School bus diesel vs electric

Type days, one-way km, L/100, kg/L, kWh/100 and grid. 180, 12, 35, 2.68, 130 and 350 give 4,052.2 kg CO₂e diesel (scenario) · 2.0 kg CO₂e electric bus. 160 days give 2,744.3 and 1.2. 200 days give 6,110.4 and 3.4.

Two strings. 180 days and 12 km give 4,052.2 kg CO₂e diesel (scenario) · 2.0 kg CO₂e electric bus. Empty optional fields stay empty.

How it works

School bus diesel vs electric in this calculator is two CO₂e strings from the same route. 180 days, 12 km, 35 L/100, 2.68 kg/L, 130 kWh/100, grid 350 give 4,052.2 kg CO₂e diesel (scenario) · 2.0 kg CO₂e electric bus. The second set gives 2,744.3 kg CO₂e diesel (scenario) · 1.2 kg CO₂e electric bus. The third gives 6,110.4 kg CO₂e diesel (scenario) · 3.4 kg CO₂e electric bus.

km = days × 2 × km. litres = km/100 × L/100. diesel = litres × kg/L. kWh = km/100 × kWh/100. e-bus = kWh × grid / 1e6. At 180 and 12 the second line is the same route profile.

4,052.2 kg CO₂e diesel (scenario) · 2.0 kg CO₂e electric bus is not a grant form. 2,744.3 kg CO₂e diesel (scenario) · 1.2 kg CO₂e electric bus is a shorter year. 6,110.4 kg CO₂e diesel (scenario) · 3.4 kg CO₂e electric bus is 200 days. Optional fields stay empty.

EV vs petrol next door splits two cars. Remote work counts avoided days. Here the route stays: 180 days and 12 km stay 4,052.2 kg CO₂e diesel (scenario) · 2.0 kg CO₂e electric bus.

Type 180, 12, 35, 2.68, 130 and 350. Then Calculate. 4,052.2 kg CO₂e diesel (scenario) · 2.0 kg CO₂e electric bus. 2,744.3 kg CO₂e diesel (scenario) · 1.2 kg CO₂e electric bus. 6,110.4 kg CO₂e diesel (scenario) · 3.4 kg CO₂e electric bus.

The first set gives 4,052.2 kg CO₂e diesel (scenario) · 2.0 kg CO₂e electric bus. The second gives 2,744.3 kg CO₂e diesel (scenario) · 1.2 kg CO₂e electric bus. The third gives 6,110.4 kg CO₂e diesel (scenario) · 3.4 kg CO₂e electric bus. Other days at 12 km change both numbers.

Formula

km = days × 2 × km. diesel = (km/100) × L/100 × kg/L. e-bus = (km/100) × kWh/100 × grid / 1e6. Two strings, one profile.

How to use

  1. Type 180 days and 12 km one way.
  2. Add 35 L/100, 2.68 kg/L, 130 kWh/100 and grid 350.
  3. Click Calculate. The result is 4,052.2 kg CO₂e diesel (scenario) · 2.0 kg CO₂e electric bus.
  4. 160 days give 2,744.3 and 1.2. 200 days give 6,110.4 and 3.4.
  5. The e-bus uses 1e6. Not a grant.

180 days / 12 km = 4,052.2 kg diesel · 2.0 kg e-bus

Two strings. 180 days and 12 km give 4,052.2 kg CO₂e diesel (scenario) · 2.0 kg CO₂e electric bus.

School
Days in the year. 160 leave 2,744.3 kg CO₂e diesel (scenario) · 1.2 kg CO₂e electric bus.
diesel

Common questions

How much from 180 days and 12 km?

4,052.2 kg CO₂e diesel (scenario) · 2.0 kg CO₂e electric bus. There and back × 2.68.

How much at 160 days?

2,744.3 kg CO₂e diesel (scenario) · 1.2 kg CO₂e electric bus. A shorter year.

How much at 200 days?

6,110.4 kg CO₂e diesel (scenario) · 3.4 kg CO₂e electric bus. More km.

Is 4,052.2 an EPA grant?

No. Six fields. Clean School Bus sits outside this calculator.

Why is the e-bus 2.0 kg?

The engine divides the grid by 1e6. 130 kWh and 350 g stay a fraction.

Does a comma in 2.68 work?

Yes. 2,68 and 2.68 are the same kg/L.

Do blank persons split 4,052.2?

No. Options stay empty. The result is two strings.

How is this different from EV vs petrol?

That card uses a km share. Here two strings on one route.

What sits on the second line?

The same route profile. Examples take the full diesel and e-bus string.
