Winnipeg Transit in Canada has achieved a significant milestone with the arrival of its first zero-emission bus as part of the ambitious Transition to Zero-Emission Bus Program. The city is set to introduce 16 zero-emission buses, a mix of fuel-cell and battery-electric models, onto its streets this spring. The deployment includes both 40-foot and 60-foot buses, making Winnipeg the first Canadian city to operate 60-foot ZEBs. These environmentally friendly buses will undergo thorough testing to assess factors like battery performance, energy efficiency, and operational costs, focusing on the most suitable technology for the city's climate. The Transition program, supported by $280.3 million funding, aims to acquire a total of 90 ZEBs, each expected to cut around 62 tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions yearly. This initiative is a key step towards a greener and more sustainable future for Winnipeg's public transportation system, aligning with the city's environmental objectives. Anticipated public service for the ZEBs will begin in April, following comprehensive testing to shape future electrification strategies and enhance environmental impact.
