Dublin, May 12, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Electric Bus Market by Propulsion Type, Length, Range, Battery Capacity, Power Output: Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2021-2031" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The Electric Bus Market is expected to experience a significant growth rate of 29.5% from 2022 to 2031 owing to the rising number of low-emission buses globally.

This report provides a quantitative analysis of the market segments, current trends, estimations, and dynamics of the electric bus market analysis from 2021 to 2031 to identify the prevailing electric bus market opportunities.

Electric buses are driven by an electric motor powered by on-board batteries. As these buses run completely on the battery itself, they require re-charging once drained, unlike refueling in the case of ICE buses. E-buses are more efficient than ICE buses in power delivery, torque, and maintenance and are pollution free. Therefore, electric buses are considered the future of public transport systems.

The electric bus market is driven by factors such as an increase in demand for fuel-efficient, high-performance, & low-emission buses, stringent government rules and regulations toward vehicle emission, and reduction in battery prices. However, high manufacturing costs and low fuel economy & serviceability restrict the market growth. Moreover, technological advancements and proactive government initiatives create lucrative growth opportunities for the market.

In addition, electric buses are noise-free, have zero emission, and are an efficient mode of transportation with a lower maintenance cost, which in turn, makes them the preferred choice for fleet owners. In addition, factor such as increasing government initiatives for the promotion of electrification is expected to drive market growth during the forecast year. For instance, in July 2021, the National Transport Authority of Ireland signed a contract with Alexander Dennis Limited and BYD UK for 200 BYD ADL Enviro200EV zero-emission battery-electric buses.

The global e-bus market is segmented on the basis of propulsion type, length, range, battery capacity, power output, and region.

By propulsion type, the market is segmented into battery electric vehicle, plug-in hybrid electric vehicle and fuel cell electric vehicle. Further, by length, the market is segmented into less than 9 meters, 9-14 meters, and above 14 meters.

By range, the market is segmented into 150 miles, 150 To 300 miles and above 300 miles. Moreover, the market is segmented based on battery capacity into less than 50 kWh, 50-250 kWh and above 250 kWh.
