Abstract

The objective of this paper is to analyze the influence of different driver behaviors on the energy consumption of electric buses. It shows that risktaking attitudes on traffic are not only dangerous to the driver, to the bus users and to the surroundings, but also promotes a poorer performance of the vehicle itself, increasing its energy consumption and reducing the amount of energy that can be recovered on regenerative braking.
