Analyzes energy efficiency and emissions of buses in Naples, suggesting insights for sustainable transport planning.
This study analyzes and compares the energy and environmental performance of two technologies for urban public transportation: battery electric buses (BEVs) and hydrogen fuel cell buses (FCEVs). The objective is to evaluate efficiency and CO₂ emissions under realistic operating conditions. The analysis was carried out on three real urban routes located in the eastern area of the city of Naples. To achieve this goal, a numerical model was developed and implemented in MATLAB, capable of simulating vehicle dynamics with high temporal resolution. This approach enabled a detailed and reliable assessment, providing useful insights to support the planning of sustainable urban mobility solutions.
