Enova Systems, an early stage production company in an emerging industry and a leading developer of proprietary electric, hybrid and fuel cell digital power management systems, is pleased to announce that its 120kW System has been chosen to power four Optare Solo Buses, integrated by UK based, Traction Technology Plc. The Buses will incorporate Enovas 120kW Series Hybrid drive system.
This award follows extensive competitive trial evaluation by Merseytravel. This is the first time that Traction has been part of a head to head evaluation of its hybrid system and their success in this trial is seen by Enova as a critical indicator in Traction's plans for the adoption of its offering in the UK market and beyond.
Enova Systems Terry Morano stated, The fact that these vehicles are running with ultracapacitors illustrates the flexibility of Enovas Electric Drive Systems towards diverse power systems, such as batteries, fuel cells, bio fuels, hydrogen, and now, ultracapacitors.
Traction Technology Plc is a designer and distributor of environmentally friendly, low emission series diesel electric hybrid engine systems. The confirmed contract with Merseytravel is to supply four hybrid Optare Solo buses. Each will be powered by a hybrid diesel system, in tandem with an ultracapacitor power pack.
