ELECTRIC BUSES FOR URBAN TRANSPORTATION - ASSESSMENTS ON COST, INFRASTRUCTURE AND EXPLOITATION

Urban transport is one of the most challenging sectors of the public administration of a metropolitan area. Fuel cost, maintenance, transport capacity, pollution represent only a small amount of the data that is taken into consideration in the decision of purchasing a new fleet of urban buses for pu...
