The time they spend at the depot overnight \u2013 or during longer breaks \u2013 is ideal for charging electric bus batteries. This charging methos is known as <strong><em>depot charging<\/em><\/strong>. As battery technology advances, the range of electric buses continuous to grow, allowing daily routes to be completed without the need for midday recharging. This makes overnight depot charging the simplest and efficient way to power e-bus fleet.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Depot charging is usually carried out using lower output power (approx. 50\u2013150 kW). For this reason, depot charging is often referred to as slow charging. It is most commonly done via plug-in systems \u2013 using stationary chargers installed in the depot or mobile chargers. Pantograph charging is used less frequently.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A complementary technology to depot charging is <strong><em>opportunity charging, <\/em><\/strong>or fast charging, using higher power levels. In this model, the charging infrastructure is located along the bus lines \u2013 you can read more about it <a href=\"https:\/\/ecity.solarisbus.com\/en\/knowledge-base\/opportunity-charging\">HERE<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Overnight depot charging is the simplest and most efficient way to power the e-bus fleet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":3359,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[31],"tags":[44,90,92,89],"class_list":["post-4880","baza-wiedzy","type-baza-wiedzy","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-charging","tag-charging","tag-e-mobility-en","tag-electric-buses","tag-electromobility-en"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.0 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Depot charging - eCity powered by Solaris<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Overnight depot charging is the simplest and most efficient way to power the e-bus fleet.
