Re: PowerPoint presentation from Department of Research and Development
regarding electric and hydrogen buses for Mass Transit Agency
Attached please find the PowerPoint presentation by Riley Saito, Energy Specialist, in response
to Councilmember Matt Kaneali`i-Kleinfelder's request for an update on hydrogen powered
buses to be heard on the June 18, 2019 committee meeting in Kona.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Overview
Policy and Planning Context
Battery Electric Bus (BEB) Pilot
Hydrogen Bus Pilot — The `other electric bus'
Policy and Planning Context
• HRS 225P-5 Zero emissions clean economy target ....sequester more
atmospheric carbon and greenhouse gases than emitted within the State ......no later
than 2045
• Hele-On Transportation Master Plan: 2015 — 2018 Long term guide to set
clear goals
• Hele-On Pilot BEB Implementation Plan — 2018 Atwo bus pilot project,
life cycle cost analysis, charging, and deployment
• Hydrogen technology — mass transit solution

Recommends two options:
$4,000,000 .00
1. Shorter routes, baseyard charge —Diesel
$3,000,000 —Extended-Range BE0
2. Rapid, on-route charge
$2,000,000 Fast Charge BE0
Carefully review options
1. Topology is a major factor on $1,000,000

Zero Emission Bus "ZEB" Cost Will Converge
• Fuel Cell bus cost is decreasing. Battery Bus Range is
Increasing
• By Approx 2021 with reasonable volumes, the decision to
Buy a Fuel Cell or a Battery bus will not be based on the
Bus Cost
• It will be based on
• Infrastructure
• Energy Cost
• Other Operational Considerations

[§225P-5] Zero emissions clean economy target.
(a) Considering both atmospheric carbon and greenhouse gas emissions as well
as offsets from the local sequestration of atmospheric carbon and greenhouse
gases through long-term sinks and reservoirs, a statewide target is hereby
established to sequester more atmospheric carbon and greenhouse gases than
emitted within the State as quickly as practicable, but no later than 2045 .
(b) The Hawaii climate change mitigation and adaptation commission shall
endeavor to achieve the goals of this section. After January 1, 2020, agency
plans, decisions, and strategies shall give consideration to the impact of
those plans, decisions, and strategies on the State 's ability to achieve the
goals in this section, weighed appropriately against their primary purpose .
