Performance Assessment Handbook

Summary
Performance Assessment Handbook: The evaluation methodology defined in the Performance Assessment Handbook will make extensive use of the assessment frameworks that were developed and applied in current and previous FC bus projects (e.g. JIVE, CHIC, HyTransit, HyFLEET:CUTE) to ensure a consistent evaluation approach using comparable performance indicators. Importantly, this approach will enable comparisons between projects and technology over time. The Handbook will define: • The indicators for assessing the performance of the fuel cell bus and associated hydrogen infrastructure as well as comparison to a reference technology (e.g. diesel ICE). • The data points required to carry out the planned analysis work and to calculate the performance indicators. • The data formats required, the frequency of data collection and related details. The Handbook will be available in month 4. It is important that it is available early in the project so the data requirements are available in a timely manner for the bus and HRS operators / owners to consider in their procurement processes, and possibly included in their call for tenders.
