Moscow is actively developing environmentally friendly and comfortable ground electric transport. Electric buses are being introduced to the routes instead of buses, which makes trips around the city even more comfortable and improves the ecology of the capital. Infrastructure for servicing innovative vehicles is also being created. Thus, the Novokosino park has become the sixth site that services only electric buses. This was reported by the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Transport and Industry Maxim Liksutov.
Currently, more than 500 drivers work here, providing operation of 30 electric bus routes.
“We are modernizing Mosgortrans operational sites for a complete transition to electric transport on behalf of Sergei Sobyanin. Today, more than 280 innovative electric buses operate in Novokosino. Russian vehicles provide comfortable and safe trips in 30 districts of Moscow and in three urban districts of the Moscow region,” added Maxim Liksutov.
At the site, specialists check the serviceability of all electric bus systems, wash the vehicles and inspect their interiors for foreign objects, and charge the batteries. In addition, representatives of the manufacturer conduct scheduled inspections and maintenance of the equipment here.
Since 2022, improved equipment has been delivered to the capital. Such vehicles have adaptive interior lighting, which changes from a cold shade to a warm one at 2 p.m. for passenger comfort. The front route indicator, increased by 18 percent, allows you to see the number from afar. The interior is heated by an electric heater, which does not affect the environment and maintains an optimal temperature. The power reserve has increased from 40-50 to 80 kilometers. At the same time, the weight of the vehicle remains the same. In 2024, KAMAZ and LiAZ trucks with an updated design entered service.
Innovative transport is serviced at 12 Mosgortrans sites. Moscow was the first in Russia to start building modern electric bus parks. In 2022, the first in Russia and the largest in Europe electric bus park “Krasnaya Pakhra” opened in TiNAO. Eco-friendly vehicles went on routes in TiNAO. A year later, the “Mitino” park was built in the northwest. At the end of 2023, the third innovative park, “Saltykovka”, was launched. It is intended for electric buses running in the east of the city.
Electric buses are serviced under life cycle contracts. For 15 years after the transfer of vehicles to the Mosgortrans fleet, manufacturers independently ensure the proper operation of equipment on routes. With new deliveries and the development of charging infrastructure, even more electric buses will replace buses. They will make travel more comfortable for Muscovites and visitors to the capital. The impact on the environment will also be reduced.
In 2023, Moscow signed contracts with PJSC KAMAZ and LLC LiAZ for the supply of 1.2 thousand electric buses. This is the largest purchase of this type of transport in Europe. Under an additional agreement with PJSC KAMAZ, another 100 modern vehicles arrived in Moscow.
Since 2023, 1.3 thousand innovative electric buses have already been delivered to the capital. Eco-friendly transport operates on more than 20 percent of the city’s routes. In total, Moscow has purchased over 2,350 electric buses since 2018.
