In the capital of Belarus plans to launch eco-friendly electric buses

Start of production of new energy sources - supercapacitors , as well as equipment and materials for rail intends one of the eight existing residents of the Belarusian-Chinese industrial park - "Chengdu Sindzhu Silk Road Development." "Now a resident of this land is made", - he told reporters the portal TUT.BY first deputy general director of "Company for the development of the industrial park" Cyril Koroteev.



According to the mayor of Minsk Andrew Shor, we are talking about the transfer of new technology "of the existing trolleybus-tram fleet." From the perspective of the Minsk transport workers, who are engaged in the organization of traffic, trolley efficiency is much higher, than tram released two strips to move to other modes of transport. "We will modernize infrastructure, remove this contact network and go in this direction", - added the mayor of Minsk.


Recall that in July this year in Ningbo (China) was put into operation the world's first Line public transport running on electric buses supercapacitors is charged at bus stops in just 10 seconds. These electric buses, thanks to the absence of emissions, low noise levels and the use of clean energy sources, are considered "green urban transport a new generation." To charge the electric bus does not require it to connect to high-voltage power lines. At a bus stop is set charging pillar from which electric bus gets enough electricity for as long as the landing of passengers carried. To fully charge must be no more than 10 seconds, a single charge lasts for 5 kilometers. Put into operation in Ningbo bus line length of 11 km has 24 stops. The capacitor electric bus can be charged a million times and operated for 10 years. In the next three years in Ningbo scheduled to release 1, 2 thous. Of electric buses that will be used in the city's public transport.


Also this summer, the Minsk Automobile Plant (MAZ) in Belarus began development of design documentation for the production of electric buses . A prototype should be ready by spring 2016.
We will try to continue to follow the development of this situation: when the data words and plans will materialize into concrete projects implemented.
