Public transport with its increasing importance has to offer vehicles which are attractive for the passengers and feature evident improvements for environmental aspects. A technology which is able to fulfil these requirements is the electric drive system power supplied by a Diesel generator unit. It enables the completely flat floor of the bus without steps of slopes and ensures excellent driving comfort by constant variable and jerkfree electric drive operation. This system, called the electric transmission, is the ideal technical basis for including additional electric energy sources or energy storages which are directly integrated into the electric system. Thus today's requirements for at least partly zero emission operation can be fulfilled without problems.
