]]> The public transport operator Weser-Ems-Bus is excited to introduce six new hydrogen buses that will start operating in the Friesland district. This marks a significant step towards cleaner transportation.

Key Takeaways

  • Six H2.City Gold buses from CaetanoBus join Weser-Ems-Bus fleet
  • Buses will initially be refueled at a mobile hydrogen station in Jever, with plans for an official public station by 2026
  • The new vehicles offer up to 590 kilometers of range and are part of the larger DB Regio Bus initiative from Deutsche Bahn

Starting this year, these hydrogen buses will serve passengers in Friesland. The six H2.City Gold models come equipped with Toyota fuel cells that power their electric motors.

The buses can travel up to 590 kilometers on a single tank of hydrogen and are designed for optimal efficiency thanks to advanced tanks installed on the roof, providing a capacity of 37.5 kilograms of hydrogen each.

While these new vehicles will initially be refueled at a mobile station in Jever, plans are underway to establish an official public hydrogen fueling station by 2026 near Schortens. This move aims to support the growing demand for eco-friendly transportation options and encourage wider adoption of hydrogen technology.

Weser-Ems-Bus is proud to be at the forefront of this green revolution, with these buses being their first emissions-free vehicles in service. They’re also introducing two electric buses into the Ihlow region soon.
