Alstom Transport selected Linkker 12+ Low Entry electric bus for its project in City of Malaga. The project is to test in real operational conditions Alstom’s new ground based fast charging connectivity system SRS.
The bus is equipped with a 55kWh LTO battery, SRS fast
charging connectivity solution and was commissioned in August for commercial
operation on line 1 in central Malaga. The bus is charging 20-30 times a day in
short bursts with 200kW power achieving daily mileage of more than 200km also
in very demanding Mediterranean conditions.
SRS charging connectivity system can be upgraded from
50kW to 800kW without any major technical changes. Aboard the vehicles, the
collector shoes are attached underneath vehicle’s chassis.
