The city of Oviedo will test a Caetano H2.CityGold for the next three months From 15th of April. The bus will run through the different TUA lines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In January 2021 the public transport operator of Wiesbaden, in Germany, chose Caetano to deliver 10 hydrogen buses in the last quarter of 2021. In the same country the Portuguese producer has already been selected as the supplier to deliver four hydrogen buses to Bielefeld\u2019s Transport Company<\/a> and supplied two hydrogen buses to the eFarm Project<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In Wiesbaden the 12-meter fuel cell bus<\/a> units will be operated by ESWE Verkehr, the public transport operator of Wiesbaden, on the routes 16 and 17. The same operator has ordered as many as 56 units<\/a> of Mercedes eCitaro<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On the 15th of April, the mayor of Oviedo, Alfredo Canteli together with the Councillor of Infrastructure, Nacho Cuesta, presented the Caetano H2.CityGold<\/strong> as the hydrogen bus that will run in Oviedo for the next months in a ceremony held in Plaza de la Catedral of Oviedo. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The representatives of the participating companies in this initiative, CaetanoBus, ALSA<\/strong>, Authorities of Oviedo, Duro Felguera, Grupo HUNOSA and Nortegas, also attended the ceremony. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
For the next three months, Oviedo\u2019s public transport operator, part of ALSA, will test the operational capabilities of Caetano hydrogen bus in regular passenger traffic on different TUA lines. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
