    Abstract

    Due to the concerns on increasing fossil fuel consumption and its significant negative impact on environment, many European Union countries are planning to move towards fossil-fuel-free transport system by replacing the fossil fuel buses with zero-emission electric buses. To ensure a smooth transition to electric bus solution and fast integration of these vehicles with charging infrastructure, a set of unified standards is required for charging of the electric vehicles. Different projects and committees, such as H2020 ASSURED project, have included this requirement in their working agenda during the last few years. This paper presents ASSURED and other projects activities for achieving interoperable and reliable heavy-duty electric vehicle fleets.
