Keolis in Denmark, two contract with e-buses<\/h2>\n

The e-buses were purchased by Keolis following the award of two contracts in 2020:\u00a0one on 14 April, by Movia, the Public Transport Authority (PTA) in Eastern Denmark<\/a>, to operate and maintain a total of 47 buses, of which 35 fully electric, around Zealand and Falster for a period of ten years; the second\u00a0on 30 April, by FynBus, the PTA of Odense, to continue operating the city\u2019s bus\u00a0network for another four years . The network features 70 urban buses, 20 of which are\u00a0being replaced by fully electric buses<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Yutong<\/strong> electric buses are 12 metres long with the capacity to carry 62 passengers.\u00a0The e-buses will be charged in their respective depots2 for up to six hours at night and will have an autonomy of up to 350 km, according to Keolis. The public transport operator points out that until the completion of the new depot in Kors\u00f8, the 35 e-buses for the Zealand and Falster network will be temporarily parked in Odense, where the installation of the ticketing and bus IT systems will be carried out.<\/p>\n
