Asia Pacific Bus Market Outlook Report 2021-2030

Transit agencies/authorities in the Asia Pacific are increasingly focusing on the deployment of buses (diesel, CNG, electric, hydrogen-fuelled, etc.) and modernization of existing bus infrastructure. There is an increasing trend to deploy clean fuel buses and targets have also been set for the introduction of zero-emission buses and installation of infrastructure by 2030. For instance, India plans to become a 100 percent electric-vehicle nation by 2030; Taiwan aims to deploy an all-electric bus fleet by 2030, and Singapore plans to have a fully electric bus fleet by 2040. Increasing emphasis is also being laid on the deployment of CNG buses, with recent procurement plans announced in India, Azerbaijan, and Kazakhstan. The uptake of hydrogen buses is comparatively slower in the region, but China, Japan and Australia are making headway in this area.

To highlight the opportunities in the bus market in the Asia Pacific region, the publisher has launched its first edition of the Asia Pacific Bus Market Outlook Report 2021-2030, the most comprehensive and up-to-date study on this segment. The report will provide detailed information on 75 cities in 23 countries, which have recorded bus-related developments in the last year and have significant plans to deploy urban and clean buses (including zero-emission buses) in the future.

The report will comprise two distinct sections:

Part 1 of the report (PPT format converted to PDF) will provide an analysis of current bus market size, impact of COVID-19 on the bus market in the region, bus rolling stock (by fuel-type, sub-regions, and age), ridership trends, federal and city government policies impacting the bus market, operating models, key operators, funding and finance, key pilots, key trends, and recent developments in the region. It will also provide a comprehensive market outlook; details of the planned bus rolling stock procurements (by fuel type, countries, and geographical variation in demand), planned fueling/charging infrastructure (EV charging, hydrogen fueling, biomethane fueling, and CNG fueling), upcoming bus-based infrastructure projects and nationwide plans for the deployment of clean buses; investment projections; list open tenders, and discuss key risks and challenges.

Part 2 of the report (city profiles in PPT format and information in MS Excel database) will provide updated information on 75 cities. Each city profile will provide information on:

• City background
• City authorities, agencies, developers and operators
• Key federal government policies impacting the city
• Key city-level policies for deployment of buses
• Current network and infrastructure (routes, stops, depots, fueling stations, etc.)
• Current bus ridership
• Modal share
• Existing bus rolling stock (by fuel type, age, supplier, etc.)
• Capex plans
• Projections for bus procurements, replacements and modernisation
• Planned investments
• New bus procurement plans (by type)
• Bus modernisation plans
• Technology initiatives
• Infrastructure expansion and upgrades
• Autonomous buses/ shuttles
• Open tenders
• Key contracts awarded
• Recent developments
• Contact personnel

The report will be useful to organisations interested in the Asia Pacific bus market- public transport authorities/agencies and operators, government transport departments, city governments, policymaking and regulatory bodies, bus OEMs and technology providers, infrastructure OEMs, charging solution suppliers and battery manufacturers, energy providers, multilateral aid agencies, banks and financial institutions, academic institutions, research and development organisations, consultants, etc.
