The overall bus MBRC for the BEB fleet was more than 9,000. Accessory loads contribute to the overall range capability, as more than 50% of “system on” time is spent at a speed of 0 mph where lighting and HVAC loads are still required. Foothill reports that there is still a lot of learning as the agency ramps up to a larger BEB fleet.
