World’s first solar electric bus unveiled in Adelaide

Bright red double decker buses have long been one of the iconic images of London, but with the days of the diesel dinosaurs at an end, it is solar and link fuel cell buses that could be the icons of the future.

Hydrogen and electric hybrid buses are already in service in London and bus fleets across the world, but this month, the Adelaide City Council took the future of public transport a step further by introducing the world’s first solar-powered electric bus to their city streets.

Called Tindo – the Kaurna Aboriginal word for sun – the bus is the first in the world to be recharged using 100% solar link, generated by a unique solar photovoltaic (PV) system installed on the roof of the new Adelaide Central Bus Station.

Adelaide Lord Mayor, Michael Harbison, says the bus will be used every day as a free service for the people of Adelaide through the City Council’s free Adelaide Connector Bus service. You can find the entire article here link
