Electrification and fast recharge of buses for public transportation in urban areas involve a high reliability of installed storage and recharge systems. Performed mission profiles stress the system with a relatively high mileage and repeated acceleration and braking cycles. Authors have simulated and designed different storage and recharge technologies that have been installed and tested on a fleet of revamped electric minibus. In this work, attention is focused on design and simulation of a bus equipped with high-power lithium batteries. Proposed storage is recharged by a fast station fed by a flywheel system. In this work authors describe the proposed solution and its advantages. The description of the whole activity is performed with a particular attention to implementation and to experimental results of activities performed at ENEA laboratories of Roma Casaccia (Italy).

Abstract
Electrification and fast recharge of buses for public transportation in urban areas involve a high reliability of installed storage and recharge systems. Performed mission profiles stress the system with a relatively high mileage and repeated acceleration and braking cycles.

In this work, attention is focused on design and simulation of a bus equipped with high-power lithium batteries. Proposed storage is recharged by a fast station fed by a flywheel system. In this work authors describe the proposed solution and its advantages.
