Taking part in a BUS2BUS event has probably never been so easy. It takes two minutes to fill out the registration form, after which you can take part in the entire program. If you haven’t made a choice of BUS2Explore sessions yet, or don’t want to decide on particular times, then simply click all of them. The BUS2BUS Special Edition lets you be flexible and spontaneous. After registration you will receive a confirmation link and can familiarisze yourself with the platform. In the top right-hand corner you can switch from German to English, for example. Want to be there too? We look forward to seeing you there.

The BUS2BUS Special Edition will kick off on 15 April at 10 a.m. (CET) with informative discussions and high-profile guests from politics, business and science. At 11.30 a.m. all eyes will be on the innovations and companies combining business success with socially responsible and environmental awareness that will be about to win the coveted International Sustainability Award. After the presentation, at 1.30 p.m. BUS2Explore will feature three interactive sessions with a focus on the transition to sustainable mobility. At BUS2Insights, part four of the event, we look forward to welcoming our partners Alexander Dennis Germany GmbH, Allnet GmbH/ Rosho GmbH, ioki GmbH, Otokar Europe, Trapeze Switzerland GmbH and Vector Informatik GmbH, who are actively contributing to the BUS2BUS Special Edition 2021 and will present on-demand videos highlighting their innovations. Full details of the program can be found on our website.

Don’t miss this opportunity to exchange the latest ideas on eco-friendly mobility.

Energy efficiency and climate neutrality are hot topics these days – and they affect practically all sectors, including public transport. Transport companies are tasked with reducing emissions and achieving climate targets. This is where e-mobility plays an important role. Battery-electric buses bring new challenges that include coordinating charging processes and dealing with limited range. With the future-focused LIO-Volta solution from Trapeze, dispatchers can monitor a fleet's energy management as well as vehicle power needs and excess range. LIO-Volta provides suitable dispatching plans to optimally operate e-buses in the route network according to the timetable and to intervene as efficiently as possible in case of disruptions.

Electromobility is making its way into bus depots. Ensuring that electric buses are fully charged and ready for departure requires data transfer between the charging management and depot management systems. The new VDV 463 norm defines a standardized interface and enables a uniform exchange of data between the management systems. This enables depot operators to openly select systems without being tied to one manufacturer when expanding the infrastructure. In the video of Vector Informatik, we explain the advantages of the standardized interface and show how it is implemented in the vCharM charging management system.
