Decarbonising Mobility: The Rise of Electric Buses in the MENA Landscape
Insights on bus electrification in the MENA region, including case studies from early adopters and recommendations to advance sustainable mobility.
What’s in this Report?
As cities across the MENA region rethink the future of urban mobility, one solution is rapidly gaining ground: electric buses. What will it take for MENA cities to shift gears and fully embrace this technology?
With regional collaboration, alignment on standards, and shared investment in infrastructure, e-buses are key to helping MENA cities tackle rising populations, deteriorating air quality, and climate responsibilities.
And it reminds us that electrification should not replace, but rather reinforce, the importance of public transport as the backbone of sustainable urban mobility.
