    Duisburg, a German city, is taking a significant leap towards a greener and emission-free future for its public transport system. The city has selected Solaris, a leading European manufacturer of electric city buses, to deliver 25 Urbino hydrogen buses – a mix of 12-meter and 18-meter models.

    This marks Duisburg’s first step towards transforming its fleet to completely emission-free by 2030, aligning with its commitment to climate protection and enhanced quality of life. The introduction of these hydrogen-powered buses is expected to revolutionize urban transport in Duisburg, contributing to a sustainable and environmentally friendly future.

    Duisburger Verkehrsgesellschaft AG (DVG), a public transport operator in Duisburg, has placed an order for 25 hydrogen-powered Solaris buses, comprising 11 Urbino 12 hydrogen models and 14 Urbino 18 hydrogen articulated versions. This decision is a significant stride towards achieving an emission-free public transport system by the end of the decade. The ordered buses are scheduled for delivery in 2024 and mid-2025, showcasing the city’s commitment to adopting green mobility solutions.

    The Urbino 12 hydrogen and Urbino 18 hydrogen buses represent cutting-edge innovation in the realm of sustainable transport. These buses utilize hydrogen fuel cell energy to power quiet and emission-free electric traction motors. The Urbino 12 will boast 70 kW fuel cells, while the Urbino 18 will employ 100 kW, delivering a seamless and efficient travel experience.

    Solaris hydrogen buses stand out for their eco-friendliness, emitting only water vapor as a by-product. The use of reverse electrolysis of water generates electricity directly transferred to the propulsion system, eliminating harmful emissions. Passengers can enjoy optimal comfort and safety with features like a CO2 heat pump, modern passenger information systems, and efficient assistance systems (ADAS) that detect pedestrians and cyclists, enhancing overall road safety.

    As a European leader in the manufacturing and supply of modern, electric city buses, Solaris has been at the forefront of promoting sustainable urban mobility. With over 3,000 electric and hydrogen-propelled buses delivered so far, Solaris has made its mark in numerous countries, including Austria, France, Spain, the Netherlands, Germany, Poland, Slovakia, Switzerland, Sweden, and Italy.

    The integration of hydrogen-powered Solaris buses into Duisburg’s public transport system signifies a remarkable stride towards a cleaner, greener, and more sustainable future. As the world continues its journey towards a carbon-neutral society, embracing innovative technologies like hydrogen fuel cells becomes crucial. The move towards emission-free public transport not only aids in reducing carbon footprints but also sets an inspiring precedent for other cities to follow. With Duisburg’s visionary step, hydrogen-powered buses are likely to become a transformative force in urban transportation, paving the way for a cleaner and more sustainable future.
