Please note: The survey has now concluded. Thank you for taking the time to provide your valuable insights.


A Transition to Zero Emission Buses

Transport for NSW is committed to transitioning its fleet of 8,000 plus diesel and compressed natural gas buses to zero emissions technology. The project supports key government initiatives to reaching net zero CO2 emissions by 2050 and will deliver significant environmental, economic and customer benefits.

Key benefits:

  • Lower greenhouse gas emissions and better air quality
  • Reduced noise
  • More comfortable bus journeys
  • Potential boost to NSW economy and regional industry development
  • Skills training in emerging technologies
  • Improved amenity around bus depots
  • Smarter technology for bus operations

None of this is possible without your valuable input and so we have developed a survey which is designed to assist Transport for NSW understand the opportunities, challenges and constraints of transitioning to ZEB technology in Regional and Outer Metropolitan areas. The objectives of gathering your feedback are to:

  • Develop a higher level of detail on technical requirements including bus fleet, depots and charging implementation options
  • Identify current technology options on the market e.g. new battery electric bus products/configurations
  • Gain a deeper understanding of the unique challenges posed and potential mitigations with transitioning to ZEB in regional areas
  • Re-validate or update current ZEB transition planning in line with operator expectations

We sincerely appreciate you taking the time to complete this survey to assist us in the future of zero emission bus transition.
