An electric bus in its entire life cycle saves the fuel of around $365,000 value, as compared to diesel buses; and $225,000, as compared to natural gas (CNG) buses. Moreover, electric buses are less noisy, and require less maintenance, compared to their conventional counterparts. The United States Department of Transportation has announced an investment of $24.9 million for the development of zero-emission buses across the country. Under its Twelfth Five Year Plan (2011–2015), China is investing heavily to increase the new energy vehicles (vehicles powered by renewable energy sources such as fuel-cell technology and battery). At the end of 2015, China is expected to accommodate around 500,000 hybrid electric and pure-electric vehicles.
The electric bus market is still at its nascent phase, and requires further technical development for the increased adoption of electric buses. Moreover, the premium price of electric buses is the major hindrance for their large scale adoption within the public transit infrastructure, especially in the developing countries, where the regional governments are focusing more on low emission natural gas powered buses.
