Lowering costs and government support fueling significant increase in battery electric bus deployment across the United Kingdom

The adoption of electric buses has grown significantly in the United Kingdom as the country aims to reduce its carbon footprint and meet its climate targets. The adoption of electric buses has been driven by various factors, including the need to reduce emissions in cities and the availability of government funding. The adoption of BEBs in the country is driven by government incentives and a commitment to reducing emissions in urban areas. In 2021, 1,259 electric buses were sold in the country, with electric buses accounting for 40% of all new bus registrations.

According to BloombergNEF, the energy density of electric bus batteries is expected to increase from around 200 Wh/kg in 2021 to 350-400 Wh/kg by 2030. The range of electric buses is determined by battery size, weight, and other factors. In the United Kingdom, the average range for electric buses is between 180 and 350 km on a single charge. However, the upfront cost of electric buses in the country is higher than that of diesel buses. This cost differential is expected to decrease as production volumes increase and battery technology improves. According to Transport for London, the average cost of an electric bus in 2021 is around EUR 400,000 (USD 4,27,582) compared to around EUR 200,000 (USD 2,13,791) for a diesel bus.

According to a report by Bloomberg New Energy Finance, the total cost of ownership of an electric bus is expected to be lower than that of a diesel bus by 2025, even without government subsidies. Government investment in green infrastructure, falling costs of electric vehicle technology, and growing awareness of the benefits of electric buses are expected to result in a significant increase in the number of electric buses on UK roads in the coming years.
