Charging that keeps the buses running
Overnight and opportunity charging for electric buses. Depot-scale high-power infrastructure designed around scheduled operations.
PAIN POINTS
Public transport can’t miss a departure
Fixed-route public transport depots need charging that reliably meets fixed timetables and handles high simultaneous power demand.
Fixed timetables
Buses leave when they leave. Chargers must deliver on that schedule.
High power density
Dozens of buses charging simultaneously requires serious electrical capacity.
Procurement complexity
Public tenders, multi-year contracts, evolving standards.
Service windows
Maintenance has to fit around operational hours.
SOLUTION
Depot charging built for public transport operations
Depot and opportunity charging — supported across the full lifecycle, built for phased electrification without disruption.
Overnight depot charging
Charging and electric grid sized to depot dwell times, ensuring buses are fully charged before the first departure.
Opportunity charging
High-power charging top-ups at terminals and key stops to extend range during daily operations.
Schedule-aware charging supported
Charging prioritized by bus, route length, and state of charge to match timetables.
Depot-scale energy management
Load balancing and peak shaving to keep power demand and energy costs under control.
Built-in redundancy
Resilient charging design and monitoring so single faults don’t disrupt service.
Transit-ready reporting
Operational charging data aligned with public transport KPIs and daily operations.
REFERENCES
Trusted by forward-thinking bus operators
“Länsilinjat has been very satisfied with Plugit’s delivery in Joensuu, where the first electric bus charging depot was commissioned in 2022. Our collaboration has been excellent, and thanks to Plugit’s values, quality, lifecycle management of the delivery, and commercial terms, the decision to continue working together was an easy one. We tendered several providers, but ultimately the decision to select Plugit was unanimous across our management team.”
