CHARGING SYSTEM FOR ELECTRIC BUS AND CHARGING METHOD USING THE SAME

A charging system includes: a power converter configured to receive power from an external power network to generate charging power for electric buses; power rails electrically connected to the power converter and installed at a predetermined height according to a layout of a garage; a first charging network configured to horizontally move above a floor in the garage along the electric power rails to upper sides of the electric buses to contact the electric buses; a second charging network electrically connected to the power converter and providing a charging zone on a bottom surface of the garage by reflecting the layout to contact the electric buses parked in the charging zone; and a station controller configured to control a charging sequence of the electric buses by analyzing position information of the electric buses and calculating a shortest movement path and a charging order of the first charging network.
