Abstract :
Series hybrid propulsion system buses are one of the possible alternatives in order to save fuel and reduce environmental pollution. They also present comfort advantages for the passenger due to the easy vehicle access. This paper introduce different criteria useful to select batteries and hypercapacitors for series hybrid bus propulsion system.
