Electric vs Hydrogen – Land Footprint Comparison: Recharging and Refuelling 25 Buses

Electric vs Hydrogen - Land Footprint Comparison Recharging and Refuelling Buses
Summary:
The choice between electric and hydrogen buses is vital for sustainable cities, especially regarding depot space. Electric buses need more space and time to recharge, while hydrogen buses refuel quickly, making them better for space-constrained depots.

 
As cities increasingly turn to sustainable public transportation, the choice between electric and hydrogen buses becomes critical, especially when considering depot space and infrastructure. Recharging an electric bus, which can take up to 7 hours, requires significant space—up to seven times more than hydrogen refuelling. With an electric recharging unit capable of handling only two buses at a time, operators may need to rethink depot layouts to accommodate these lengthy charging sessions.
 
 
Watch the video below to see how space requirements compare between electric charging and hydrogen refuelling stations.
 

 
In contrast, hydrogen buses can be refuelled in just 10-16 minutes, allowing a single hydrogen station to refuel 25 buses in the same 7-hour period. For operators transitioning from diesel, hydrogen offers a seamless shift with similar infrastructure and operational requirements, making it an ideal solution for depots with limited space.
