Why electro mobility in
public transport?
Ulf Gustafsson
The Volvo Group’s vision is to become the world leader
in sustainable transport solutions by
creating value for
customers
in selected segments
pioneering products
and services for the
transport and infra-
structure industries
driving quality, safety
and environmental care
working with energy,
passion and respect
for the individual

• Energy efficiency combined with CO2 reduction.
• Improving local air quality
• Reducing disturbing Noise from traffic.
• Attract new passengers for public transport.
• TCO in line with or better than comparable alternatives
Our business case for
electrification is based on:
Efficiency and CO2 emissionsIndication of CO2 footprint (W to W) if the fuel is used to make electricity and
used in an electrical bus.
* Reference: Based on average CO2 reduction 2014, issued by Swedish Energy Agency.

Efficiency and CO2 emissionsBuying renewable energy? One alternative is GoldPower, supported by WWF

GoldPower is supported by WWF because, unlike
most conventional green power options, GoldPower
demonstrably stimulates new investments in new
renewable energy capacity and is certified to reduce greenhouse gas emissions beyond business as usual.
WWF recommends GoldPower to companies that want
to drive quality renewable electricity solutions.”
Bus Rapid Transit
� Fast
� Low emissions
� Quiet
� Cost effective
� Flexible
� High capacity
PTx2New type of vehicles has to be combined with
investments in traffic infrastructure.

Urban planningUtilizing the features electrified buses have
The absence of noise and
local exhaust emissions is
opening grate opportunity's
for urban planning.
Providing a new tool for to
build a more dense city.
Making public transport more
accessible. Hence, more
attractive.

Members of sensitive groups may experience
health effects. The general public is not likely
to be affected.
