In Germany, Solaris reported that Busreisen Ettenhuber GmbH and Martin Geldhauser GmbH & Co KG., two private bus carriers from Bavaria, already received the 10 Solaris Urbino 12 hydrogen buses that were ordered in April last year. Solaris noted that these buses will enrich emission-free public transport in the Munich and Ebersberg regions.
In coordination with the districts of Munich and Ebersberg and the Munich Transport Authority (MVV), it was agreed that the vehicles would be deployed on different routes to gain extensive experience regarding route lengths, weather conditions, capacity utilization and many other variables in this pilot project, Solaris added.
The buses are scheduled to enter regular service this fall, coinciding with the completion of hydrogen filling stations currently under construction at the Geldhauser and Ettenhuber depots. These stations will be supplied with green hydrogen produced exclusively from renewable energy, the company added.
