Abstracts

United Kingdom electric bus market is expected to grow at a CAGR of around 46% during the forecast period on account of growing need for controlling GHG (Greenhouse gases) emissions emitted by vehicles and growing government initiatives. An electric bus is powered by electricity and uses electric motors or traction motors for propulsion. An electric bus can be powered either by electricity from off bus sources or with a self-contained battery or a generator which converts fuel to electricity.

The major factors responsible for the rising sales of electric buses include improved miles on a single charge, reduction in charging time, increasing number of charging stations across all the regions, among others. Additionally, the development of integrated mobility solutions and increasing public transport are further propelling growth in the market. Furthermore, rising government support coupled with growing awareness among population would steer growth in the market in the coming years.

The United Kingdom electric bus market is segmented based on seating type, battery type, application, bus length, region and company. Based on battery type, the market can be bifurcated into lead acid and lithium ion, of which the latter is expected to grow at a fast pace since it is safe and cost-effective. Based on bus length, the market can be fragmented into 6-8m, 9-12m and above 12m. The 9-12m segment is anticipated to dominate the market owing to the preference for medium and large buses by the public transport authority.

The major player operating in UK electric bus market are BYD/ADL, Volvo, Optare, Mellor Coachcraft, Pelican Yutong Buses and others. Most of the companies are developing new products along with new advanced technologies in order to strengthen their position in electric bus market.
