Ateb
Atebwyd gan Deputy Minister for Climate Change
As part of our Net Zero Wales Strategy, we are progressing proposals to transform local bus services across Wales to zero emission operations. There are now 14 electric buses operating on the Traws Cymru service in North and West Wales. Newport Bus have purchased 44 EV vehicles and Cardiff Bus 36 EV vehicles, these deployments bring Wales broadly in line with the rest of the UK in decarbonising our service bus fleet. Both Cardiff and Newport bus will be deploying further buses later in this Financial Year. My officials are working with key stakeholders in South West Wales to develop a project to test out hydrogen buses at scale and these plans will develop over the next 12 months. Plans for the decarbonisation of the whole service bus fleet by 2035 are now nearing completion.
