Transforming electric bus depots into solar energy hubs

An international research team has used data on Beijing's public transit system to explore if bus depots could host solar installations and energy storage facilities to help reduce the load on the city's grid. The researchers say they plan to generalize their proposed model to help other areas estimate possible return on investment of transforming other civic infrastructure into energy hubs. An international research team led by the University of Utah has explored the potential of installing onsite solar power generation and energy storage at existing bus depots. The research is based on a case ...
