Ballard and Forsee Power value proposition for bus applications

As public transportation transitions to zero-emission vehicles, selecting the right powertrain technology becomes increasingly important. In fuel cell electric buses, effectively managing the power distribution between the fuel cell and battery is key to maximizing efficiency, performance, and service life. This balance influences critical total cost of ownership factors such as energy consumption, vehicle range, and payload capacity.

In a new paper focused on optimized powertrains for public transit buses, Ballard’s extensive expertise in the development and application of fuel cell technology is combined with Forsee Power’s capabilities in smart battery systems. The partnership leverages the strengths of both companies to deliver integrated hybrid energy systems - providing OEMs and fleet operators with a structured, duty-cycle-informed methodology for powertrain configuration.
