To further unleash the potential of BRT systems and electric mobility around the globe, the eBRT2030 project was launched in 2023 to demonstrate the applicability of a new generation of (E)BRT systems in different urban contexts with innovative solutions such as automation and connectivity.
This new publication aims to serve as a baseline describing the state-of-the-art of (E)BRT systems around the world, creating a benchmark for the project. The report examines the European context for the implementation of BRT systems and the impact of electrification on BRTs, with an overview of governance and planning for implementation of these systems.
The report can be used by operators, authorities and other experts across the world as a starting point on how to define and characterise (E)BRT, while also looking at what has already been implemented in the rest of the world. This makes the deliverable an important baseline against which innovations will be developed, tested and evaluated, so to produce the new concept for innovative European electric BRT systems.
