Long Beach Transit: Two-Year Evaluation of Gasoline-Electric Hybrid Transit Buses.

DE2008934388

Publication Date	2008
Personal Author	Lammert, M.
Page Count	28
Abstract	This report focuses on a gasoline-electric hybrid transit bus propulsion system. The propulsion system is an alternative to standard diesel buses and allows for reductions in emissions (usually focused on reductions of particulate matter and oxides of nitrogen) and petroleum use. Gasoline propulsion is an alternative to diesel fuel and hybrid propulsion allows for increased fuel economy, which ultimately results in reduced petroleum use.
