Solaris has\u00a0just signed a\u00a0contract with operator PKM\u00a0Jaworzno for\u00a0the supply of\u00a06 Solaris Urbino 18 electric buses<\/strong>. The\u00a0vehicles will hit\u00a0the streets of\u00a0Jaworzno within one\u00a0year of\u00a0the contract being signed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Back in\u00a02015, Jaworzno\u00a0was the\u00a0first town in\u00a0Poland to\u00a0put an\u00a0e-bus, the\u00a0Solaris Urbino 12 electric, into operation. Taking into account the\u00a0latest order, electric vehicles will make up\u00a080% of\u00a0the operator\u2019s fleet<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n This time, the\u00a0buses will be\u00a0equipped with Solaris High Energy batteries boasting a\u00a0total capacity of\u00a0over 280 kWh<\/strong>, and\u00a0at the\u00a0heart of\u00a0the drive will be\u00a0an electric axle<\/strong>. Just as\u00a0with the\u00a0vehicles already used by\u00a0the operator, the\u00a0new buses will be\u00a0charged both by\u00a0means of\u00a0pantograph chargers and\u00a0conventional charging sockets. The\u00a0operator also has\u00a0opted for\u00a0hybrid heating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Solaris and\u00a0PKM Jaworzno have been continuously collaborating for\u00a020 years. Jaworzno is\u00a0not the\u00a0only Polish town to\u00a0be investing in\u00a0the development of\u00a0environmentally friendly public transport. Up\u00a0until now, nearly 600 e-buses have been ordered by\u00a0domestic operators, with over 400 units already having been delivered. Orders placed by\u00a0Polish operators account for\u00a0almost 40% of\u00a0all electric contracts signed by\u00a0Solaris. According to\u00a0a report published by\u00a0the Polish Economic Institute (PIE) entitled \u201cHow to\u00a0support e-mobility\u201d, by\u00a02025, Poland will have the\u00a0third-biggest fleet of\u00a0electric buses in\u00a0Europe.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWe are\u00a0truly proud to\u00a0observe such towns as\u00a0Jaworzno that, by\u00a0setting an\u00a0example, have been consistently showing that e-mobility is\u00a0the right direction. This new\u00a0order for\u00a0electric Solaris bus\u00a0models, placed by\u00a0the operator, is\u00a0the best proof of\u00a0the satisfactory performance of\u00a0our e-buses and\u00a0the positive experiences it\u00a0had over many years of\u00a0their operation\u201d, said Petros Spinaris<\/strong>, member of\u00a0the Management Board of\u00a0Solaris for\u00a0Sales, Marketing and\u00a0Customer Service, who\u00a0was also present at\u00a0the contract signing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cEmission-free vehicles are\u00a0a natural phase in\u00a0the transformation of\u00a0public transport<\/strong>. We\u00a0all need solutions to\u00a0be as\u00a0green as\u00a0possible. E-mobility, which has\u00a0demonstrated its\u00a0technological effectiveness over many years, is\u00a0one of\u00a0them. I\u00a0am really glad not\u00a0only to\u00a0be the\u00a0pioneer in\u00a0Poland when it\u00a0comes to\u00a0operating an\u00a0electric fleet, but\u00a0also to\u00a0be able to\u00a0transform the\u00a0fleet successfully as\u00a0this change is\u00a0expected by\u00a0passengers, is\u00a0beneficial for\u00a0the environment and\u00a0ensures Jaworzno\u2018s status as\u00a0a modern town\u201d, says Zbigniew Nosal<\/strong>, CEO\u00a0of PKM\u00a0Jaworzno.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Solaris has\u00a0just signed a\u00a0contract with operator PKM\u00a0Jaworzno for\u00a0the supply of\u00a06 Solaris Urbino 18 electric buses.
