Gradual fleet electrification by 2030In 2018 RVBW’s Board of Directors decided to gradually transition to a full electric bus fleet by 2030 «We will phase out existing diesel-powered buses which have reached the end of their service life and replace those with new electric buses Urban routes are best suited for electrification and will therefore be prioritized.» However with the acquisition of new buses and the installation and expansion of charging options bus operation will become increasingly complex and working processes will need to be adapted to the new circumstances and a local partner with industry expertise like ABB is needed Drivetrain solution provided by ABBFor line 5 RVBW acquired four electric buses from Swiss bus manufacturer HESS These low-floor buses of the type «lighTram» measure 12 meters in length and feature ABB drive technology – specifically a permanent magnet motor that is powered by a traction inverter The energy storage system mounted on the roof is also provided by ABB manufactured in ABB’s production site in Baden that was opened at the end of 2019 Increased passenger spaceThis roof installation creates additional space in the passenger compartment One bus can now carry up to 100 passengers meaning an increase in passenger capacity by 30% compared with the previously used conventional buses ABB charging stations installed at final stopsThe energy storage systems of the buses are recharged with an ABB fast-charging station at the final stops of the bus line at «Baldegg» and «Äusserer Berg» The Pantograph Down system enables a quick and efficient charge of the electric bus by descending the pantograph from the charging station and connecting to the energy storage system via rails on the roof of the bus The energy storage is charged with 300 kilowatts for two to four minutes depending on the bus schedule without impacting the normal operation of the route Optimally dimensioned depot charging solutionThe buses are fully charged overnight in the depot for which ABB has provided two charging stations of type HVC 100 with two charge boxes each They sequentially charge the buses with an output of 100 kilowatts The bus drivers connect the four buses to the depot charge boxes during the night when the bus is not operating One charging station first charges one bus This means that each bus does not require its own charging station and the grid connection can be optimized because the buses are not charged at the same time ABB chosen as partner for the overall project«The electric buses are equipped with ABB drive technology so we also chose ABB to supply the charging solutions and be our partner for the overall project» ABB entered the EV charging market in 2010 and is a leading supplier of charging stations Products include alternating current wall boxes for home installation and direct current quick-charge stations for highway rest stops and charging solutions for e-trucks and electric buses. 400 tons of CO2 savings per year«With the transition of line 5 to full electric operation we will save 155,000 liters of diesel fuel and around 410 tons of CO2 every year» emphasizing the ecological benefits of the electrification Regionalwerke AG Baden (RWB) is supplying power to this line sourced from regional hydropower. Financial contribution by Canton of AargauThe Canton of Aargau is contributing almost 1.5 million francs from the special financing of public transport infrastructure to the investment costs for the charging infrastructure of Baden Line 5 ABB's website uses cookies.

There were some really hard hits and solid defense as well. We also saw some awesome “shake and bake” scoring opportunities. Wettingen got over the line this time and walked away with the win. We are a developing lacrosse nation working very hard to catch up to the rest of the world We’ve got a mix of rookies and some experienced players but everyone has the same two goals – Grow the Game and be the best we can We will do whatever it takes to get more experience and if this means travelling long distances to different countries for scrimmage matches then we’ll do it The Swiss men’s competition is a little bigger. There are now seven men’s teams and two leagues (Division 1 and 2) and it’s growing by the day. The men’s National Team Squad will commence training in May preparing for the 2014 Denver World Games. passionate and love the game just the like the rest of the Lacrosse world For more information about Lacrosse in Switzerland visit www.swisslax.ch The Wettingen women’s lacrosse team was founded in 2007 and was one of the first women’s teams in Switzerland Since then it has continuously grown and now has about 30 members Currently the women’s lacrosse league in Switzerland consists of four active teams, Wettingen, Zürich, Chur and St. Gallen with teams developing in Basel and Bern. Since the sport is relatively new in Switzerland and the opponents are few the team often travels to tournaments in the surrounding countries where they usually rank amongst the top 6 and they also seek to play against foreign teams as often as possible They always appreciate new opponents from which they can learn to play better lacrosse Their goal is not only to keep being the best team in Switzerland but also to continuously improve their game and to be able to establish themselves as a force to be reckoned with outside of Switzerland They also help develop other teams in Switzerland to help the sport grow and hope to gain more players every year the women’s lacrosse team from Wettingen travelled to Tübingen to play against the german team Neckarnixen Before the game the two teams held a practice together where the players had an opportunity to get to know each other better and to get used to the weather and the turf conditions before the actual game As it was below zero temperatures and it was snowing, the two teams agreed to play 3x20min games. For the Wettingen team this was a great learning opportunity to play against a different and more experienced team and it was viewed as practice to prepare for the coming season in which they expect to defend their national title. This game was a chance to see where their weaknesses lie so they can work on them before the season begins and to try out new plays Also newer players were introduced to the game and could play their first game without the pressure of having to win which Wettingen lost with a final score of 5:8 The team had a lot of fun and really enjoyed playing against the Neckarnixen They are looking forward to welcoming them in Wettingen soon for a rematch You have successfully submitted your enquiry Someone from our company will respond ASAP Gutor Electronic has more than 45 years' experience providing uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems for the oil and gas Gutor has been part of Schneider Electric since 2007 Votre adresse e-mail ne sera pas publiée Champs requis marqués avec * and website in this browser for the next time I comment Prévenez-moi de tous les nouveaux commentaires par e-mail Δdocument.getElementById( "ak_js_1" ).setAttribute( "value" This site uses Akismet to reduce spam.
