Basic research on an electric fixed-route bus system with green fast charging at every bus stop using a simulator

In a sustainable city, public transportation is prohibited from emitting greenhouse gases. A vehicle running on electric power generated from a green energy source does not emit carbon dioxide (a major greenhouse gas) and is thus optimal for reducing greenhouse gas emissions. To pursue this goal, we...
