The rise of electrification and the prominent role of electric buses in sustainable public transport
Abstract
The decarbonisation and efficient, energysaving operation of transport is the most important task for public transport providers in the coming years. Volánbusz Zrt. is preparing for electrification by continuously modernizing its vehicle fleet and transforming its operating model. In the first part of the article series, the authors present the trends and international
and domestic factors related to the integration of electric buses, based on extensive literature research. In the next part of the series of articles, the data-driven operating model based on the pilot projects of Volánbusz Zrt., which enables the achievement of the set goals, will be described.
