Abstract:This report summarizes the experience and early results from the American Fuel Cell Bus Project, a fuel cell electric bus demonstration funded by the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) under the National Fuel Cell Bus Program. A team led by CALSTART and SunLine Transit Agency developed a next-generation fuel cell electric bus for demonstration. The 40-foot ElDorado National transit bus features a BAE Systems series hybrid propulsion system powered by a Ballard Power Systems fuel cell and lithium iron phosphate batteries. The National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) has been tasked by FTA to evaluate the buses in service. This report documents the early development and implementation of the buses and summarizes the performance results through February 2013.
