81 The number and variety of BEB models on the market have grown significantly in the last decade as has the number of BEB deployments. Most of the agencies surveyed for this synthesis report have BEB fleets that are up to 10% of their total fleet size, although some have fully electrified their fleets or are on the pathway to full electrification.

84 Battery electric Buses -- State of the practice bus-charger communication with multiple chargers in close proximity; dealing with space constraints when installing chargers in large quantities; managing the competing needs of BEBs that share on-route chargers, especially during irregular operations; and charge time optimization. Another general case example finding is that some agencies are opting to charge at fast chargers (overhead conductive or wireless)
