Abstract

The EV Shuttle Bus Pilot dataset contains data and analysis from Hocking-Athens-Perry Community Action's demonstration of an electric bus on routes of their rural Athens Public Transit system. The vehicle used in the demonstration was a Ford E-450 cutaway equipped with an electric drivetrain, a 127-kWh battery system by Motiv Power Systems, and a cabin upfit by Turtle Top. Data gathered include route assignments, running time and distance, fuel economy, and charge cycles. A comparison of the vehicle's observed duty cycle with duty cycle modeling from other rural transit fleets in the National Transit Database is included to help better understand the rural adoption potential for this fleet technology.

Dataset of U.S. School Bus Depots

Dataset Shao, Yang

A large body of environmental justice and public health literature describes how undesirable or dangerous facilities, such as truck depots and polluting industrial plants, are disproportionately located in or near communities of color, low-income communities, or populations that have been otherwise marginalized or underserved, leading to health harms. Research also describes the high levels of traffic-related air and noise pollution that is linked to health harms and inequitably distributed near many schools. Therefore, a primary use case for this dataset is to analyze the extent to which school bus depots are located in underserved areas and to create an evidencemore »« less
EV Profile Capture

Dataset Thurston, Sam ; Wells, Landon ; Vartak, Payas

NextGen Profiles' EV profile capture efforts aimed to explore the variance in performance and evaluate how different operational conditions influence production EV charging behavior. Data were collected at a frequency of 10 Hz from both the EV and EVSE during each charge session. These charge session parameters were then entered into a time-series database for further analysis. The data were gathered under different operational conditions to examine the effects of various factors such as battery state of charge, battery temperature, vehicle condition, smart charge management, and EVSE limitations. The EV profile capture dataset includes extensive high-power charging data from 16more »« less
Sample IEEE123 Bus system for OEDI SI

Dataset Elgindy, Tarek ; Balasubramaniam, Karthikeyan

Time series load and PV data from an IEEE123 bus system. An example electrical system, named the OEDI SI feeder, is used to test the workflow in a co-simulation. The system used is the IEEE123 test system, which is a well studied test system (see link below to IEEE PES Test Feeder), but some modifications were made to it to add some solar power modules and measurements on the system. The aim of this project is to create an easy-to-use platform where various types of analytics can be performed on a wide range of electrical grid datasets. The aim ismore »« less
FleetREDI Insight: Intrastate Coach Bus Dataset

Dataset Birky, Alicia

Capturing real-world data is critical to reducing the barriers to vehicle decarbonization and technology advancement for commercial vehicles.

EV Watts Public Database

Dataset Pavuluri, Yash

With the rapid increase in vehicle electrification, there is a need for up-to-date, publicly available national data to understand end user charging and driving patterns, as well as vehicle and infrastructure performance, to inform research planning. Energetics worked with various partners to collect and analyze plug-in electric vehicle (PEV) and electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE) data from 2019 to 2022. All sensitive attributes have been removed from this publicly available dataset. Researchers from one of the partner national labs under non-disclosure agreement (NDA) can request access to additional attributes by reaching out to evwattsdata@energetics.com.
