Clean energy, clean transport


The automotive industry has been a swift radical change. Digital, autonomous, electric and hydrogen powered vehicles are fluxing into daily usage. Motor vehicle makers are investing a great deal of money in new electric models.
Day by day electric vehicles enter into market across the world increasingly. In recent years, the electric vehicles have been gradually spreading across the world. In order to spur these green vehicles, countries bring various incentive elements. Some countries do not implement import duties in order to encourage these clean energy-powered vehicles.
Cities across the globe increasingly see electric buses as a way to reduce local air pollution. Some of mega cities are undergoing to replace the public transport fleets with electric vehicles due to these vehicles feature cleaner, quieter and more comfortable for both passengers and drivers. Cities across the globe increasingly see electric buses as a way to reduce local air pollution, and such municipalities as Paris and Amsterdam have set goals to switch to zero-emission buses in the coming years.
According to Bloomberg, nearly half of the municipal buses on the road worldwide will be electric-powered within seven years. China expected to dominate the global market as it aims to cut urban pollution and support domestic manufacturers.
The total number of electric buses in service is forecast to more than triple, from 386,000 last year to about 1.2 million in 2025, equal to about 47 percent of the worldwide city bus fleet, according to a report from Bloomberg.
As long as fast charging lithium batteries increase and spread electric buses will be multiply especially in public transportation with zero emission so as to secure silence and clean environment. This investment in electric vehicles also requires investing in charging infrastructure.
In addition to bus manufacturers, car makers have also shifted to make electrified versions. France and the UK have given automakers a 2040 deadline to end the sale of new gas-powered cars. 
According to Swiss bank UBS, $360 billion will be needed to spend over the next eight years to build global charging infrastructure to keep pace with electric car sales. Electric vehicles for construction, agriculture and mining expected to reach an $87 billion market in 2028. Komatsu, John Deere, Caterpillar, and others manufacture the big vehicles - mainly hybrid - while other manufacturers offer smaller, pure-electric versions.
The radical change is predicted in most electrical and electronic parts in buses and also in the operation of traditional OEM business. So, numerous technologies currently in usage would be limited in the upcoming period.

The objective is to reduce fossil fuel consumption for a clean and healthily world.
