\u2019n Baanbrekende veelparty-samewerking tussen die akademiese w\u00eareld, regering en bedryfsvennote het gelei tot die suksesvolle omskakeling van \u2019n 65-sitplek dieselbus in \u2019n elektriese ekwivalent. Die projek is \u2019n belangrike stap vorentoe in Suid-Afrika se oorgang na volhoubare vervoer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die projek is ge\u00efnisieer, gefinansier en bestuur deur die Suid-Afrikaanse Nasionale Energie-ontwikkelingsinstituut (SANEDI), in vennootskap met die Universiteit Stellenbosch (US), Golden Arrow-busdienste, Rham Equipment, die departement wetenskap en innovasie en die departement elektrisiteit en energie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die bus is Vrydag (18 Oktober) simbolies aan Golden Arrow oorhandig by \u2019n geleentheid wat ook gedien het as die bekendstelling van die US se Elektriese Mobiliteitslaboratorium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die 2005-dieselbus het \u2019n volledige retro-herbouproses ondergaan waarin sy dieselenjin, ratkas en brandstoftenk met \u2019n elektriese motor, beheerelektronika en ho\u00ebkapasiteit-batterye vervang is. Ten spyte van die aansienlike meganiese opknapping, behou die bus dieselfde gewig as sy oorspronklike dieselweergawe en het padwaardigheidsertifisering behaal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Met \u2019n geskatte reikwydte van 200 km, sal die prototipe nou uitgebreide funksionele en prestasietoetsing ondergaan om sy lewensvatbaarheid vir daaglikse openbare vervoer te bepaal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die 2005-dieselbus het \u2019n volledige retro-herbouproses ondergaan waarin sy dieselenjin, ratkas en brandstoftenk met \u2019n elektriese motor, beheerelektronika en ho\u00ebkapasiteit-batterye vervang is.<\/div>\n

\u201cHierdie omskakelingsprojek is \u2019n belangrike mylpaal in ons pogings om skoner, volhoubaarder openbarevervoeroplossings te bevorder,\u201d het prof. Thinus Booysen, stigter van die Elektriese Mobiliteitslaboratorium in die US se Fakulteit Ingenieurswese, ges\u00ea. \u201cDeur bestaande dieselbusse om te skakel, demonstreer ons hoe elektriese mobiliteit by Suid-Afrika se vervoernetwerk ge\u00efntegreer kan word sonder dat heeltemal nuwe voertuigvlote nodig is. Dit is \u2019n praktiese, kostedoeltreffende benadering wat ook aansienlike omgewingsvoordele inhou.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Neville Smith, projekbestuurder by SANEDI, het ges\u00ea dat SANEDI met trots die projek ondersteun, want die organisasie glo die projek skep \u2019n presedent vir toekomstige grootskaalse elektriese bus-omskakelings in SA. \u201cDit is \u2019n belowende oplossing vir die vermindering van vrystellings in die vervoersektor, terwyl dit ook voldoen aan die dringende behoefte aan volhoubare infrastruktuur.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hierdie projek strook met die land se bre\u00ebr doelwitte om kweekhuisgasvrystellings en besoedeling in stede te verminder en afhanklikheid van fossielbrandstowwe te verminder. Die omskakeling van die bus is \u2019n uitstekende voorbeeld van die sirkul\u00eare ekonomie in aksie, waar bestaande voertuie hergebruik en opgegradeer word eerder as om in \u2019n skrootwerf te beland. Boonop hou die projek groot potensiaal in vir heropleiding van werkers in die motorbedryf namate die land na elektriese mobiliteit oorskakel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die omgeboude bus, wat by die US se Elektriese Mobiliteitsdag-viering as deel van Vervoermaand oorhandig is, sal in die komende maande streng toetsing ondergaan om sy werkverrigting, energieverbruik en betroubaarheid in werklike toestande te evalueer. Die toetse sal help om die tegnologie verder te verfyn en die skaalbaarheid daarvan vir toekomstige toepassings in openbare vervoer te bepaal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Terwyl die toetsfase voortduur, bly die konsortium van vennote daartoe verbind om SA se elektriese mobiliteitsektor te bevorder en nuwe geleenthede te ondersoek om die land se openbare vervoerstelsel te moderniseer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
