Introduction
BEB technology is mostly well understood and validated: the electric traction system, motor- inverter-mechanical transmission, is well understood. The battery , which represents some 25% of the cost of the bus, is the only subsystem that is still under development and that is critical to the successful deployment of BEBs. Cost, reliability, dependability of BEBs are largely dependent on battery performance and life .
