T-1A1c - Buses

Public and private bus transportation is a crucial component of urban and intercity mobility. To reduce the environmental impact of buses, this subsector explores the use of alternative fuels, specifically biofuels and biogas, as cleaner alternatives to traditional diesel and petrol.
