HiPhi

🟢Announcing that it will convert diesel mining trucks to electric in 2021 together with #ABB, #Hitachi shared that the first vehicle has been produced.
⛏️The giant truck started to be used in a copper-gold mine in Zambia. It climbs with an electrical connection that feeds the battery, similar to a trolleybus, while going to pick up load. When turning downhill while loaded, it recharges its battery thanks to regenerative braking.
🔋In this way, ABB and Hitachi completed the transformation with a smaller one instead of a megawatt-hour battery. They made this possible thanks to the regenerative braking ability of the huge electric motors seen in the prototype photo.
🔌Mining truck&#8217;s previously had a giant internal combustion engine with 16 cylinders and 2,534 horsepower. It will relatively reduce the impact of mining on the environment by ending diesel consumption and zeroing out emissions after the conversion to electric.

In the US, the federal government provides various incentives for conversion to electric vehicles. The City of New York is also taking advantage of these incentives and incorporating a large-scale fleet. The New York City Council announced it will spend $10.1 million to purchase 925 electric vehicles. The fund will cover electric garbage trucks to street sweepers, and build 315 new EV chargers. The US Department of Transportation provides $10.1 million in federal grant funding to the City of New York. The fund will be used to purchase 382 <a href="https://www.licarco.com/2022-chevrolet-bolt-ev">Chevrolet Bolts</a>, 360 <a href="https://www.licarco.com/ford-e-transit">Ford E-Transit</a> vans, and 150 Ford <a href="https://www.licarco.com/ford-f-150-lightning-pro-standard-range">F-150 Lightning</a> pickup trucks.
The administration is also purchasing 25 plug-in hybrid street sweepers for the New York City Department of Sanitation (DSNY) and 7 Mack LR BEV garbage trucks with two 130 kW engines producing a total of 496 peak horsepower. After a successful pilot implementation, these will be the first electric garbage trucks owned by DSNY. This first order of electric pickup trucks and vans brings the agency closer to its goal of an all-electric light and medium-duty fleet by 2035.
Federal funds will also support the DCAS&#8217;s first major investment in all-electric pickup trucks. By September 2022 – three years ahead of schedule – DCAS has reached its goal of electrifying 4,000 vehicles in its city fleet. Currently, the electric fleet includes a variety of vehicle types and categories, from more than 200 Ford Mustang Mach Es to nearly 850 Chevy Bolts, most of which serve law enforcement.

New York City Buys 925 EVs for Cleaning

Rivian

Last month, The Environmental Protection Agency announced $500 million in financing for electric school buses. It’s the first installment of President Biden’s <a href="https://www.licarco.com/news/epa-has-released-the-specifics-of-a-5-billion-electrified-school-bus-initiative">$5 billion</a> Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. The Biden administration has also proposed a new program this time of the same financial size called the National Electric Vehicle Charging Network.
The $5 billion budgeted for the program will help to install at least four superchargers every 50 miles/80 kilometers along important highways. To qualify for funds, electric chargers must meet the demands of all drivers on no account of whatever electric vehicle they are driving. The Federal Highway Administration has proposed a new rule which would allow electric vehicle owners to use charging stations across the country that have identical payment mechanisms, pricing information, and charging rates.

<h2>Every Americans Will Be Able To Reach the EV Charging Station</h2>
The main objective here is to ensure that chargers work like this in every region and are simple to locate, use, and pay for regardless of who owns them. The funding program will enable to deliver of EV charging to rural, underserved, and difficult-to-reach areas. This charging scheme for public roadways has an outcome that will provide $2.5 billion to establish Level 2 EV chargers in poor or service-deprived communities. It will allow all Americans to benefit from the EV transformation.
The specifications for the DC fast chargers are likewise not mentioned in the announcement. A 50 kW unit classifies as a rapid charger, but by today&#8217;s standards, it&#8217;s already an antique worthy of the Smithsonian. The current standard is 150 kW, however, 300 kW, 350 kW, and greater chargers are increasingly becoming accessible.

Standards & Rural Area Accessibility For EV Charging Plan In US

The Environmental Protection Agency announced $500 million in financing for electric school buses last week. It&#8217;s the first installment of President Biden&#8217;s $5 billion Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. It will fund low and emission free school buses throughout the next 5 years.
On May 20, 2022, the agency started taking applications from school districts and other partners. And it will proceed through August 19, 2022. The EPA noted in a press statement that applications to replace inner buses servicing &#8220;high-need local education institutions, Tribal Schools, and rural areas&#8220;. It will be prioritized, while real financing in the way of refunds will still be provided through a random lottery. The EPA stated that incentives can be allocated to charging devices in addition to new buses.
According to the EPA, most current educational buses run on gasoline, and exhaust pollution causes to lung and other health risks. According to the EPA, electric buses will reduce carbon emissions, and minimize school district running costs. It possibly helps maintaining the grid through bidirectional charging.
<h2>Almost Half Million School Busses Every Day</h2>
According to the USPIRG, school buses are the most common mode of public transportation. 480,000 in service every school day, although only around 1% are electrical. According to the organization, replacing all current diesel buses with electric buses would save almost 8 million metric tons of carbon gas emissions each year.
Bidirectional charging might help electric school buses contribute to grid balance. Such a huge fleet would provide ample battery capacity to absorb excess energy through non &#8211; peak hours. It discharges  during peak times, allowing producing facilities to operate at a more stable level. It also has the potential to enhance the usage of renewable energy. Additionally it works well with battery buffers.
<h2>Boston Planning To Go %100 Electrical by 2030</h2>
For environmental-activist school leaders, electric school buses are no longer an exotic choice. The first ones appeared on American streets in 2014, and established bus manufacturers such as Blue Bird have been producing them in modest but growing quantities ever since. The Volkswagen diesel settlement, which occurred before the federal government stepped in, aided in the transition to electric school buses.
This movement is gaining traction. Boston is planning for a 100 percent electric city fleet by 2030, incorporating school buses. The Lion Electric manufacturing for electrified school buses is gearing up to become one of the country&#8217;s largest.
Technical Specifications
<ul>
<li>Range: 100 to 155 miles (150 to 250 km) per charge</li>
<li>Innovative single-speed electric powertrain</li>
<li>2 kW AC on-board charger</li>
