Dear reader,

The Clean Bus Europe Platform has nearly reached its final stop on the road to sustainable cities. On 6 and 7 June, project partners, Host and Target Cities and many other clean bus stakeholders will meet at the CBEP Final Event at the UITP Summit in Barcelona. While the Bus Forum on 7 June will share project outcomes and lessons learned, the day before there will be plenty other activities around clean bus tech for you to enjoy.

I cannot wait to share with you what we have achieved over these 4 years: how we have facilitated a true momentum for further clean bus deployment across Europe with our Study Tours, events, many personal exchanges, and other activities. I hope to meet you in Barcelona so we can show you in person!
