Hengtong Bus Company Keeps Exploring Fast-charging Mode
21 August 2012
www.chinabuses.org:Exploration on energy supplies of pure-electric buses mainly focuses on trickle charge and battery replacement. Fast-charging harmful to battery is still in dispute. However, Hengtong Company keeps exploiting fast-charging mode and makes some achievements.
Compared with mainstream LFP battery, lithium titanium fast-charging battery is faster in charging and longer in service life, but weaker in specific energy and specific power.
Last year Hengtong used six fast-charging new-energy buses in Chongqing for demo run. There have been over 30 fast-charging city buses used in Yubei airport and there will be 100 more this year.
Except for pure-electric buses, Hengtong is working on fast-charging plug-in hybrid bus, which is equipped with lithium titanate battery. A 110Kw charging pile or auto charging device is built in origin station or terminal and 5-10 minutes charging makes the pure-electric bus run 10km.
