Procurement of new buses with low harmful gases emission (conventional and alternative fuels)

The project involves the procurement of new buses with low emissions of harmful pollutants, running on conventional and alternative fuels. It is planned to be carried out in two phases. The first phase concerns the acquisition of 20 to 30 compressed natural gas buses, valued at €5,300,000 to €7,900,000. The second phase includes the procurement of 20 to 30 electric buses or buses achieving carbon neutrality (zero CO2 emissions) in accordance with EU requirements, valued at €11,030,000 to €16,600,000.

First phase: €5,300,000 to €7,900,000, second phase: €11,030,000 to €16,600,000

For the reference period of 2021 – 2027, KD Autotrolej is expected to replace 55 buses. These are older diesel buses that would be between 15 and 20 years old by 2027. It is planned to gradually phase out these buses and replace them with new vehicles. The procurement of new buses would be carried out in multiple phases, with tenders being issued for the allocation of financial resources.

First phase: Procurement of 20 to 30 buses running on compressed natural gas.

Second phase: Procurement of 20 to 30 buses running on electric power or buses achieving carbon neutrality (zero CO2 emissions) in accordance with EU requirements.
