The Górnośląsko-Zagłębiowska Metropolia in Poland has announced a tender for the purchase of electric buses and chargers under the Hydrogen GZM and Green Transport GZM Phase II project.
This tender was published on March 24, 2025, and interested parties must submit their proposals by April 25, 2025. This initiative is significant for the hydrogen industry as it reflects the region’s commitment to sustainable and zero-emission transport solutions, marking a potential expansion in the use of hydrogen technologies.
The primary objective of this tender is to procure 42 new low-floor electric buses and 25 wired chargers. These buses, divided into categories based on size and emission type, include two-axle, zero-emission buses and larger three-axle buses. Such acquisitions are expected to enhance public transport services with environmentally-friendly vehicles, reducing carbon emissions and promoting cleaner urban environments.
The specifications for the electric buses include strict requirements regarding their dimensions, ensuring they are well-suited for urban conditions. The chargers are also categorized by power capacity, featuring both dual-station chargers of 180 kW and single-station chargers of 200 kW. Such detailed technical specifications ensure compatibility with existing transport infrastructure while extending functionality through substantial power support.
This shift towards hydrogen and electric mobility within public transport not only invigorates the locomotive sector but also accelerates the adoption of sustainable practices across Poland. By incorporating these technologies, the tender fosters significant advancements in regional transport efficiency and environmental stewardship, setting an example for sustainable urban development.
