 The transition from diesel to electric buses reduces greenhouse gas emissions. To assess the feasibility of this energy transition, the impacts of charging strategies on the quality of bus services and the utility grid must be evaluated. A model was developed to investigate the performance of different locations and sizes of charging infrastructure. Simulations were conducted to estimate the potential benefits of a local photovoltaic, PV, production to reduce negative impacts on the utility grid. The proposed approach allowed for analysis of the impact of the charging process on the quality of bus services by determining the delays of arrivals. Additionally, the impacts of charger placement on bus onboard battery capacity, total peak power demand of battery charging, and PV self-consumption ratio were determined. Although the amount of PV energy used to charge buses remained low, it could be sufficient with additional stationary storage in the summer.
