In\u00a0the case of\u00a0the 14 Solaris Trollino 12 trolleybuses, the\u00a0batteries will have a\u00a0capacity of\u00a058 kWh, whereas the\u00a016 articulated vehicles will be\u00a0equipped with 87 kWh\u00a0batteries. This means that both types will be\u00a0able to\u00a0cover a\u00a0distance of\u00a0<strong>dozens of\u00a0kilometres in\u00a0zero-emission mode without the\u00a0use of\u00a0a pantograph<\/strong>. Thanks to\u00a0this solution the\u00a0trolleybuses for\u00a0Gdynia will be\u00a0able to\u00a0run in\u00a0areas of\u00a0the city where there is\u00a0no trolleybus traction line.<\/p>\n<h2>Solaris provides also new batteries for old vehicles<\/h2>\n<p>In addition to\u00a0trolleybuses, under the\u00a0contract, the\u00a0company will also provide batteries that will allow the\u00a0<strong>modernization of\u00a021 other vehicles<\/strong>. Replacement of\u00a0nickel-cadmium batteries with lithium-ion ones, together with appropriate power electronics, is\u00a0a huge technological leap, which will allow for\u00a0a zero-emission ride circa 15-20 kilometers without connection to\u00a0traction. Modernization of\u00a0trolleybuses begins this spring, while the\u00a0supply of\u00a0the trolleybuses to\u00a0Gdynia will begin in\u00a0September this year and\u00a0shall be\u00a0completed by\u00a0spring 2019.<\/p>\n<h2>The city of trolleybuses<\/h2>\n<p>\u00abTrolleybuses in\u00a0Gdynia have become a\u00a0recognisable quality brand for\u00a0<strong>green transport<\/strong>. Once this order is\u00a0carried out, we\u00a0will be\u00a0able to\u00a0replace buses on\u00a0some lines with trolleybuses. Thanks to\u00a0the batteries, these will manage to\u00a0ride also on\u00a0routes lacking traction lines. The\u00a0new trolleybuses will feature air\u00a0conditioning, will be\u00a0accessible for\u00a0persons with physical disabilities, whereas the\u00a0large and\u00a0easily legible screens and\u00a0internal CCTV cameras will improve the\u00a0safety of\u00a0passengers\u00bb says Katarzyna Gruszecka-Spycha\u0142a, deputy Mayor of\u00a0Gdynia. \u00abMoreover, the\u00a0new articulated vehicles, which are\u00a0only now\u00a0debuting on\u00a0Gdynia\u2019s street, will carry nearly twice as\u00a0many people as\u00a0standard vehicles at\u00a0a comparable cost of\u00a0operation. Thanks to\u00a0the new\u00a0electric vehicles, over 1\/3 of\u00a0the passengers using public transport in\u00a0Gdynia will travel by\u00a0trolleybuses\u00bb<br \/>\nToday Gdynia is, next to\u00a0Lublin and\u00a0Tychy, one\u00a0of the\u00a0three cities in\u00a0Poland to\u00a0have kept their trolleybus infrastructure and\u00a0are developing it.
