4 PRIMOVE true e-mobility The future of mobility is e-mobility As societies face growing pressure to reduce CO 2 emissions and find solutions to ongoing urbanization, the timing for clean and more sustainable forms of mobility is right. Increasing emissions, populations and urban congestion are impacting the environment and everyone s quality of life. Lively hubs of commerce and culture, cities naturally attract people. Today about 50% of the world s population already lives in or around cities. By 2050, this number could reach as high as 70%. The implications for mobility in cities are profound. The need to look ahead and deliver easily accessible, efficient, quiet and green transportation door-todoor, has never been greater. With public pressure mounting, many countries and cities have already committed to meeting CO 2 reduction targets and introducing quality-of-life improvement initiatives. To meet these targets, a new approach to mobility is required. Government and municipal authorities, public transit operators, vehicle manufacturers and the general public are now ready for change a change that will come through e-mobility. It is key to shifting from fossil fuels to cleaner energy sources. Leveraging 100 years of experience To be truly effective, e-mobility must be convenient, practical and cost effective. In this respect, rail transportation provides an excellent model. This more than 100-year-old form of electric mobility produces significantly lower CO 2 emissions than other modes of motorized transportation. The PRIMOVE e-mobility portfolio offers vehicle manufacturers and operators a flexible package of sophisticated solutions for both electric rail and road vehicles. It includes: PRIMOVE charging PRIMOVE battery PRIMOVE propulsion and controls At Bombardier, we are extending vehicle electrification and its benefits beyond rail.

5 PRIMOVE true e-mobility Growing our PRIMOVE e-mobility portfolio The portfolio began with the PRIMOVE wireless charging system. It provides a contactless power source for all electric vehicles, from light rail and bus networks to commercial vehicles and cars. We then developed the PRIMOVE battery for public transport vehicles, enabling high power recharging at the lowest weight and volume currently on the market. Building on our success in supplying propulsion, traction and control units for rail vehicles, the PRIMOVE propulsion and controls solution was up next. It features the new BOMBARDIER* MITRAC* power equipment for enhancing the overall efficiency of electric buses. In Mannheim, Germany, our e-mobility Centre of Competence is driving this rapidly evolving PRIMOVE e-mobility portfolio from testing to commercialization.

6 PRIMOVE charging Change the way to charge In developing PRIMOVE wireless charging, we started with a vision, imagining a city where all vehicles are electric, emission-free and quiet. No pollution, no fumes, no noise. We had a vision of one e-mobility technology for all types of rail and road vehicles: trams, buses, trucks, vans and cars; without catenaries, cables, wires or plugs completely invisible and automatic. We imagined electric vehicles that don t change our driving habits or journey times. And from that vision, we created a system that is available now. It s called PRIMOVE wireless charging. Jérémie Desjardins, Business Leader PRIMOVE 6 The technology behind PRIMOVE charging PRIMOVE wireless charging is based on high power inductive energy transfer between components buried underground and receiving equipment installed beneath the vehicle. Wayside components communicate with the vehicle to start the contactless charging process automatically as soon as the vehicle completely covers the charging segment. The invisible system transfers energy without contact at very high levels of efficiency. E-vehicles can be charged rapidly and seamlessly either in motion (dynamic charging) or at rest (static charging) without the need for extra fleet vehicles or batteries. By eliminating the overhead cables and other wires previously needed to power electric vehicles, mass transit networks can now blend in with their surroundings. City landmarks, parks and heritage sites are left intact, minimizing visual pollution and enhancing the city s overall charm. Why chose PRIMOVE wireless charging? Flexible and fast: Mass transit networks, fleet operators and car owners can now benefit from all the advantages of e-powered mobility, without experiencing the range and recharging constraints usually associated with electric charging. The concept of fast opportunity charging at very high levels of efficiency allows seamless integration into existing operations and uninterrupted service. Convenient and automatic: Intelligent vehicle detection makes the recharging process fully automatic, driver friendly and hassle free, with no specific qualifications or training necessary for use. Invisible and clean: No more catenaries, cables, wires or plugs! Contactless energy transfer between components installed under the road and under the floor of the vehicle enables PRIMOVE vehicles to operate without cluttering cities. Urban planners and public transit operators have more freedom over the design of urban mobility solutions. Emissions and noise are also minimized, allowing cities to breathe. The result? Quieter, cleaner, more attractive cities.

