Hundreds of new electric buses broke down in Norway's capital after heavy snowstorms. The city wants to make local public transport completely emission-free by the end of 2024.
183 electric buses were delivered last May by the Polish manufacturer Solaris, and 76 more by MAN. After 100 years of diesel, the switch to an electric fleet is a historical change, explains driver Mukhtar Ahmad. The Polish buses alone cost the equivalent of 100 million euros, according to the city's bus company, Urbino.
