En Alemania, la empresa de transportes HEAG mobilo de Darmstadt ha encargado 24 autobuses el\u00e9ctricos eCitaro a la filial de Daimler EvoBus, entre los que se incluyen once autobuses individuales y 13 articulados. La flota llegar\u00e1 a las cocheras de B\u00f6llenfalltor a partir del tercer trimestre de 2021 y sustituir\u00e1 a los veh\u00edculos di\u00e9sel m\u00e1s antiguos.<\/p>\n
Desde mediados de a\u00f1o, cinco personas de primera generaci\u00f3n eCitaro<\/a> veh\u00edculos ya han estado en servicio en las rutas de mobiBus de HEAG. Se espera que los refuerzos lleguen en la segunda mitad de 2021 y presten servicio en casi todas las l\u00edneas de Darmstadt y el distrito de Darmstadt-Dieburg. M\u00e1s de un tercio de toda la flota ser\u00e1 entonces el\u00e9ctrica, seg\u00fan la sede de la empresa. HEAG mobilo tiene previsto pasar por completo al funcionamiento el\u00e9ctrico en 2025.<\/p>\n La empresa de Darmstadt calcula que los costes de adquisici\u00f3n rondar\u00e1n los 16 millones de euros y que el gobierno federal aportar\u00e1 fondos por valor de 8,9 millones de euros hasta 2021. La empresa de transportes ya est\u00e1 preparando otras solicitudes: \"La pr\u00f3xima convocatoria de financiaci\u00f3n del Ministerio Federal de Transportes se publicar\u00e1 probablemente en noviembre; entonces volveremos a solicitar financiaci\u00f3n para las adquisiciones previstas en 2022 y 2023\", afirma Bettina Cl\u00fcsserath, de la direcci\u00f3n de HEAG mobilo.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" En Alemania, la empresa de transportes HEAG mobilo, de Darmstadt, ha encargado 24 autobuses el\u00e9ctricos eCitaro a la filial de Daimler EvoBus, entre los que se incluyen once autobuses individuales y 13 articulados.

With a battery capacity of 396 kWh, the eleven units will have a range of up to 225 kilometres. According to HEAG mobile, these can be charged at the depot within three hours at the 150 kW charging capacity. The battery configuration of the articulated buses that Daimler calls eCitaro G<\/a> is not yet fixed: “The range and capacity of the articulated buses depend on the battery system installed, which is currently still under negotiation,” the transport company writes.<\/p>\n For its imminent launch, the eCitaro G will rely on the same batteries as the 12-meter solo bus. “Probably before the end of this year”, however, the changeover to a new generation of NMC cells is to take place, increasing the capacity from 292 to 396 kWh. The Group also intends to offer solid-state batteries as an option.<\/p>\n “With the 24 new electric buses and the existing ones, we will be able to operate well over a third of our bus fleet electrically,” says Managing Director Matthias Kalbfuss. “Our first eCitaros have already covered around 30,000 kilometres in passenger service and have so far proved their worth”. The company welcomes the step-by-step conversion: “We are already benefiting from the technical development because the batteries of the new eCitaros have 108 kWh more capacity than the current vehicles,” says Co-Managing Director Michael Dirmeier. This also increases the range by 55 kilometres. “We assume that this trend will continue,” he says.<\/p>\n In terms of charging capacity, the local energy supplier Entega is currently upgrading the depot at B\u00f6llenfalltor with 28 150 kW chargers, each with two charging points, for which Entega is using solutions from Heliox. The company says that all of the depot chargers together deliver a total output<\/a> of 4.2 MW. One of two transformer stations was built in spring when a transfer station was installed. The second transformer station is to follow in October. The installation of an intelligent charging management system is also planned for mid-2021.<\/p>\n
