The global urban public transport sector is undergoing a profound electrification transformation. With the advancement of carbon neutrality goals and the growing demand for air quality improvement, more and more cities are taking bus electrification as a key measure for transportation emission reduction. From Nordic countries to emerging economies in Southeast Asia, the procurement volume of electric buses continues to rise, and some leading cities have achieved 100% electrification of their bus fleets. This shift has not only significantly reduced urban transportation carbon emissions but also brought quieter and more comfortable travel experiences to residents.
The rapid popularization of electric buses has put forward higher requirements for charging infrastructure. Traditional centralized charging stations can no longer meet the operational needs of large-scale electric bus fleets, and issues such as range anxiety and low operational efficiency caused by unreasonable charging facility layout have become increasingly prominent. By integrating the Internet of Things (IoT), big data, and intelligent scheduling technologies, intelligent charging networks can realize the optimal allocation and efficient utilization of charging facilities. Dynamic load regulation technology can balance power grid pressure, while intelligent reservation systems can avoid idle charging piles and queuing, significantly improving the operational efficiency of public transport.
Technological innovation is driving the diversified development of charging solutions. High-power fast-charging technology shortens the bus charging time to the duration of a coffee break, while the off-peak night charging mode greatly reduces electricity costs. Wireless charging and battery swapping modes, which are being piloted and promoted in some cities, provide more options for different operational scenarios. Progress has also been made in the integration of charging facilities with renewable energy; integrated designs such as photovoltaic canopies not only save land resources but also increase the proportion of green electricity usage.
The main challenges in charging network construction lie in the investment return cycle and the limitation of land resources. Innovative public-private partnership (PPP) models are addressing these issues. Some cities improve the economic viability of projects through value-added services such as profit sharing from charging service fees and advertising space operation. The advancement of smart city construction has also brought more possibilities for the integration of charging facilities; the co-construction and sharing model of charging piles with 5G base stations and smart light poles is being tested in multiple pilot cities.
The in-depth promotion of urban bus electrification in the future will require collaborative innovation in vehicle technology, charging facilities, and power grid systems. As intelligent charging networks continue to improve, the operational efficiency of electric buses will be further enhanced, and their usage costs are expected to keep decreasing. This development trend will not only accelerate the low-carbon transformation of urban transportation but also provide a practical model for the integrated development of smart energy and smart cities. It is foreseeable that a more intelligent, efficient, and green bus charging ecosystem will become a standard configuration for future cities.
