Electric Bus Market Size
Electric Bus Market is expected to reach 448.920 Thousand Units with CAGR 17.89%by the end of 2031
WILMINGTON, DELAWARE, USA, July 11, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ -- According to the report, the global electric bus market is projected to reach 448.920 thousand units by 2031, expanding at a CAGR of 17.89% during the forecast period. Hydrogen fuel cell buses are powered by combining the powertrain with fuel cell systems, controlled technology, and batteries. Such buses are regarded as the next generation of green vehicles, as they possess an extended lifespan as compared to e-buses. Rise in adoption of hydrogen fuel cell buses is estimated to offer significant opportunities for the market during the forecast period. Hydrogen fuel cell buses possess route flexibility as well as a fast refueling speed. These benefits have significantly boosted the demand for such buses for public transport systems.

Expansion of Global Electric Bus Market
Electric hybrid buses have proven to offer a significant increase in fuel economy, as compared to standard diesel buses. In fact, according to the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), hybrid buses offer an average 37% higher fuel economy improvement than that offered by conventional diesel buses. A significant benefit of electric-drive buses is their improved performance. These vehicles provide a quieter and smoother ride, as compared to buses with more traditional ICE engines, providing passengers a more enjoyable ride.
Electric Bus Market Segmentation
In terms of bus length, the 10-12 meter segment accounted for a notable share of the global electric bus market. However, the 12-15 meter segment is expected to gain market share by the end of the forecast period owing to the large volumes of electric passenger buses used in public transport fleet. Most public transport fleets, especially in China, which accounts for almost 99% of the market, have electric buses that are 12–15 m in length. Furthermore, several market leading OEMs such as BYD, Proterra, and Yutong have been providing electric buses in the 12-15 m length range. BYD offers K8 and K9 electric buses between 12 m and 15 m in length and a range of 155 miles and 190 miles. It also offers C8 and C9 transit buses with a range of 125 miles and 155 miles, respectively.
In terms of battery type, the lithium ion- phosphate battery segment held a prominent share of the electric bus market in North America, in terms of volume, in 2020. The average price of Li-ion battery packs for large orders declined from approximately $600 per kilowatt-hour (kWh) in 2015 to approximately $150/kWh in 2020. Any decline in the battery price would help automotive OEMs cut down the price of the vehicles, as the battery accounts for around 40% of the electric bus manufacturing cost, thereby boosting their sales. Additionally, the battery capacity is likely to increase, owing to technological advancements, which, in turn, is estimated to help cater to the demand for a longer driving range. Thus, manufacturers are consistently working toward achieving a higher energy density and lower reliance on cobalt, an expensive raw material used in these batteries. This, in turn, would increase the operational efficiency of these batteries and lower their cost, respectively, thus, ultimately, boosting bus sales. This acts one of the key drivers in the electric bus market.

The batteries of current electric buses have low capacities with long charging durations and limited range per charge. The performance and service life of batteries directly affect the performance and the cost of electric buses. Presently, batteries used to power electric buses are lead-acid, nickel cadmium, nickel metal hydride, lithium-ion, and super capacitors. Lithium-ion batteries are gradually replacing lead-acid, nickel cadmium, and nickel metal hydride batteries in electric buses, as they offer a longer battery life. However, the capacity of lithium-ion batteries is too low to power commercial vehicles, such as electric buses, as the heavy loads require more power to create maximum torque. In cold climates, the charging-discharging performance of batteries declines significantly, making it difficult for batteries to provide maximum power. The time required to charge an electric bus with the equipment available currently in the market is very long, leading to wastage of time. The average time required to charge an electric vehicle from 0% to 100% with a 7 kW charging point is more than 4 hours. Moreover, most of the charging infrastructure is equipped with low-capacity chargers. These challenges must be addressed in order to boost the electric bus market.
