"This operation has been documented in previous evaluation reports from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL). This report continues the evaluation at AC Transit; however, the funding for NREL's data collection and analysis has been transitioned from DOE to the Federal Transit Administration (FTA). Specifically, this report provides results of AC Transit's accelerated testing of its existing three fuel cell buses as part of FTA's National Fuel Cell Bus Program (NFCBP)"--p.iv
Summary This is an evaluation of hydrogen fuel cell transit buses operating at AC Transit in revenue service since March 20, 2006 compared to similar diesel buses operating from the same depot. This evaluation report includes results from November 2007 through October 2008. Evaluation results include implementation experience, fueling station operation, fuel cell bus operations at Golden Gate Transit, and evaluation results at AC Transit (bus usage, availability, fuel economy, maintenance costs, and roadcalls).
Bibliography Includes bibliographical references (p. 37-38).
Funding Performed by National Renewable Energy Laboratory in association with Battelle for Federal Transit Administration, Office of Research, Demonstration, and Innovation.
