de funcionamiento de 16 horas diarias, seg\u00fan la empresa.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

With the now announced charging at stations, the operator has reacted to criticism from the past weeks. Because they allegedly do not reach the targeted range, the buses are only in half-day operation, after which they have to go to the depot for charging, according to several media outlets. Also, the frequent stop-and-start in dense traffic has increased electric vehicles’ consumption. Hardly a surprise in Berlin’s city traffic, however.<\/p>\n
The costs for the 90 new vehicles, including the required charging infrastructure, are estimated at around 61 million euros. According to the BVG, the Federal Transport and Environment Ministries will probably support procurement with about 14 million euros.<\/p>\n
BVG has been shopping around<\/a> lately with Solaris having been an early contender. BVG\u00a0has been reportedly<\/a> running a trial with four electric buses from the Polish maker since 2015. Moreover, as\u00a0reported<\/a>, the BVG formed a buying community with Hamburg Hochbahn to increase their bargaining power with larger order volumes. Hamburg Hochbahn\u00a0recently opted<\/a>\u00a0to procure electric buses from both Daimler and Solaris.<\/p>\n
