We present a data-driven framework to transform bus depots into grid-friendly energy hubs using solar PV and energy storage. Electric bus charging could strain electricity grids with intensive charging. . Distributed energy resources—small generation and storage units located near sites of electricity use, like rooftop solar, EVs, and battery storage systems—are key to the future grid, expanding energy generation opportunities. Behind-the-meter (BTM) energy storage resources are distributed energy. . It focuses on battery electric technologies (not fuel cell technologies) and is limited in scope to charging technologies, designs, and choices (rather than vehicle technologies, except as these impact charging). As charging needs may overlap between independently operated routes, EB fleets often have to wait in line for charging.
