“…Initially, it was thought that this was caused by an incorrectly selected internal moment of inertia. The value used by Abraham et al was 0.01 kg•m 2 , several orders of magnitude lower than other values found in the literature, such as the 12 kg•m 2 used by Koch et al [18].…”

“…The features of each model are summarized in Table 2. New versions of SUMO also include a detailed EV model by Koch et al [18], which could be a more accurate drop-in replacement for the Kurczveil et al [13] Table 2 shows that Hull et al's model does not take into account radial drag and rotational inertia. These parameters may have a significant impact on the vehicles' energy usage.…”

Planning for the eventual electrification of transport in sub-Saharan Africa requires accurate simulation of its unique transport systems. The few studies that attempt to model electric minibus taxis—vehicles extensively used in sub-Saharan Africa’s public transport systems—vary greatly in their results. This paper analyses, compares and corrects the only two existing studies that project energy consumption of electric minibus taxis in the region. One of the studies projected an energy consumption of 0.39 kWh/km, while the other projected 0.93 kWh/km. This paper carefully analyses the simulation tools and models and cumulatively applies corrections from the literature and scientific analyses. As a result, the discrepancy between the two simulation tools is eliminated for a given data input and a final energy consumption is estimated in the range of 0.49–0.52 kWh/km, depending on the input data.
