Hydrogen Buses for Urban Mobility
Organisers
With more and more metropolitan areas targeting zero-emission environments, an increasing number of cities, transport authorities and operators are considering a fully electric solution or fuel cell bus or combination of zero emission buses for their urban bus network.
In this context, the UITP Academy and EMT Madrid designed this training programme, with the support of JIVE 2, on how to introduce clean energy vehicles including battery electric and hydrogen buses offering a comprehensive overview on this new technology from the setting of a long-term city strategy in terms of energy transition to the definition of a charging strategy and the choice of technology and all the way to the procurement and the implementation and operation of the system.
This training will give an insight of urban bus networks, importance of building a sustainable infrastructure, and planning efficient timetable and scheduling on your routes.
