Climate change
Local conditions of air quality, noise, traffic congestion and road safety
Megatrends related to Demographic Growth, Urbanisation, Climate change, Resource scarcity, and Local conditions of air quality, noise, traffic congestions and road safety have an impact on the needs for sustainable urban transport solutions and urban planning.
In 2008, 1/2 of the world population lived in cities, in 2016 the same figure will be 2/3
In 2060 more than 50% of the cities in the world will have been built after 2010 (Penalosa)
At Volvo Buses (and Volvo Group), we see three rapid technology developments that accellerate the path forward:
Electromobility
Connectivity
Automation
Urbanisation
Resource scarcity

There is a big interest over the world for implementing electric public transport. Most cities see electric transport as one of the solutions needed to meet the challenges of increased pollution, noise and tougher environmental legislation.
In ascertaining sustainable public transport for the Smart City, you need to strategyze and plan for a mix of alternative drivelines and capacity needs
Volvo Buses approach is focused on hybrid, electric hybrid and full electric.
We are driving a new global industry standard – opportunity charging of electric vehicles. A collaboration with Siemens and ABB, rolled out in +12 markets
Solaris, Irizar, Heliox, VDL joining, and more are now new connecting
Several benefits including
No range limit
High utilization of charging infrastructure
Optimized system performance
Flexible distribution of consumption over day and night, and across geography
Since electric vehicles require an infrastructure, there are more stakeholders involved (Mayor, PTA, Energy Authority, Energy Provider, Operator etc) in the decision process. Volvo Buses works directly with this group of city stakeholders to facilitate the implementation of electric buses and the complete infrastructure system for it.
We have for instance signed agreeements with the cities of Curitiba, Edinburgh, Gothenburg, Montreal, Namur, Charleroi, Stockholm, Värnamo, Luxemburg and Hamburg regarding implementation of electric vehicles. Countries where we have major volumes of electric hybrids or full electric vehicles include UK, Colombia, Norway, Sweden, Germany, The Netherlands, Switzerland and Brazil
Volvo works directly with city stakeholders to implement new transport solutions based on electric vehicles
Addresses the challenges facing urban development
A complete system – vehicles, charging infrastructure, information services, maintenance, repairs
Guaranteed operation at specified cost per km
Reporting on fuel consumption and electric drive
Volvo offer includes a project manager with system responsibility and know how from earlier implementations

16. Creating new opportunities for urban planning
Bringing buses closer to passengers, opening up possibilities for bus routes in new areas to make cities more accessible
Enabling indoor bus traffic, improving passenger comfort and safety
Significantly reduces emissions and particles, improving air quality
Silent transport that eliminates noise, improving quality of life and increasing real estate values
Clean, emissions-free public transport can move buses closer to citizens – increasing the accessibility of the city
Silent mode of public transport does the same, anytime of the day or night
Improves quality of life and increasing real estate values while reducing noise
Opens up opportunities for new approaches in Smart City urban planning – Ongoing architect competition together with Volvo Buses and Sweco!

19. Charging systems evolution- short term
OppCharge will be used for automatized charging
CCS/Combo 2 will be used for charging with cable
Buses will by default have both charging options
In addition there is an onboard AC charger for workshop purposes

22. Electric roads – long term

23. Connectivity by Volvo Buses
Safer and smarter sustainable urban transport through the use of I(o)T
Vehicle to vehicle communication
Sensoring and pedestrian detection
Vehicle to infrastructure communication, such as Predictive Maintenance of Charging Systems or Zone Management
A data-driven Smart City will support quality public transport and vice-versa, creating a virtuous cycle
Vehicles communicate with each other for various purposes - safer and smarter sustainable urban transport through the use of IoT
Vehicles are already communicating with surrounding environments including gated zones - Enhance “zone management” for further differentiation of mandatory electric zones.
Improve the digital research platform
Develop connected bus stops
Improve visibility of charging systems as a first step towards optimization and predictive maintenance of charging systems
We are also introducing new safety solutions based on communication between the vehicle and the surroundings such as pedestrian and a cyclist detection system to improve the safety of unprotected road users - Test of pedestrian and cyclist detection system to improve the safety of unprotected road users on route 55 during 2017

25. Automation by Volvo Buses
Safety systems for driver assist, such as Volvo Dynamic Steering (VDS)
Bus Stop Docking for automatic positioning of buses at bus stops
Depot operations
Platooning
There is a trend towards automation within the bus industry.
We believe automation will improve efficiency and capacity in public transport in cities and lower costs.
There is also great potential in introducing platooning (bus trains) in BRT (bus rapid transit) systems.
Substantial Co2 reductions of 8-10% in highway platooning.
Incremental introduction of autonomous functions as technology evolves.
Volvo Dynamic Steering, a system which improves driver ergonomics and safety.
“Bus Stop Docking”, a concept for automatic positioning of buses at bus stops.

26. Urban growth requires buses
Even with automation of car traffic, traffic congestion and road safety requirements needs to be handled
Looking ahead, using a simple symbolic picture – urban growth requires buses for safe, smart and sustainable urban transport
Buses are great for the city environment, smart city planning, and excel in efficiency of capacity/energy/cost

83 % of passengers appriciate the free wifi.
85% use the USB chargers on the bus
8 out of 10 Passangaers like the indoor station.