7 PRIMOVE charging Reliable and easy: PRIMOVE wireless charging is robust, weatherproof and tamperproof. It operates reliably even in the most adverse ground and weather conditions including sand, snow and ice. With prefabricated and tested modules, the system is quickly and easily installed on both new and existing rail or road infrastructure. Designed for optimal health and safety The PRIMOVE charging system is designed to ensure full passenger, driver, operational staff and pedestrian health and safety. The charging segments are switched on when the vehicle is positioned directly above them. In this way, electromagnetic fields are only created during charging and fully contained under the vehicle. Competitive and efficient: By maximizing the concept of high power opportunity charging, the PRIMOVE system reduces total cost of ownership (TCO). PRIMOVE batteries are designed to meet urban transit needs and ensure long battery life. Unlike large batteries, their compact size has no impact on vehicle passenger capacity. Vehicle availability also remains unaffected thanks to the rapid charging process. Together this means no need to increase the size of your fleet. Wayside infrastructure and maintenance are also kept to a minimum, while wear, tear and the risk of vandalism are eliminated. Supported by TÜV SÜD for safe operation, PRIMOVE complies with all applicable requirements for electromagnetic field (EMF) emissions in public areas. The system also meets relevant electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) standards, ensuring no impact on modern heart pacemakers and electrical devices such as mobile phones. 7

8 PRIMOVE charging Fast opportunity charging: no compromise on performance Range and recharging constraints are the key concerns for converting from conventional diesel and combustion engines to electric power. The PRIMOVE charging system addresses these issues with a solution that is light, competitive and easy to integrate by combining opportunity charging with fast energy transfer at high power levels. Seamless integration of the charging process into existing operations ensures uninterrupted service without any need for additional fleet vehicles or batteries. PRIMOVE tram: freedom from overhead lines In many ways, trams and light rail vehicles are the ultimate form of e-mobility. Yet despite being clean and convenient, they have always been hampered by one disadvantage catenaries. With PRIMOVE inductive charging, light rail vehicles can now run without the need for unsightly poles and overhead lines. The energy source is moved underground which means trams can be integrated into urban areas where conventional catenary networks are prohibited or unwelcome. Fast opportunity charging for trams Charging segments are installed at tram stops, subsequent metres and challenging sections. The combination of dynamic and static charging enables continuous operation and reduces infrastructure investments. Battery charge levels along tram line 8

9 PRIMOVE charging PRIMOVE e-bus: competitive with conventional buses The bus market is exploring alternatives to combustion-driven vehicles. Unfortunately, few of these approaches offer a sustainable solution to our dependence on fossil fuel. More often than not, they involve serious compromises in cost, vehicle availability, service reliability and aesthetics. In essence, these solutions fail to address the key issue of making the electric bus market competitive and attractive. PRIMOVE wireless charging succeeds where others fail. It is easy to install, convenient to use and competitive in price. It incorporates high power charging at the most convenient points along bus routes. Equipped with lighter, smaller, long-life batteries, PRIMOVE e-buses provide reliable service at maximum passenger capacity while minimizing infrastructure. Battery charge levels along e-bus line Fast opportunity charging for e-buses Charging stations are strategically positioned in the depot, at end stops and en route at selected bus stops for recharging while letting passengers on and off without extended dwell times. The wireless charging process is seamlessly integrated into operations to allow uninterrupted service, optimum fleet availability and maximized efficiency. PRIMOVE e-car: e-mobility unplugged With virtually all electric devices now going wireless, it makes little sense to keep electric road vehicles tied to charging plugs. Plugging is both inconvenient and unsuitable for very high power energy transfer. In the electric automotive market, the main barriers to entry are fears about range constraints and the hassle associated with plug-in systems. For commercial fleets, vehicle availability and service reliability are even more crucial to success. That is why PRIMOVE high power charging is designed around existing operations and driver preferences to provide easy e-mobility for delivery vans, taxis, private cars and more. It is fully automatic and available at various energy levels for different sized automobiles. Fast opportunity charging for e-cars For fast charging at convenient times, charging points are integrated where vehicles typically stop along their route and at overnight parking locations. Charging points include loading docks for delivery vans, taxi waiting areas, depots for car-sharing pools as well as private and company garages. 9
