The objectives of this platform are: (1) to monitor and map e-bus fleets in operation; (2) to promote data transparency; and (3) to quantify the annual CO<sub>2<\/sub> emissions reduction attributed to these vehicles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The E-BUS RADAR data pertains to the systems in operation in Latin American and African cities and metropolitan areas that already have e-buses in their public transport fleets. E-buses that have been purchased but are yet to enter the fleets are not showcased on the platform. We invite you to read <a href=\"https:\/\/ebusradar.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Metodologia-E-Bus-Radar-Ingles.pdf\">this publication<\/a> developed by the ICCT, which provides detailed information on the methodology for calculating the CO2 emissions avoided in the life cycle by electric buses in operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the e-bus fleet grows in Latin America and Africa, this platform will be regularly updated, and several new cities will be added. Being a collaborative platform, if you have any observations regarding any mistakes or lack of data in the platform, or any other comments, please do not hesitate to contact us at: <strong>zebra@c40.org<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>Why e-buses?<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Emissions from the transportation sector result in over $1 trillion in health damage every year. The growth of this sector has also contributed to expanding greenhouse gas emissions associated with rising sea levels, temperatures, fires, and other impacts on climate change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Urban bus and minibus fleets are the primary mode of urban mobility for hundreds of millions of citizens in Latin America and Africa. However, these fleets are still powered by diesel, an antiquated and highly polluting technology. In order to tackle the challenges posed by diesel engines to air quality and climate, cities must embrace an energy and technological transition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>E-buses are an excellent solution for promoting cleaner and healthier urban areas while supporting local and national governments in achieving their climate goals. In this context, the expansion of e-bus fleets in Latin American and African cities is key to the economic and global future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:17px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>Who are we?<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Partnership:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dtu.dk\/english\">DTU<\/a><\/strong>: DTU is recognized internationally as a leading technical and natural sciences university, renowned for its focus on sustainability and business-oriented approach.
