Market Overview & Dynamics: E-bus penetration to Multifold during The Forecast Period

The market for electric buses is forecast to grow at a rate of 32-35% over the 2022-2028 period. The global market for electric buses will continue to grow with the support of subsidies from regional governments, domestic regulations, and decarbonizing.

With government funding, increased cost economies, and batteries leading to greater efficiency, the global electric bus market will experience significant growth over the next few years. Participants in the electric bus market face many challenges, including high up-front costs, technical problems with operation, and low margins.

China is still the market leader in electric buses, accounting for 95% of global e-bus fleets by 2021. Europe follows. Major European cities such as London (UK), Copenhagen, Denmark, Paris (France), and Madrid (Spain), have made commitments to purchase zero-emission electric buses. This has fuelled the growth in electric bus sales. The demand for electric buses is increasing due to regional electrification plans. Germany, for instance, has set a goal to sell half of its urban buses powered by BEV or hybrid technology by 2030. Chile, on the other hand, has set a goal to electrify 25% 2025 of the city’s public transport bus fleet.

Segmental Analysis

• The global electric bus market is dominated by the BEV propulsion segment. The reason is that subsidies for BEVs were cut by China’s government from 35% to 50%
• Based on the end-user segment of the market, the government segment and the private segment will lead the market because they have high buying volumes.
• Due to their favorable policies and high adoption of electric buses, Europe and China are expected to dominate the Electric Bus markets. India is projected to experience strong growth over the forecast period due to government plans to electrify public transit.
