NewPower UK

Our aim is to speed up the decarbonisation process by replacing diesel powertrains in older fleets at a substantially lower cost than a new bus. Conversion can take our engineers as little as three weeks and we have space for teams to work on six buses at any one time. Our NewPower UK master technicians built the original Wrightbus #StreetDeck buses and have unrivalled expertise in being able to swap powertrains, utilising their unique skills and years of experience. The offer the very best skills & knowledge in the business, making the re-power process a smooth transition.   This affordable method of decarbonisation can help operators with mid-life bus fleets but without the funding for new zero-emission buses to take advantage of the instant sustainability switch.

Switching from diesel to electric buses cuts carbon emissions by 70 tonnes per bus each year. At NewPower UK we're committed to re-powering diesel buses —helping drive a cleaner, greener future for everyone. Together with Wrightbus, we are leading the charge in the global transition to zero-emission buses. By transforming bus fleets across the UK and Ireland, we're not just reducing emissions—we’re also creating healthier, more breathable air and fostering sustainable communities. With air quality suffering, it's never been more urgent to take action and clean up the air we all breathe. A brighter, cleaner future starts with every bus, in every town. #NewPower #Wrightbus #DrivingAGreenerFuture #RePoweredBus #ElectricBus #ZeroEmission #Sustainability #GreenTransport #ElectricBuses #CleanAir #ClimateAction

The #NewPower factory recently provided the perfect backdrop for discussions around the decarbonisation of public transport, where we were joined by leading minds from Wrightbus, First Bus, NewPower UK and AllServiceOne. Wrightbus CEO Jean-Marc Gales hosted the event and welcomed senior team members from each company for briefings and breakout sessions around our shared vision for a greener future supporting UK manufacturing and green jobs.   The First Bus team were able to walk round the factory to look at the progress of their recent order, viewing the buses alongside the Wrightbus and NewPower senior teams. We look forward to seeing the first re-powered First Bus buses in service soon. #NewPower #FirstBus #AllServiceOne #Collaboration #RePoweredBuses #ElectricBuses

“We know the #Streetdeck product well. We’ve been building them for 12 years. Because of that, we’re able to offer a full 10-year body and chassis warranty, which we see as a key USP.” Dr Robert Best, Wrightbus Engineering Director. AT NewPower UK we currently focus on converting our own Wrightbus Streetdeck models, utilising the expertise of our team and our full knowledge of the structure, stresses and engineering, allowing us to provide a 10-year warranty. Our goal is to give older diesel buses a second lease of life, allowing bus companies that want to decarbonise faster, but cannot afford the investment a new bus requires, to do just that. #NewPower #NewPowerUK #Wrightbus #DrivingAGreenerFuture #Decarbonisation #Repower #RepoweringBuses #ElectricBus #BicesterJobs #UKManufacturing
