We are the only worldwide network to bring together all public transport stakeholders
and all sustainable transport modes around the same table
• Operators
• Authorities
• Policy decision-makers
• Research institutes
• The PT supply and service industry
OUR CHALLENGE TODAY…
REDEFINING PUBLIC TRANSPORT
• Pushing the boundaries
• People-driven mindset
• New governance models
Without public transport,
other sustainable &
innovative mobility services
cannot offer an affordable
alternative to car
ownership
PUBLIC TRANSPORT IS PART OF THE SOLUTION
• Transport represents 40% of CO2 emissions in our cities
• Bus sector, particularly, can contribute to reduce (yet more) emissions
and address the climate crisis
• Fleet renewal with clean vehicles
• We call on global policy makers & national governments to recognise
the major role of public transport to tackle local air pollution and
climate change
• In 2020, public transport shall appear on EVERY national gov plan…
So… what’s your plan?
ONE PLANET, ONE PLAN!
1. PRIORITISE accessible, safe, breathable
and walkable streets through urban
planning
2. STRENGTHEN public transport’s role as
the backbone of all mobility services
3. GUARANTEE financial incentives and a
regulatory framework for an emission
transition
4. ENSURE renewable energy sources are
accessible to further reduce carbon
footprint.

WHY CLEAN BUSES?
• Climate change, pollution,
congestion, and noise as biggest
challenges for cities
• Policies on decarbonisation & clean
bus technologies are driving both
market and cities towards clean
buses
• Cities have political will, but lack the
capabilities and know-how
CLEAN VEHICLES DIRECTIVEMandatory procurement quotas for buses
ACCELERATED DEPLOYMENT OF CLEAN AND
ENERGY EFFICIENT BUSES
• Mandatory min procurement targets for clean buses for 2025 and 2030
• Challenge for cities, authorities and operators
• Exchange of expertise can facilitate the transition towards clean buses

CLEAN BUS DEPLOYMENT PLATFORM
UITP as coordinator of the APOLLO EU Consortium will implement a new
platform under the European Clean Bus Deployment Initiative of the EC
• Brings together European transport authorities and operators to support
the exchange of knowledge and expertise on clean bus deployment
• Assists them in the learning & transition process
• Ensures that technical, procedural and operational know-how on clean
bus deployment is passed on beyond the circle of front-runners cities.
A LARGE & DYNAMIC NETWORK
Cities
• 62 cities and regions out of 26 MS
• 74 PTOs, PTAs and city authorities of
• 12 Host and 50 Target cities on board
