"Battery-electric buses reached 36% of new city bus sales in 2023 in the EU,
overtaking diesel as the main bus fuel type for the first time. At this growth
rate, 100% of new EU city buses could already be zero-emission (ZE) by 2027.
This only proves that EU regulation is falling behind market realities. The
recently adopted CO2 standards for heavy-duty vehicles (HDVs) require 90% of
new city buses to be ZE by 2030, and 100% by 2035. The even less ambitious
Clean Vehicles Directive (CVD) sets average ZE procurement targets of only 20%
in 2021–2025 and 30% in 2026–2030."
