Transport is one of the main drivers as it lays behind around 30% of greenhouse gas emissions, the municipality points out.\u00a06 biogas buses, 1 bioethanol bus and 3 electric buses are already running in the Agglomeration.<\/p>\n<p>A new step has now been taken with the integration into public transport of the brand new generation of Aptis buses from Alstom.

Furthermore, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sustainable-bus.com\/news\/ratp-order-a-potential-of-800-electric-buses-from-alstom-bollore-and-heuliez\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Alstom Aptis resulted as one of the winner of RATP tender for up to\u00a0<\/a>800 electric buses, together with Heuliez Bus and Bollor\u00e9. Each of the manufacturers was awarded with a first lot for up to 133 million euros. Also Grenoble and Toulon will see Aptis on their roads.<\/p>\n<p>As of September 2018, Alstom Aptis is <strong>referenced by the CATP in its electric bus offer destined for public purchasing<\/strong> by local authorities. This referencing allows member authorities to order Aptis vehicles directly and simply from the CATP.<\/p>\n<p>The vehicles requested by La Rochelle, as mentioned above, are designed for <strong>slow charging overnight at the depot<\/strong>. Aptis, the manufacturer underlines, is also available for occasional recharging at the end of each line, using ground-based charging solutions (SRS) or charging through the top (pantograph). <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sustainable-bus.com\/parts\/alstom-aptis-forsee-power-batteries\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Batteries are supplied by Forsee Power<\/a>.
