3 Current Bus Technology Options Green House Gas (GHG): CO 2 Emissions per kilometer
3 Current Bus Technology Options Public Health Perspective / Impact on Local Air Quality Toronto Public Health: The relative comparison of tailpipe emissions from the four propulsion technologies resulted in the following ranking: i. Battery Electric (zero emissions) ii. Diesel-Electric Hybrid / Compressed Natural Gas iii. Diesel 11
3 Current Bus Technology Options Life Cycle Cost Estimates vs Emissions Delivery of CNG infrastructure within the PTIF timeframe is uncertain. Battery Electric Buses with PTIF are significantly less expensive than any other option Proven Technologies Unproven Technologies 12
3 Current Bus Technology Options Other Considerations: Natural Gas 12% lower tailpipe emissions vs diesel Same driving range as diesel Low fuel cost + potential for Renewable Natural Gas 16% lower maintenance costs 20% of transit buses in North America Bus capital cost +$70k vs. diesel Infrastructure required: Fuelling & de-fuelling stations Maintenance facility ventilation Bus operations tied to infrastructure 13
3 Current Bus Technology Options Other Considerations: 2 nd Generation Hybrid Electric 38% Lower tailpipe emissions vs diesel Same driving range as diesel No infrastructure required TTC has maintenance & operating experience Start/Stop + EV mode Nova Bus and New Flyer are have production slots available; Bus capital cost +$150k vs. diesel 14
3 Current Bus Technology Options Other Considerations: Battery Electric ZERO tailpipe emissions Limited driving range 250 km (50% of TTC Service) Low operating and maintenance cost 30% fewer parts higher reliability, theoretically TTC hybrid experience transferable Charging infrastructure required Bus tied to infrastructure Bus capital cost + $350k vs. diesel Long term reliability unknown 15

4 Recommendations 1. Purchase 30 All-Electric Buses Delegate the authority to the TTC CEO to negotiate and enter into up to 3 contracts for the supply of a total of 30 all-electric buses and required infrastructure not to exceed the total project cost of $50M based on the following: a) The award of contracts will be based on negotiating an acceptable agreement, satisfactory to TTC General Council with the only three qualified suppliers of long range (>200km/charge) all-electric buses, New Flyer, Proterra and BYD that are compliant with Transport Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standards; and b) delivery of all 30 buses are to be delivered no later than March 31, 2019 in order to ensure that the buses eligible for the PTIF funding. 19
4 Recommendations 2. Purchase 230 Hybrid-Electric Buses Delegate the authority to the TTC CEO to enter into a contract(s) with up to two suppliers for the supply of 230 new generation hybrid-electric buses not to exceed the total project cost of $230M based on the following: a) The award of the contract(s) will be based on negotiating an acceptable agreement, satisfactory to TTC General Counsel with the only two bus suppliers, Nova Bus and New Flyer, capable of manufacturing hybrid-electric buses that are compliant with Transport Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standards, and b) Hybrid-electric buses are to be delivered no later than March 31, 2019 in order to ensure that the buses are eligible for PTIF funding. 3. Report project status updates quarterly through the CEO Report. 20
