Dear reader,
I am happy to welcome you to the very first Clean Bus Europe Platform newsletter. Already since 2019, the CBEP has been working to advance clean bus deployment in Europe.
Since then, and after having faced two challenging years, I am very proud to say the Platform has fully resumed its activities, and truly brought together European cities, transport authorities and operators, together with other relevant stakeholders, to share knowledge and expertise on clean bus deployment. Whether online or face-to-face: our exchanges, events and technical support have been key in bringing the Platform members closer to each other and closer to their plans for the clean bus deployment.
And our journey forward continues rapidly! After more than two years, the Platform is sitting on a wealth of knowledge, that we want to spread as much as possible. From our recently kicked off Study Tour, to our webinar series, to new members joining: there is much to share, and we hope you will continue to follow us on the road to more sustainable cities.
Happy reading,
Aida Abdulah
Senior Manager at UITP
On behalf of the CBEP Team
