Another 10 ultra-fast charging stations for environmentally friendly ground transport have been installed in the Novokosino district in the east of the capital. This will allow more electric bus routes to be opened and the operation of existing ones to be improved, said the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Transport and Industry Maxim Liksutov.
“We continue to expand the charging infrastructure at terminal stations. This allows us to replace buses with innovative Russian-made electric buses faster. In total, there are already more than 370 charging stations operating in the capital. We are developing environmentally friendly transport on behalf of Sergei Sobyanin,” said Maxim Liksutov.
Moscow remains the leader in the number of electric buses in Europe. More than 2.3 thousand Russian-made vehicles serve 190 routes. To replace buses with electric buses, the city is developing charging infrastructure. With the creation of new charging stations in Moscow, new electric bus routes are opening.
Charging stations for electric buses work in any weather and are suitable for all models of eco-friendly transport. The electric bus pantograph is connected to the charging dome, and the batteries are recharged.
In total, there are about 850 ground transportation routes in Moscow, covering all districts. On a weekday, on average, more than four million trips are made on all buses and electric buses in the capital. Passengers are transported by the most modern and convenient for all categories of citizens ground city transportation.
Moscow was the first in Russia to start building modern electric bus depots. In 2022, the first in Russia and the largest in Europe, Krasnaya Pakhra, opened in TiNAO. Eco-friendly vehicles first hit the routes in new districts. In the summer of 2023, the Mitino depot opened in the northwest of the capital. At the end of 2023, the third innovative electric bus depot, Saltykovka, opened. It serves routes in the east of the city.
Since 2022, the capital has been supplied with improved equipment. Such vehicles have adaptive interior lighting, which changes from a cold shade to a warm one at 14:00 for the comfort of passengers. The front route indicator, increased by 18 percent, makes it even easier to see the number from afar. The interior has an electric heater, which minimizes the impact on the environment and maintains an optimal temperature. The power reserve has increased from 40-50 kilometers to 80 kilometers, while the weight of the vehicle has remained the same. Since 2024, KAMAZ and LiAZ vehicles with an updated design have been entering service.
Electric buses are purchased under life cycle contracts. For 15 years after the vehicles are transferred to the Mosgortrans State Unitary Enterprise fleet, the manufacturers independently ensure the proper operation of the equipment on the routes.
The new technology increases the comfort of travel and reduces the impact on the environment. The cabin has climate control, there are chargers for phones, and the nearest stops are shown on media screens. For passengers with limited mobility, there is a folding ramp and driver call buttons. If necessary, they will help enter and leave the cabin. Strollers or bicycles can be conveniently placed on the storage area.
In 2023, Moscow signed the largest contract in Europe for the supply of 1,200 new electric buses. According to the State Budgetary Institution MosEcoMonitoring of the capital Department of Nature Management and Environmental Protection, the introduction of innovative vehicles on routes has made it possible to increase the total environmental impact of replacing buses with electric transport by almost two times.
In 2024, electric buses began to serve another 71 capital routes. This is twice as many as in 2023. Over 800 electric buses from PJSC KAMAZ and LLC LiAZ arrived in the fleets of GUP Mosgortrans, including 600 vehicles in a new, even more modern design. It is planned that by 2035, almost the entire fleet of GUP Mosgortrans will operate on electric traction.
