But the market is still relatively immature and there are still technical and operational challenges, such as the capital cost of EV buses. Many cities have invested in legacy diesel buses, and have a mix of public and private bus providers. How have cities overcome these challenges? How have cities worked with manufacturers and private firms to rapidly scale-up the use of electric buses?
