1 Public transport with buses requirements - the next generation activities of the VDV Martin Schmitz Technical Director VDV Coordinato da: Organizzato da: gennaio 2014

2 Association of German Transport Companies (VDV) The VDV has existed in its present form since the beginning of The history of the VDV began in 1846 As a sector association the VDV represents the interests of about 600 member companies active in the fields of public passenger transport and rail freight transport. Main performance of the VDV for its members: Development of technical solutions, uniform rules and recommendations, in cooperation with the transport industry and transport science Advising and supporting parliaments, governments and other bodies at the European, Federal, State and municipal levels Exchange and cooperation between the members 2

3 Development of passenger transport Passengers (mil.) Road passenger transport (BUS + TRAM) Railway passenger transport (PTR) Change 2012/2011 (mil.) Total (BUS + TRAM + PTR) 3

4 Increase in the income through ticket sale Change 2012/2011 Road passenger transport (BUS + TRAM) Railway passenger transport (PTR) Total (BUS + TRAM + PTR) (mil. euros) 4

5 Overview of VDV s organisation 5

6 VDV general committees and VDV expert committees VDV general committees VDV expert committees Legal matters and economy Marketing and communication Personnel management Price formation and sale Rail construction Railway operation Freight transport Nontechnical railway infrastructure matters Industrial railways Operation Railway vehicles Customer service, information and dialogue Urban rail rolling stock Competitive questions conc. railway passenger transport specialized on Bus topics Depots and workshops Railways of public ports Telematics and information systems Bus technology Orderer market Electrical power installations Information processing Transport association issues 6

7 Objectives and tasks of the technical committees Technical Rules State of the art To describe technical and operational requirements and processes as well as to harmonise these requirements with the supervisory authorities (formerly regulations) To realise national and international requirements To influence national and European technical regulation and standardisation To describe technical and operational requirements and processes in VDV Recommendations and to adapt them continuously to the state of the art To realise national and international requirements To influence national and European technical regulation and standardisation Tendering To generate competition via joint open requirements (VDV Recommendations) To harmonise the technical and operational requiremnts with the manufacturers Information ofvdv members To prepare topical technical and operational information to members (VDV Reports) To arrange events informing about the current technical and political development To provide education and training 7

8 Example: Structure of the Committee on Bus Technology Committee on Bus Technology Preparation of sector-wide standards for optimal line-service bus technology in consideration of technical, ecological, operational and economic aspects Subjects: Motor vehicle technology, development and standardisation Conventional and alternative vehicle drives as well as conventional and alternative kinds of fuel Electric mobility and its infrastructure (incl. hybrid, battery, hydrogen and trolleybus technology) Life-cycle costing and economic efficiency Automated diagnostic procedures Registration and evaluation of current vehicle defects ( Central Reporting System ) Vehicle technology of guided bus systems German Road Traffic Licensing Regulations and the equivalent international regulations Subcommittee on Vehicle Drives Subcommittee on Quality and Design Subcommittee on Defects 8

9 Work result and realisation of the work of the Subcommittee on Defects The Subcommittee on Defects prepares information about defects of buses of the VDV member companies. This information is collected, summed up and passed on to the vehicle manufacturers. The reports on defects are handed over to the bus manufacturers (EvoBus, MAN and Solaris) by vehicle godparents six weeks before the half-yearly meeting for their opinion. 9

10 VDV publications Books: Introduction to the Technology of Line-Service Buses) Public Service Bus Systems with Electric Propulsion Potential for Emission-Free Mobility Mobility in Small and Medium-Sized Towns by Urban Bus Line-Service Buses passenger-friendly economic low-emission Recommendations: VDV 230 Basic Recom. for Urban Low-Floor Line-Services Buses VDV 234 Driver s Workplace in the Low-Floor Line-Service Bus VDV 236 Air Conditioning of Line-Service Buses VDV 237 Basic Recom. for Regional High-Floor Line-Service Buses More than 4,000 VDV Recommendations were sold in 2013! 10

11 Requirements for buses - VDV 230 High degree of standardisation in technical descriptions (e.g. VDV driver s workplace) Demography passengers get older, which requires variable passenger compartments: prams, wheelchairs, bikes etc. No barriers boarding, ticketing Higher quality: as regards punctuality (reliability of the technology), information etc. Cost effectiveness (TCO) purchase price, maintenance, consumption etc. Lower consumption (light weight construction, cogeneration of power and heat, hybrid, electrical auxiliary equipment, increase in on-board power supply to 48 V (reduction of losses and generators etc.)) Online diagnosis can be integrated into the workshop administration Coordination between operators and industry Less noise 11

12 Requirements for buses - VDV 230 0,36 Euro 1 (1992) 0,15 Euro 2 (1998) 0,10 Euro 3 (2000) 0,02 Euro 5 (2009) Euro 4 (2006) 0,01 0 Euro 6 (2013) 0,4 2 3, Nitrogen oxide emission NO X [g/kwh] 12

13 Requirements for buses - VDV 230 : Line/operation management Internal combustion engine Parallel hybrid Serial hybrid Range extender : Diesel, CNG, LPG, H 2 : Adaptive switching programmes Fuel cell Electric battery mobility : Intermediate charging (inductive, ultra-caps, overhead contact line, flywheel) source: Prof.Dr.Pütz : Energy storage changing systems 13

14 Multimodality The power supply infrastructure is used to charge all kinds of electric vehicles. AC and DC power is available and allows charging of electric buses, bikes, private cars, taxis and utility vehicles. Source: FGSV - Prof. Dr.-Ing. Felix Huber 14
