Sharjah's Roads and Transport Authority (SRTA) has launched the first phase of its electric bus operation, with 10 buses serving 3 intercity lines. This initiative supports the Climate Neutrality 2050 initiative and promotes green public transportation in the emirate.
The move follows Abu Dhabi's launch of 'green' buses, including electric and hydrogen-powered vehicles, on September 12. These eco-friendly buses operate on Route 65 between Marina Mall and Shams Boutik in Al Reem Island, reducing harmful pollutants and carbon emissions.
By transitioning from diesel to renewable energy, Abu Dhabi expects to cut annual carbon dioxide emissions by over 100,000 metric tonnes. Hydrogen-powered buses, in particular, only emit water vapor, making them an environmentally sustainable option.
