Global electric vehicle market is growing at a rapid pace with the increase in fuel prices and the overall awareness spread regarding the hazardous effects of emissions from conventional vehicles.

With major countries opting for electric buses for their public transport means, the global electric bus market is gaining a forward push to reach the all-time high revenue figures during the forecast period (2022– 2030). The evolution of electric vehicles reduces carbon and other hazardous emissions into the atmosphere. Along with this, the increase in demand for fuel-efficient vehicles with high performance and low emissions is driving the electric vehicles market on a positive note.

High Demand for Fuel-Efficient, High-Performance and Low Emission Buses Driving the Global Electric Bus Market Growth

The conventional fuels like petrol and diesel will not be there as these are not renewable sources of energy and will soon get exhausted with time. To support sustainable development and environment saving activities, there was a need to find alternative sources of fuel, which led to the evolution of electric vehicles. Electric buses are way more economical than conventionally fueled buses, as the electric bus converts over 50% of the electric energy from the grid power at the wheels. The demand for electric vehicles has increased with the high performance and the high fuel efficiency offered. At one full charge, an electric bus can travel up to 150kms of distance, which is just amazing and cost-saving.

Reduction in Battery Prices Boosting Global Electric Bus Market Growth

Electric vehicles can’t be worked constantly on an AC power supply due to power fluctuations. Hence all such vehicles work on a DC power supply and use batteries to store the energy. For this, Li-Ion batteries are utilised in the electric vehicles that power the whole vehicle alongside every one of the extras inside the transport. The expense of batteries was a vital worry for the vehicle specialists, as the expense of an electric vehicle’s battery was way higher. It has a significant influence on the general cost of an electric bus.

Thus, the battery packs are considered a significant expense part that influences the market development in the long run. However, presently, the costs of electric vehicle batteries have gone down with the innovative headways occurring in the electric vehicles portion. This is ending up one more driving variable for the global electric bus market, as the primary expense part for electric transport is accessible at a negligible expense and thus expanding the buy amount.

Technological Advancements and Government Initiatives Create Huge Opportunities in the Global Electric Bus Market

There have been mass technological changes in electric vehicles since their introduction in 2010. The battery capacity, increased performance and efficiency, designs and aesthetics, IoT connected buses, fleet systems, etc., are some of the technological advancements in the electric vehicle segment in recent years. The near future will see the giant technological evolution in electric vehicles that may see favourable changes in the electric buses as far as technology is concerned, which has opened a wide range of opportunities in the Research & Development, Manufacturing, Electric technology, Artificial Intelligence in electric buses, fleet management services, etc.
