ISE Gasoline Hybrid Drive Systems to Power NABI Buses for LA Metro
4 September 2007
ISE Corporation recently received an order for its ThunderVolt gasoline hybrid-electric drive systems (earlier post) to power six NABI (North American Bus Industries) buses in the Los Angeles, CA area.
Funded by the Advanced Transit Vehicle Consortium (ATVC), the hybrid buses will be operated by the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (LA Metro).
ISE will supply the six ThunderVolt hybrid-electric drive systems to NABI with Siemens electric drive components, advanced ultracapacitor energy storage system, and ISE proprietary hybrid controls.
The ThunderVolt gasoline hybrid-electric drive system was certified as an alternative fuel system by the California Air Resources Board (CARB) in November 2003. More than 100 hybrid buses utilizing the ThunderVolt gasoline hybrid-electric drive system are already in revenue service in various California cities, including Long Beach, Orange County, Norwalk, Montebello, Gardena, San Bernardino, and Fresno.
