Some more news - I don't recall this one in this thread, but it could easily explain the European factor... CALSTART News Notes 06/11/97 - Daimler-Benz Unveils Fuel Cell-Powered Bus Stuttgart, Germany - One year after unveiling its fuel cell-powered minivan (News Notes 5/14/96), Daimler-Benz has unveiled a fuel cell-powered transit bus and said it hopes to have 20 on the road by the year 2000, reports Hydrogen & Fuel Cell Letter. Dubbed the "NEBUS," or "new electric bus," it uses a proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell designed by Ballard Power Systems. It's rated at about 250 kilowatts, or about 340 metric horsepower; 190 kW (260 hp) are used for the drive, electrical and air conditioning systems. Seven roof-mounted compressed hydrogen cylinders enable a range of about 156 miles. The 40-foot low-floor bus, a converted Daimler-Benz O405N model, seats 34 and has space for 24 standing passengers. Other innovations include infinitely variable 75 kW asynchronous hub motors, an active electronically controlled suspension system and solar cells integrated into its roof vents.
