The Latin America, Middle East and Africa Electric Bus Market would witness market growth of 24.2% CAGR during the forecast period (2023-2030).
City buses are the major source of black carbon emissions in the transportation sector. In order to design and plan low-emission transportation networks for the general public that include electric buses, the UNEP is offering technical and policy help to many cities in Latin America, and Africa. In addition, the UNEP has offered technical assistance to locate and remove roadblocks and promotes the adoption and development of clean buses to win over the public. This help has been made possible by the International Clean Transportation Council (ICCT) along with regional partners. In the coming years, the expansion of the market is anticipated to be driven by these government initiatives.
The cost of operating buses is further reduced because the energy used to power them is less expensive than diesel. The overall costs of BEVs are anticipated to drop significantly with improvements in battery technology and ongoing battery price declines. In the upcoming years, it’s anticipated that public transportation systems will buy 100% battery-electric buses at an even faster rate, bolstering the expansion of the market.
