However, <strong>significant shares for electric buses on the road can already be found in countries such as the Netherlands (12.4%) and Luxembourg (6.6%)<\/strong>. It should be underlined that such figures concerns buses and coaches today in operation. When focusing on new registration, last year the same <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sustainable-bus.com\/news\/electric-buses-acea-eu-registrations\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ACEA found that electric buses have increased to a share of 6.1%, with diesel vehicles decreasing almost 10 percentage points from 2019 to 72.9%<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Anna Carmo e Silva heading ACEA bus division<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBuses and coaches have the lowest carbon footprint per passenger of any form of motorised road transport,\u201d said Ms <strong>Carmo e Silva<\/strong>. \u201cWe are fully committed to further improving this track record and to increasing our offerings of zero-emission vehicles. However, insufficient charging and refuelling infrastructure risks being a barrier to introducing new bus technologies more widely to the EU market.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is something the Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Regulation (AFIR), currently under discussion in the European Parliament and member states, needs to address urgently, with more ambitious targets for suitable infrastructure. Buses are the most widely-used form of public transport in the European Union, serving cities as well as suburban and rural areas. Already in July 2019 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sustainable-bus.com\/news\/uitp-and-acea-a-joint-call-to-demand-investments-in-charging-refuelling-infrastructures\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">UITP\u00a0and\u00a0ACEA\u00a0urged EU members to scale up support measures for alternative fuel infrastructure for buses<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With buses on the EU\u2019s roads being 12.8 years old on average, renewing especially the city-bus fleets with zero-emission vehicles should be a priority for policy and decision makers.
