The Verkehrsgesellschaft Landkreis Gifhorn mbH (VLG) intends to gradually convert its bus fleet to electromobility in accordance with the requirements of the Clean Vehicles Procurement Act. For this purpose, electric buses as well as the charging infrastructure required for their operation are to be procured and integrated into the operational processes.
VLG plans to initially provide charging infrastructure for 11 vehicles by 2027. A charging and load management system is to be introduced for the central control and monitoring of the charging processes, to limit the grid load and to support operational vehicle dispatch and vehicle deployment.
The introduction of electromobility brings additional requirements for the planning and control of vehicle deployment, charging processes and the available electrical power. Vehicle availability, battery charge status, energy demand, planned departure times, charging point occupancy and available grid capacity must in future be system-supported and taken into account collectively.
The initial expansion stage includes the charging infrastructure for 11 vehicles. The exact number and characteristics of the charging points, their technical properties, as well as the operational systems and data sources to be integrated are bindingly described in the quantity framework, interface descriptions and annexes to this specification sheet.
The increasing demands due to the progressive electrification of the bus fleet and the expansion of the charging infrastructure require a powerful charging, load and energy management system.
With the introduction of an LMS, the charging processes should be controlled taking into account the conditions arising from the charging infrastructure, vehicle data, battery charge states and range requirements. The LMS must control the charging processes so that the charge levels required for the planned vehicle deployment are reached in time.
The charging infrastructure is to be integrated into the LMS so that the status of the charging units can be centrally monitored and controlled.
