Wrightbus, a UK-based manufacturer, has supplied twelve fuel cell buses to WestVerkehr GmbH in Germany, adding to the growing fleet of hydrogen buses in the country. This partnership will see the deployment of the Kite Hydroliner FCEV buses in the Heinsberg, Hückelhoven, and Erkelenz regions, close to the Netherlands border. The CEO of Wrightbus Group announced plans to have around 130 hydrogen buses in operation by the end of 2025, furthering the adoption of green energy in public transport. In addition to the bus deliveries, Wrightbus has established a European service center in Brühl, a move towards building a network of service centers across the continent. The buses meet stringent safety standards set by the VDV and the European General Safety Regulation, ensuring a safe and sustainable mode of transportation. The green hydrogen supply for the buses is sourced from the H2HS project, showcasing a commitment to environmentally friendly mobility. The involvement of various companies and government bodies, including the Federal Ministry, in supporting the shift to alternative drive systems reflects a positive sentiment towards hydrogen technology. The State Secretary highlighted the benefits of hydrogen buses in reducing noise levels and pollution, ultimately improving the quality of life and environment for residents. The ceremonial commissioning of the buses symbolized a step towards innovative, emission-free public transport in the region.
