The North America bus market size is expected to reach USD 12.23 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 10.3 % over the forecast period, according to a study conducted by the publisher. The growth is attributed to the active electrification of school buses in the U.S. owing to government and private entities announcing initiatives for buying school buses or leasing them to district schools.
Additionally, the growing traction of buses in the U.S. is attributed to the revamping of highway infrastructure throughout the country, the electrification of public transit bus fleet by the different state governments, growing investment in bus charging infrastructure, the development of electric bus fleet by private transit service operators, and aggressive investment by the school and federal government to electrify school buses fleet with the country.
Governments in the region have implemented stringent environmental rules and regulations, which are promoting electric buses more quickly, fueling the industry expansion. For instance, in April 2022, Kathy Hochul, the governor of New York, and legislators agreed on a state budget worth USD 220 billion. It included a proposal to convert approximately 50,000 school buses to 100% electric by 2035.
While advancing the objectives of the Climate Act, the proposal aimed to enhance the air quality in New York State. By 2027, it required all new school bus procurements to be zero-emission. By 2035, it required all school buses operating on public roads to be zero-emission buses, according to the additional legislation that Governor Hochul plans to propose in the future. Additionally, the governments of developed countries have processed the tender to increase the use of electric buses in cities. For instance, in the U.S., a program launched by California Air Resources Board (CARB) included guidelines for the manufacturers for producing emission-free vehicles, thereby driving the demand for electric buses.
The significant growth of the North America buses market can also be attributed to the growing use of Intelligent Transport Systems (ITSs), which consist of technologies such as electronics, data processing, wireless connectivity, and control, making public transportation secure, effective, and convenient. ITSs can significantly boost the capacity and speed of transportation by autonomously adjusting traffic signal timings with real-time traffic and passenger information.
