The Gepard project in Gdynia, Poland, revolutionized the city's trolleybus network with the introduction of "Trolleybus 2.0" vehicles and an innovative charging system. "Trolleybus 2.0" vehicles combine features of traditional trolleybuses and electric buses boasting traction batteries for autonomous driving and dual legal approval. Statistical analysis of energy consumption informed the development of a hybrid charging concept, balancing overhead contact line (OHL) coverage with additional fast charging stations. This hybrid In Motion Charhing (IMC) system reduces costs while ensuring reliable operation, even in adverse weather conditions. Moreover, as part of the CAR project, a fast charging station for trolleybuses was constructed, allowing for the additional extension of trolleybus routes.
